to the OP, I don't normally comment on WS stuff but being a Zapco dealer I feel confident in posting on this thread. The Reference 750.2 is arguably the best of the reference line from Zapco. However, best is defined by how clean they are, not how much power they have. In reality, the 750.2 will provide about 700RMS watts at 4 ohms Bridged. Based on my experience, this is beyond the upper limit of the 485 if running esentially wide open or minimal head room....Ok for a crossover point about 500 Hz i.e minimal mid bass. If this is your idea of loud then Nirvana for you. Mike on the other hand is running the Arc 300.2's to each, still plenty of headroom at virtually the same power output but not the clean output of the 750.2......but in a boat can many people really telll the dif? Lets see, $300 per 300.2, $700 per 750.2? There's some dif Personally, I run a Zapco 1100.1 to each of my Prodigy tower speaekrs (825 each), kinda pricey, but very clean. Gotta decide what is important to you. I like loud, full range (80Hz - 20KHz), AND clean.
