Tower Speaker Recommendations

I'm going to be purchasing a set of tower speakers within the next month so they are ready by the end of may and i was wondering if anyone had any recommendations.

I have a 2002 Mastercraft X-10 with the standard clairon setup with one amp. I'm thinking that i'm gonna need another amp. and i was looking at the fusion tower speakers (are they any good?) what is a good amp?

I would also like to have a separate volume control for the tower speakers, what do i need to wire that up?

thanks a lot for the help

thanks for the reply. Do you have a separate volume control for the speakers? Did your dealership install them?

Ben, no separate Volume control. Set Fader control but may go with one this summer. Will-see. I installed them myself (really easy)

I just installed the Fusion T series last week. The sound is very clear. I'm using a XTA720.4 - Soundstream Xstream 4 Ch. 720 Watt Amplifier. (online $199.00 + s/h) Ch 1 and 2 run the Fusion Speakers and Ch 3 and 4 run a Rockford Fosgate Punch 8" sub in a sealed box. I took the boat out Sunday for a test run. Before I couldn't hear the radio with the boat running or while ridding. I have a Yamaha AR210 Jetboat its powered by two 135hp two stroke waverunner engines. I can hear my music now and its clear. I'm very happy with the speakers.

From seeing a few boats at the LA boat show, Fusion speakers were by far the best looking. Correct Craft had a bunch on their boats.. One of the employees said they are the best sounding speakers he's heard.
When I rob a bank and buy a boat, I'll get me some of them.

The Fusions are like $600/pair right at Wakeside ( or were really recently ), that is a killer deal worth checking out.
