Damn....4 amps....smdh...that WAS NOT part of the plan, lol

Back to the drawing board.
No no no lol. 2 6 channel amps. 12 channels total
10 sub- 2 channels
10 sub 2 channels
7.7 swim deck 2 channels
7.7 pods 2 channels
7.7 Anchor locker 2 channels
4 6.5s bridged into 2 channels
2 6.5 not hooked up.
Need another 6 channel or a 4 to just get by. But another 6 channel will give me room just in case i buy another bit or 2 for the dremal tool.

Sorry bro....I meant me....I have 3 amps, need more power, lol...so I was saying 4 amps was not part of my plan....3 was it!

these JLs only kick out 100 rms at 2ohms, so most of our setups are getting 60rms @12v and 75 @14.4 but I assume the 75 is real world based on Jl under ratting their speakers. Unless Im reading their specs wrong?

Anyone on here capable of benching any of these JL Marine amps?

About 100 feet or so between each boat

We have a house rented for June 9th weekend at Lake George, just north of Silver Glenn Springs. There is a large jet ski meet going on that Saturday. We will be on the lake both days, will be nice to let the boat see some fresh water.

I am not sure what the plans are for memorial day weekend yet. I know we are planning to go out Sunday not Monday, but haven't set a location yet.
