Newbie here with a question. I currently have a set of Infinity Reference 652i speakers on my Roll Cage, and was pushing them with a 60 X2 amp. I couldn't hear them when riding. I have a new 150 X2 amp coming, but was wandering if I should go ahead and build another pair for the cage? Any thoughts on this would be appreciated, but I would like to hear why you think what you do please.

More is always better...
Does your trolling motor rattle when you hit double-ups? Mr. Green

Roll Cage?

If you have the money I would add a set then you can run the amp at 2ohms and get double the power.

I have the money to add another set. I can still get the Infinity Reference 652i's, but should I mix them with something else, or keep them the same? I like the sound of the Infinity's Seem to have pretty good bass for a tower speaker, and still hits the highs crisp.

The Roll cage is a Joystick Roll Cage. I have it on my Procraft 20.6' Fish and Ski. Not a great wakeboard boat, but not that bad. I have seen worse.

The trolling motor does not rattle at all when I hit a double up, heck it doesn't even rattle when I go over the wake of a big boat.

Is that one of those new bassboat wakeboarding boat hybrids that I have been hearing about? Now you can yell at yourself when you make wakes.

Is there a trolling motor I can mount to my swim step? It might help me in reverse...

Also looking for a good fishin chair to mount up front...

Maybe buywake.com has something??? It's all good. I'd mount a roll bar to gramp's aluminum tub if I had to. Very Happy

Asking if you need more speakers is like asking should I screw that girl in your home ec. class. The answer is always yes. Who cares what it looks like, just do it.

vdrive, you rock. That is the most obnoxious looking setup I have seen yet. I've got 530's and 50's and I thought I was bad. My next move is to put a second tower on my boat, maybe mount it on top of my current tower and add more speaks.
