Could you share the JL audio parts list you used for this project?
Thanks

We used 3 pairs of MX650CCXSGWH
1 pair of MX770CCXSGWH (transom)
2 M10IB5SGWH (Subs)
1 M800/8v2 amp
1 M600/1 amp

There’s some other connectors etc listed but that’s the main stuff.

One of my all time favorite movie clips akor. Thanks for posting it.

I also like that our Tesla has 11 for volume control and 11 for climate control fan speed in honor of Spinal Tap.

We were the star of the show at the Cobalt Regatta raft up. lol Mid-summer we realized our system just drew too much power for one battery to handle on its own. We added a third (2 in parallel) battery to shore us up, and it never let us down after that. We also added a charger to charge all 3 batteries and that was some great money spent as well.

Wow, three batteries? You guys are running M series JL amp's right? I have found that they are really easy to power, as they should be since they are Class D. We have had ours turned up in a cove for a good six hours without issues, and we are on a three year old Group 27 starting battery. Wonder what is different /w your setup?

Yeah we have the M series. I think having the battery charger has made a big difference. Before we had it we would listen to it for 4-5 hours, but then our trip back to the ramp was only maybe 20 minutes. I just don’t think we had enough time to recharge all the way because the next time our it would die. Haven’t had a single problem since we did the third battery and charger though.

With all that WOT running you guys do they should charge up quick. Weird. I'm sure you guys are listening louder than we do though, it takes some serious volume to be the star of the show when the founder of Cobalt is floating around the same cove in an A36.

Hey Dockrocker, we wrapped up an offseason stereo refresh in our 2007 222 last year. It was all pretty straight forward, but if you need any help let me know. Also our 222 came from the factory /w dual batteries, if you want me to snap some pics of how the factory did it we will be at the boat next weekend.
