 Topic: Good place for speakers?Posted: June-01-2006 at 11:53am |

I have just bought a stereo,amp,and four 6.5inch round speakers for my boat and I am wondering if anyone has any pictures or great ideas on where to put them? I thought about making mounting boxes for all of them and angling them toward the floor under the side rails. I don't have enough space in the rail for them I don't think. Can anybody help? Thanks Ryan

Ryan,
What year is your boat? I built enclosures that goes under the rail for the aft speakers. I put the front speakers in the same location CC did in my manual. See my diary. |

What year is the boat?
I installed 2- 6 1/2 and 2- 6x9's in my old boat. I used 3/4" high density particle board and cut it out 1 1/2" larger than the outer circumference of the speaker and then cut a hole in the middle of that for the speaker to sit. Then took a router and smoothed the edge down and covered it with the same carpet that i used on the floor. Here are some pics.
