[QUOTE="05LSV, post: 3104643, member: 578016"] There are a few pics on a Wakeside page I did a while back during the install. There have been some cosmetic changes since they were taken so keep that in mind. The wiring is cleaned up and there are 2 carpeted fascia boards in place over each of the subs that make them "appear" to be built in. [URL="http://www.wakesiderides.com/rides/index.php?page=out&id=1005"]http://www.wakesiderides.com/rides/index.php?page=out&id=1005[/URL] The boat sounds good, don't get me wrong - it's loud and clean and it does hit, but at higher volume, the bass doesn't continue to get louder and clearer, it starts getting muffled, which I think it probably a result of the Memphis amps being a bit too little in the power department when paired with the L7's. You mentioned that the L7 can handle massive amounts of clean power - would it be wise to go too far above a 2000.1 amp? It would seem like that would probably pound pretty hard and wouldn't kill my batteries too much. About the Hifonics - is Hifonics a decent brand? No offense to any owners intended, but I always regarded Hifonics as a flea market brand. Have they changed their game and are a respectable manufacturer now? Other amp suggestions welcome. [/QUOTE]
