    Installing speakers in the bow of my 96 SSN

    I am going to be replacing the speakers in my boat in the next couple of weeks and was hoping to add 2 speakers to the bow area as well. Has anyone done this on a Nautique that did not originally have them in there and if so, do you have pics?

    Thanks!!!

    I'm going to be doing it next week as soon as my upholsterer finalizes some details with my 95 SSN.

        I thought about doing it in my 99 Air when I reupholstered it but ultimately decided against it. It would have required 2 more amp channels (which I now have available, but did not at the time), and for those rare times I actually have people in the bow, they can hear my other speakers just fine. I did, however, add a 4th speaker behind the driver's seat, which for some inexplicable reason CC did not do on the sports and air direct drives.

            chexi- your boat did have a 4th speaker from the factory. They installed it on the driver's kick panel under the dash. If someone installed after market subs in that location that is probably the reason why your boat didn't have one.

              Any updates??? I was hoping to do the same on my 93 sport, but couldn't find a good speaker base to install.
