I'd go with the pair of 80's to complement the 485's.

If the Pro80's will fit then add them.

Robert,

Not many boats can fit 3 485's. I think your SAN just might be able to! That would be awesome since it would be pretty rare.

There is a sanger on our site with 4 485's. 3 facing back and one forward. But most of the guys do the 485 and 60's or 485 and 80's etc..

I had the 485 pair with 80 pair on our old demo boat and the 485 pair and 60 pair on our Tige.

I would say if you can swing it. Try the 3 485's. If it doesn't fit, then do the 80's with it.

I know a pair of 485s and a pair of pro 80s will fit but dont know about the 3 485s but if i can get the 3 485s would that be better

dAng! Anthony... Is that 6 10's or 8's I see poking out?

They are 8's, tens would not fit. There is a 15" under the steering wheel.

I started with one 485 because I thought I didn't want the whole lake to hear my music. I had to crank it to hear it behind the boat and outside the wake I couldn't hear anything. I added two pro80s on the side and love it. I dont have to drive them as hard and now I can hear everywhere no problem. Also, the threesome look way better on the tower. It looked silly with just the one 485 in the middle as crazy as that sounds. Its nice to have a full tower.
