Jscann Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 In need of some new marine speakers. I like the jl audios but not the price . Is there anything out there that is close to quality for budget price. What are y'all running!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldestCityLocal Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Just bought jl audio for 230$ something I believe went with a cheap amp that had Bluetooth with 400 watts max. Love it. Really load and clear. Total set up cost about 300$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were me, I would save up till I had enough for JL's. If anything get "MX" series instead of "M" series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernWake Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 So I went back and forth on JL or other. I ended up with a pair of Sony. They are plenty loud to hear while driving around and at the sandbar while by the boat. I got them and an amp for just over $100 and with most of my listening coming over a screaming 2 stroke sound quality isn't a priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jscann Posted July 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Sounds like I need to save up then for jl speakers. Another thing . Do I have to run an amp or would head unit push them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsnook35 Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 I have Rockford fosgates becuase I wouldn't bring myself to pony up for the JLs. When I replace it will either be the same or same size JLs. These have really surprised me and everyone else who has heard them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEM Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 I initially installed just JL's without an amp. Foolish decision if you want to listen while running. Came back with the 400/4 amp. Great sound that easily overcomes the motor while running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveC Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 Fusion Signature.... Great sound quality, less expensive than JL Audio and the clarity is great. AMP them up and they're hard to beat, even by JL... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
