i was at a lake the other day and some boat had some music playing, LOUD. he floated away to probly a good half mile or so, and i could still hear the **** music. not the bass, the highs. is marine audio alot louder tha normal car speakers due to wind and motor noise? what if i put some in my car //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

ok w/e well my question was are they made to be louder under normal circumstances? are the speakers themselves amplified? they were **** loud. unless those kids decided to put a grand worth of speakers in in and some amps, but i doubt it.

The sound is bouncing off the lake and is louder. Just like when you shout across a pond, etc, it is easier to hear because the water doesn't absorb the sound waves like trees, grass, etc.

There's no car around it to hold the sound in, and it is much quieter on the lake than in town. You'll hear the same sound from farther away in a quieter environment.

I remember BABB having some killer alumnium salt water resistant subs a few years back, but I havent heard from them in a while. Might want to google Babb Audio

Im thinking of putting my old car system parts in my boat. It stays in a slip in the ocean. I wonder how long it will last and if there is anything I can do to make it last longer. Maybe corrosion x or some other lube to keep the corrosin away. Any suggestions? I already have the stuff from upgrading and dont have the money for marine stuff. Ill probabily replace stuff asa it shitsss the bed with marine stuff.
