kb600's w 4 chan 800 watt amp

waketech 03-22-2005, 5:43 PM

Will I be able to hear this setup at 70-80' behind my direct drive. Here are my concerns

1. I wanna hear the music
2. I want the quality of the music somewhat good
3. I want it too look good on the tower

Will the above setup meet my criteria. I have not personally heard these speakers so I am looking for some help.

Thanks

I have a pair of those on my tower. They aren't the best looking speakers and aren't the loudest but they are pretty cheap and they do the job. I'm using a kicker 800.4 (half of it anyway) to power these speakers on the tower. I have the gain around 75% and you can hear them behind the boat at 80' but it isn't want the fusion or comprable speakers sound like. If you have 2 pair you might have better luck than I.

RK,

I think there are only two systems available right now that meet your criteria, NVS and Skylon V. Save your lunch money...

I think bill @ monster tower ran that setup for a while? Don't know what amp, but he had 2 pair of the kb600. My guess is you'll be able to hear the mucis, but proabbly not understand much of it. You'll her all the highs and almost no mids, on top of that you'll blast everyone in the boat with ear piercing highs.

Mike is right, if want want to meet the above mentioned criteria, start savin and get the NVS or Skylon systems

The only complaint I'llever have w/ the NVS is if someone is sitting on the back is to turn it down a tad, never turn the treble down.
