Focal 165v
Diamond Audio D661
Alpine Spx-177r
What do you guys think.... :rollside:
Tough choice, really... go with what sounds best to you... I ordered a pair of the Alpines for a customer who has since never called back. It was an insurance dealio, so I never took a deposit for them. The speakers are just sitting in my old inventory. If you like them, you'd be doing the guy that is still there a favor by buying them.... He'll give you a good price to get rid of product they don't stock.. I can pm his number if you want..

Im a HUGE fan of the Fo-Cal's! Had them in my last boat, have two sets of the 165 K2 three way systems in the new boat, and have the K2 two way systems in the Rhino. It would be tought to find a cleaner sounding system IMO. Dont forget about the quaility of your amps as well, that will make a difference. If you ever want to check out either of my systems, let me know. Good Luck either way you go.....Tobtek

Man I love the way that looks.
All three are good quality speakers, sounds like Roz has a good price on the Alpines. I've used the mid level Focal's and the Mid level Diamond Audio's and had real good success, haven't heard the Type R mids but I love the Type R subs.
How about MTX, Audiobahn, or Polk 6.5's?
Audiobahn makes a really nice marine set of 6.5's and 6X9's but I have never actually heard them. Found out about those on another forum.
The Polks I hear are real nice, too.
Thanks.
I saw it is person last month and it looks sweet.
Is there any issue with speakers that dont have Alum dome....I was told that Silk dome absorb water??? Some manufacture dont say what theres is...for example Alpine X series dont!

Are we talking a drop of water every now and then or are we talking submerging your speakers? Just make an effort to keep them dry and you'll be ok. Don't bring squirt guns (super soakers, whatever) to the lake and don't park next to other people that are shooting them. Squirt guns aren't cool...............Nothing worse than cruising through the channel and having some asshole squirt your interior as you go by.
