I just ordered two pairs of JL Audio m650 speakers to replace the blown-out speakers in recently purchased boat. It also has a single DIN head unit that doesn't work. Now I'm looking for an amp and a new head unit. The JL Audio marine 4 channel amp is around $450, and there's a Rockford Fosgate marine 4 channel amp for around $290. Both output sufficient power for these speakers. Does anyone have any advice on whether it's worth it to go with the more expensive JL amp? Any other amp suggestions?
Also, what accessories should I order in addition to the amp and head unit for this installation? Any advice/input is appreciated!
