OK... I was expecting Frank C. to take the bait but he didn't... oh well.
Thanks... I was about ready to give this boat away last week when I had to put a new alternator on it.
Here are a few "during construction" shots so you can see this was not for the faint of heart... also.. the BIG Sony made-from-plutonium TV that was removed got rid of that starboard list of mine.
and
The quality of some of the cable connectors was terrible.. My KVH had a loose power connection which explained some of the problems I've had for FIVE years.
Bose is better at marketing than making speakers. A lot of people would say they sound terrible. I don't think so. I think the Bose systems sound alright (6.5-7/10), but I think you can get the same sound for a LOT less money. On a boat though, the Bose is a nice space saver. I certainly understand Gary's choices in the salon as well as the staterooms. The systems sound good and they are small. The worst "con" is the price..... and that can be overcome.
I had BOSE in my Mercedes 320 and the speakers blew very early. They never sounded that great IMHO. Also had BOSE in an Infinity and they never sounded great IMHO. Not sure what's in my Volvo S60 but they sound great and the bass/sub is very nice.
I have compared the BOSE Marine 6.5s to others and IMHO the BOSE are not that good..even WMs brand sounded better to me.
I would speculate that inside of a reasonably sized and conditioned cabin, vibration and shock are more of an issue than corrosion.
