Hey guys,

looking to completely revamp the sound system in my boat. everything from radio to amps, subs and all speakers. Anyone have a build they have done that they are happy with?

What is the budget you're working with?
What kind of results are you looking for (system that you can hear across the lake or something that sound pretty good while surfing or hanging out)?

In my last boat I had a system with 6 6.5" Polk Audio in-boats, 4 6.5" Polk Audio tower speakers, 1 10" Polk sub, and 2 cheap Kenworth amps. It was a budget system, but sounded good while surfing and hanging out. My current boat is all Wetsounds (6 6.5" in-boats, 12" sub, 2 Rev 8s and 2 Amps). Obviously the system in the current boat is superior, but at a significantly higher cost.

I typed "Kenworth" (That's a Semi truck not audio equipment. Haha). What I meant was "Kenwood".
