Why not look into the Bullet HP HLCD speakers. You can get a pair for $650-$750. If you go with $300 coax speakers on the tower sooner than later you'll wish you went HLCD. Lots of people doing the Kicker tower speakers and say they are decent for non-HLCD. If you're wanting to hear the music while wakeboarding with coax speakers you're gonna kill everyone inside the boat with distorted music trying to turn it up to hear it at 80ft back

You can do the Kicker KMT6 tower speakers for the price you are looking for. Hi Fi Sound Connection, on ebay, carries those for a decent price. They'll sound good hooked up with the Kicker ZX450.2 amp, from what I've heard. That's what I'm about to install in my boat. I'm sure the HLCD's are way better, but if that's the budget you're working with, I've heard the Kicker set up is one of the better ones to go with.

The Kicker KMT6 are deff a good setup for the $$$ . Seen em as low as 250 a set and i have bout 80w to each one of mine and i always get compliments on how good they sound and how far the sound carries . You will wanna run em crossed over highpass , wont do very good full range .

Kicker blemished product gives you an opportunity to buy amazing Kicker product at the lowest prices possible. However, every item has limited quantities so hurry these offers wont last long. Blemished Kicker product includes product that was sent to a dealer but was refused due to the retail box being bent or crushed.

The product is then sent back to Kicker, it is then tested, re-boxed, and then Kicker authorizes us to re-sell it with a 90-day manufacturer's warranty. Every product is guaranteed to work, and sound exactly like brand new items that are double the price.

Yea I read that, but what a company posts on the internet and what actually happens can be two different things. I was more hoping for someone that has ordered a blem product to confirm that.

I ordered my Kicker amp from HiFi and it was a Factory Refurb. Looks brand new. I've heard nothing but good things about HiFi and Kicker's refurb's and blems.

Their functionality will be the same as new. Even if there's a nick or scratch on the enclosure, so what? You're paying $300.
