You guys are killing me!
I am going to follow @wallacerb and add 7.7 on the back swimdeck
ordered a pair of JL 7.7 and another JL 600/6 amp
Lol, you're welcome. You will like them, they fill in an empty sound area very nicely. .

Interesting location. I assume this prevents you from using the anchor holder with an anchor? Do you have a photo of the locker with the speakers installed to show how far they intrude? Did you cover the insides at all?
Here are some better pics of the location. In hindsight I should have moved them lower and moved them closer together. That would've avoided having to cut that lip at the top. 20180407_121920.jpg 20180407_121926.jpg 20180407_121930.jpg 20180407_121937.jpg 20180407_121920.jpg 20180407_121926.jpg 20180407_121930.jpg 20180407_121937.jpg

I noticed yesterday my anchor locker gets pretty full while in a no wake zone, not sure if it supposed to do that, but would concern me with this.

Looks great....a few more 880s will def do the trick @wallacerb.

What are you powering those with now? You added a 3rd amp I see.

I've contemplated adding a second pair but man I've hit my head already a few times on the one pair I have....guess I need to learn to duck.

Got another trick up my sleeve before I try another set of towers.

I think your all set then!!

Those 880s play for sure let alone 2...esp with 200rms each.

2 house batteries or 3?

I feel a 4th amp coming with my phase 3 upgrades and hate to need to add another battery...well see.

Were you only running 2 amps before this...how is your playing time with your current setup?

Oh oh....lol,
What’s the trick? What are you up too now?
By the way, was out in Havasu this weekend. Was real nice out there. Perfect weather...93’-95’. Nice 76 ‘ in the evening.
I did hit my head on the second set of 880’s but the sound dulled the pain
Just hit my head once actually. I learned real quick. Sure you will too if you get them.

Nice...my buddy was out there too....

I'm going this weekend and prob again on the 18th, well have to connect one time.

Are you going for Memorial day?


I'm working on another "minor" upgrade that should give me what I'm looking for...once I pull the trigger I'll be sure to post pics. If this doesn't work I will be adding another set of 880s.

I got hear both boats yesterday. Drift Aways is pretty darn loud, just heard it from inside. Wallecerbs is just ridiculous. They hooked up the wetlinks I couldn't hear Drift Aways boat anymore. I am coming for these guys, it just might take me a a year or two to catch up lol. I feel bad for anybody at Anclote that tries to keep up.
