I like those JL audio tower speakers, Now i've only heard some of those once on an 08 xstar last year. They seemed damn loud when I heard them. I've got wetsounds on my boat and I'm pleased with them, but I can't make a call as to whether they're louder/clearer than the JL's I heard on that x-star. Anyone done a side by side comparison, JL vs Wetsounds? Which was louder/clearer? Just wondering. To note, the xstar is prob louder since it had like 16 speakers total i think, all JL and I have only 10 speakers total, so xstar would definitely win on volume, but how bout clarity? anyone? honest info only, not looking to start another speaker war thread
