Setting up new system (marine) Looking for some recommendations!

[nutshellml]

Hope a audiophile can give me some advice... Eventhough the system is for my boat, the questions I have are general to audio.

I have a 21' bowrider and am redoing my stereo system. New head unit (probably sony marine), Amp Kicker 700.5, subwoofer Bazooka 8 or 10" enclosure (non-amplified). Keeping my 4 Infinity 6.5 speakers

Questions

1) Anyone have any reviews on the Bazooka 8/10" enclosures (MBT-8014 / 1014)

2) I would have like to put the 10" but doesn't fit under my seat so I am going to use the 8". How much of a sound difference will it be? I'm not a teen looking for a huge BOOMING system but do want it to sound good/complete.

3) Any other recommendations on the system?

Thanks in advance!!

use marine speakers and amps you will regret using car audio stuff in most cases. I have seen it work fine but more times than not i have seen the ill effects of humidity destroy stuff.

Most brands 'marine' speakers/amps are mechanically the same as their normal caraudio versions
