So the other day my stereo randomly went to max volume and it appears that my existing pair of Icon 8's are toast. I am not a stereo expert by any means so I am not sure if these can be repaired or not, but I will try that before replacing them; however, if they do need to be replaced I am wondering if I should use this opportunity to upgrade to Rev 8's. I primarily use these for surfing and in boat music. I wakeboard a good amount, but I am concerned w/ being obnoxious on the water and blasting the shoreline as I live on a smaller lake. There are definitely times though that I would enjoy hearing them wakeboarding. I don't want to change my amp so the Rev 10's are out. My primary questions are as follows:
1) Will the Rev 8's be so loud that the shoreline will be subjected to our horrible taste in music?
2) Will the Rev 8's be harsh for the boat riders (they will be on the lower side mounts of a 2012 210)
3) Will the Rev 8's work well for surfing?
4) I am powering the Icon's with 200 W each - will this be enough for the Rev 8's? I don't want to change the amp
I am relatively happy w/the Icon 8's. They sound great in the boat, but I do have to crank them even for surfing.
