I don't want to talk any trash, but you guys would not believe how good that system sounds, and it did not cost much money- no amp or anything, just CD and speakers, with the antenna hidden in the console. I can not believe the sound quality. The speakers sit behind the cooler and you still hear them great. It's almost like the cooler amplifies the sound by reflecting it back at the driver. My GF says it is much better than our old boat's system, which was also aClarion marinehead unit and Bazookas, but 6", not 8". Makes me feel a little nervous that she seems to prefer 8 inches. Uh Oh. Enjoy the laughs fellas...

I have that same head unit with (4) 7" clarion marine 2-way speakers and it truly is an awesome little powerhouse. No amp on mine either. I have two speakers firing at the back of the console and two on the front of the console. It's AMAZING how awesome it sounds. That HU is definitely worth the money. I picked mine up on eBay used with the speakers for something like $250 last year and installed it myself. I couldn't be happier. I'll see if I can snap some pics and post them up this afternoon.

Sounds like you are rocking Andy- well done. Tunes on the water are great. Check out my tripletail report in inshore reports...
