[QUOTE="Boat_guy, post: 8363405, member: 658935"] Wow kory she's a beauty, what year look to be about a 1984. I see you take very good care of your toys so I have no problem suggesting car audio equipment instead of marine. The two subs that will be exposed id watch the surround closely for deterioration. As for speaker I do tend to suggest marine based speakers because the tend to see the most sunlight, but car audio speakers that have a rubber based surround tend to last. A lot of ppl do end up putting coaxial style speakers in they tend to be a bit cheaper but I like the sound much better of component set. I'm going to list off a few companies you can look into for your speaker JL Audio, Wet Sounds, Exile Audio, Polk Audio, Rockford Fosgatd, Infinity Audio those companies all make marine grade speakers and all make a good product. A few non marine speaker companies would be RE Audio and Alpine. Alpine is currently doing a complete redesign of there marine line so there are a few places out there that still have some of there marine rated stuff. As for your power I would have one alternator charge your batteries for the boats functions, starters, nav lights, interior light and so on. Then the other alternator charger your batteries for your stereo that way there is no chance of killing the starter batteries. [/QUOTE]
