Perhaps Robert's having trouble posting pics. But you can see his Nautique 220 at http://www.earmarkcaraudio.com/install_superAirNautique.asp.

The new additions are at the bottom of the page.

Thats Dope!! How did it sound when you had the W7 being pushed off the 24? Underpowered?

The w7 still hit good with the 24 but it needed more power for my taste I haven't heard the new system yet but from the people that has said it is crazy loud

Wow nice. 3 optimas gonna be enough for 6 amps? That w7 gonna keep up with all those mids and highs? Got room for another w7?

(aarond0083) · (aarond0083) **Join Date: Apr 2007** 04-03-2009, 6:24 AM

Very nice install. I bet it sounds great.

(wake1823) · (wake1823) **Join Date: Dec 2005** 04-03-2009, 6:58 AM

awesome install, but I agree with 882001, not enough batt's or enough subs to keep up.

(biggris79) · (biggris79) **Join Date: Jan 2008** 04-03-2009, 9:29 AM

I have 5 optimas with a 100 amp alt. and cann't turn up the w7 all the way it would tear the boat about with the amp im using on it and no need for another w7

We failed to mention that we added two more batteries for a total of five. There are three banks, one starting battery in reserve plus two cascading banks of two batteries each. This provides for a little longer play time at rest and control for protecting the alternator. As it stands, the system is dependent on an AC charger for full restoration.

From an in-boat perspective, enough bass is not a concern with the bridged GT-28, bass-reflex enclosure and dual vents. In fact, the heavy duty security gates in our shop looked like tuning forks!

really nice work david and robert. that's pretty incredible.

(bruce) · (bruce) **Join Date: Feb 2002** 04-03-2009, 12:19 PM

What was your budget? I'd guess $6,000.

(colombiansurfer)

Nice install!

(muckinaround) · (muckinaround) **Join Date: Dec 2008** 04-03-2009, 1:37 PM

$6,000 wouldn't cover that install.

Awesome set up guys. Robert, boat looks great!

(smith86) · (smith86) **Join Date: Mar 2009** 04-03-2009, 2:34 PM

hey that is a killer set up.

(882001) · (882001) **Join Date: Nov 2003** 04-04-2009, 6:47 AM

3k in tower speakers alone. And an 800$ sub. 6k not even close

(hatepain) · (hatepain) **Join Date: Aug 2006** 04-04-2009, 11:02 AM

I doubt he paid full retail for everything but yeah he's deep in that system.

(radikal) · (radikal) **Join Date: Feb 2004** 04-04-2009, 1:17 PM

an install like that if you drop in and take it complete with all the stock can cost easily 8k.

robert can you tell us if you dont mind i need ot know how much i need to save and dont touch in my account :-)

(bcard) · (bcard) **Join Date: Apr 2007** 04-04-2009, 3:09 PM

My guess would be 10k plus.

(antbug) · (antbug) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 04-04-2009, 3:40 PM

Will he have a problem with the coast guard due to the blue lights on the tower or that just a Cali rule that you can't have them?

Either way, very nice boat.

(biggris79) · (biggris79) **Join Date: Jan 2008** 04-04-2009, 10:37 PM

It was over 20,000 for everything.i didnt have any problems last year but i stay on lakes dont ever see cg

(radikal) · (radikal) **Join Date: Feb 2004** 04-05-2009, 9:33 AM

Waste of money.

Looks sick. I hate to have to lower/raise that tower. I have a pair of 485's and about kill myself at the end of a long day of riding.

(malibuboats4) · (malibuboats4) **Join Date: Sep 2008** 04-05-2009, 4:33 PM

you should have just bought another boat :-)

(tims72) · (tims72) **Join Date: Apr 2008** 04-05-2009, 7:31 PM

$20,000 for the lights and stereo. i dont know david earmarks prices but that seems a little high. i spent alot less than that and have 2-485, 4-pro 60, 2-mb 8, 8-xs 650, 2-12" woofers, ws 420, five batteries honda 2000 gen and a conveter. i was know where close to 20,000. but i quess as long as you can afford it and your happy who cares.

(wake1823) · (wake1823) **Join Date: Dec 2005** 04-06-2009, 10:12 AM

^^ Yes, earmark is very proud of their work. Does a great job, but very pricey.

I've tried to order some somewhat custom pieces from them...WAY overpriced. Had the same piece custom machined at less than 20% of what they wanted, out of better metal.

(bjeremi) · (bjeremi) **Join Date: Mar 2006** 04-06-2009, 10:27 AM

hyperlite. Let's see that tower setup.

(muckinaround) · (muckinaround) **Join Date: Dec 2008** 04-06-2009, 10:34 AM

Yea but Hyper you forget to take into account the amount of hours to install a system like that. It doesn't just happen in 8 hours. Labor isn't cheap. If it is cheap, then its probably not gonna be right the first time. Do you work for free? B/c I know they don't. I did the work on my system myself. I've got probably 20-30 hours in it, just with this years round of mods and I'm still not done, lots of clean up left.

OMG that is crazy hyperlite! Have you posted pics of that before. Looks a little crowded but still badass!

(wake1823) · (wake1823) **Join Date: Dec 2005** 04-06-2009, 11:44 AM

Jarrod, I agree. These guys are professionals, you pay for there time b/c they work much more effeciently than you or I. Aside from the sheer volume of equipment and wiring, it's not alot of custom fab work that takes a whole ton of time.

(882001) · (882001) **Join Date: Nov 2003** 04-06-2009, 11:51 AM

if you got it spend it. there are tons of things in this world that i find a waste of money. one example, some people like rolexes others like me think they are gay as hell and a total waste of money. i would rather have the stereo.
