[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 434117, member: 18789"] Yeah, I agree. I don’t bother on the speakers because they are basically good as is in my experience. For the radio and amp for sure a good idea. On mine I’m thinking the amps will be stuck under a Tuffy trunk enclosure, so probably protected from water. My radio is a marine Sony unit and it’s in the Tuffy console anyways so it will be isolated from water as soon as I flip the lid. My problem with marine grade amps is it severely limit Choice. I want to use some super small class D amps that put out good power for their size. I’d love a 5 channel but they’re all too big. Either way if I choose marine then I definitely can’t ever find anything small in any channel. There is one amp by clarion that is waterproof, 5 channel, and tiny, but it doesn’t have remote turn on, it turns on by the RCA signal which I’m not a real fan of. I’d rather the dedicated wire. So my plan is two tiny kickers (4ch + 1ch), mounted on top of my sub under the trunk, which keeps them out of rain/sun. [/QUOTE]
