I was wondering if anyone cared to share their install pics of what they have in their boat! the good, the bad, and the ugly so to speak. What to do and not to do! Im thinking two 6X9's and running a amp in my starboard side rod box and have my rca wires running out to my Ipod or my Iphone at the console! looking for any and all info! thanks.

not a bass boat if you put in a stereo. it is then a party boat!
all kidding aside, be careful and get a good seal and mount on the speakers. rough chop can cause all kinds of problems for speakers and wiring. solder whenever possible and buy marine grade.

Those would probably be some excellent sounding speakers. I've got a cheap setup of Boss 6.5 3 way speakers and a Boss head unit. You can hear it running down the lake over the motor so it's good enough for me.

I'm gonna hook them up to a Rockford 300.2 amp so these speakers should be loud ![banana banana](/forums/images/graemlins/default/banana.gif)

Yes they should hahahaha. I love good audio but haven't messed with it at all in a few years since I sold my Lexus. I'd probably consider doing it to my boat as well but there are so many other things to blow money on like power poles, side scan, and the dang tackle monkey.

Evan O Brien has a decent setup in his triton. He often plays the soothing sounds of Lionell Richie to lull the double digit bass, relaxing them to the point where they will bite anything he presents. ![](https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/189991_10150192870633082_621728081_8960844_1282646_n.jpg) seriously tho, Im pretty sure EoB added his speakers after purchase of his boat, and I THINK they are in boxes, not hard mounted in the hull. great setup. sounds good too.

Hey Cory don't know if you already got those speakers or not but looks like from the link you sent those are out of stock. Thanks for reminding me of crutchfield though. Great site! Newegg is another good one as well. As for the install I can't help you ![smirk smirk](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smirk.gif)

I have speakers in my boat, but dont hardly listen to them while im fishing, unless its the mcdonalds or something to hear for the weights of fish be weighed in. And i would be leary about an amp cause it will draw on your battery pretty bad.

Hmmm I wonder if he can show me a pic or an idea of how he has it setup! shoot him a PM, I think he may still be out of town, but EoB is one of the most friendly helpful dudes out there. Im sure he wont mind offering his opinion when he has a free minute. Just dont tell him I talked nicely about him. ![cheers cheers](/forums/images/graemlins/default/cheers.gif)

Cory doesn't that phone of yours make enough noise as it is? Why do you need more noise in your boat?
Cory fiddles with his iPhone as much as his fishing rod out at Falcon!!!!! :P
