Tower Speakers - w/White Grills - Mastercraft -

Hey All,
We were riding yesterday and saw a couple of Mastercrafts with tower speakers with white grills, just wondering if this was a manufacturer option? I could clearly hear the music from these speakers over 200ft away! They were very, very clear. I am looking for a set of tower speakers for my boat but still haven't decided which route to go with. I know about the Pro-80's but wanted something a little more economical. Just curious what was under those white grills, both boats were clear as could be!

Thanks!

If it was an 06 or older they were probably Clarion Speakers on the tower, thats what they were using from the factory and they have white grills. For 07 I think there going with JL audio.

Thanks Steve!
It doesn't seem possible that they were those, they sounded silly good...maybe they swapped speakers out and used the same grills. I tried to get them to stop but they just kept on going.

How's the knee? Hope all is good!

Bo,
How much do you want to spend on speakers? I noticed you said somthing a little more economical. The Pro80s are $849 a pair, I was looking in my Wakeside catalog and heres some prices of other speakers.

XTP 6.5 Double Tower speakers $910
XTP Project 912 Horn Driven Tower Speakers $1995
XTP 6.5 Tower Speakers $770
Skylon Rubicon 150 Tower Speakers $759

These all come as a pair. The Pro80s will blow all these speakers out of the water and then some. Just think.....a white Pair of Pro80s hanging off that Flight Control Tower for $849

. You can always come over and check mine out if you want.

perhaps the grills were painted to match...I have done this several times,
