    Here is the one i just bought but feel it is cheap with little to no EQ settings and the rca volts are only 2.5? http://www.kenwood.com/usa/car/marine/kmr-d558bt/index.html This looks sweet...??? http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/cde-hd149bt/
  2. Hey guys I am looking to upgrade my head unit in my boat. I am redoing the hole thing. I have two 15 SSA in ported boxes. (Still waiting on this stuff) For highs I have eight Hertz 6.5" at 4 ohms with two Hertz amps running them in stereo. I dont have room for and head other than a 1-Din. I have a marine Kenwood now in boat with two wired remotes. Bluetooth is a must! My Kenwood now is not and running a cable to phone sucks. I play 90% of my music from phone. I am willing to ditch the wired remotes for a better head. I did order Kenwoods new marine unit it is Bluetooth but feel there is better.... I want good eq controls,is higher rca volts better? The new Kenwood was like $130.00 thats just to cheap.... Looking to spend $300-500.00 And it does not need to be marine it is in a dry place. So Alpine best?? Or?? Ty guys for all the help!!!!!

  12. Getting there!! :-)
  13. What is the best way to run speaker wire and the rcas? For speakers I have eight speakers and two amps.On my deck of course I just have two rca out puts left and right front and rear. So do I run the front to the one amp and just buy rca splitters and the rear to the other amp with splitters too? I am running amps full stereo at 4 ohms. This make sense? Ty happy Easter!!!
  14. Yea on the money deal I had a hard time spending 4gs on my mid and highs hope it was worth it. Lol
  15. Great great info! Hope to have the full install done today!! :-) :-) On mids and highs.... Still waiting on my two 15" SSAs Xcons :-)
  16. Ty for your help!! Time to pull out the hole saw :-) :-)
  17. Ty man!!! I went with 4 sets of Hertz separates high energy and two of there new four channel amps. Thanks for your help man! Hope they are good..... That video is on the rock river in IL. Yes must watch for logs and stuff. As far as wake it puts off zero at speed there is no boat in the water man. And very little when crushing. Ty guy's
  18. THX thanks alot for the help and compliments!! :-) :-) :-) What do u like for a amp? Focal amp too? Why are separates so much better? Crossovers and/or the tweeters not over top of the mid? Ty!!! Ps u around IL lets go for a blast!! :-) 27' Daytona Ateco 1100hp Pass: https://youtu.be/Ye1JPwe22r4
  19. Found a little video of the stuff I installed. The jls 12 w3 and sub amp are gone now. Next I want the mids and highs upgraded. Hope this video helps. Thanks guys Boat radio:
  20. Thank you so much guys! Anyone on mids and highs? Need to run a very strong four channel amp pushing eight 6.5" Would like to not use separates because of cutting more holes and I have two 6.5 in there own little pods no room to mount tweeters. But if they are way better I will figure a way to use them. So the speakers should be four ohms and I will double up on each channel for a two ohm load. I have run in the past all same store speakers........ Polk.....soundstream.....wet sounds...Kenwood. .. all sound real close. Must be a speaker and amp that is next level. Ty
  21. Thanks there is a few pics of boat. I want to up grade my mids and highs next. I have eight 6.5 Polks they are not separates. They are on a ok amp seeing 80 watts rms. What is a super loud clear 6.5 speaker and what is a super clean amp to push them with? Ty so much
