Hi
When I heard the stereo for the first time, I was sure something was wrong with it.... It sounded like the speakers were out of phase - no bass at all. Turns out it was the protective cups they mpunt behind the speaker. Without adequate "box volume" behind the speaker, it can't produce bass. I removed the cups and re-installed the stock speakers, and it was much better. The Clarion drivers aren't superb, but they will stand up well in the wet environment. This winter the whole stereo is going in the trash - I'll keep you posted as i build my new "stereo with boat attached".
