    Ok, what you got from me, was our custom cube sac. It hold just shy of 600 lbs. So upgrading to a sac like the W712 Enzo would double your current ballast. That would really improve the wave, yet all the ballast is stowed away.

      I only drive on the bolster and we run a pair of Rev10s. Crazy but the size was actually between the Pro60s and MB8s they replaced.

      Do Rev10s. You will never ever regret them!!

        Should a ws-420 also be considered while I'm at it?
        I'm still leaning towards the icon8s for close-up sound. As sweet as I'm sure the Rev10s are, it's another $455 that could be spent elsewhere.
        Thinking of anything & everything now while I'm at it.

          Yes, a 420 would be worth it.

            I've hit a road block. Kinda hard to use a gift certificate when your calls & emails stop getting returned from the other end. Looks like this is going to be a Spring project.

              2 sets of Icon 8s and a 420. Then have your wife get you two JL 12" W6s for Christmas (or get them for her!)

                2 pairs crossed my mind earlier today actually.

                  Amp and tune them correctly and the sound is AWESOME!

                    I agree with Eric, the Icon 8's amped and tuned properly they are great.

                      Definitely no tanks under the floor. There was a Makita flashlight down there when we bought it though
                      I mis-spoke on not having any ballast under the floor. It's there, just hidden very well, to the point that I missed them last time I had the floor lifted. Why do they bury it to the point that you couldn't get to it if you wanted to!? At least the pumps are accessible. Johnson 4890 1000GPH.

                      Still no word on pricing with the other items though [emoji20]

                        I cut LED strips yesterday - 47 total for right now. Soldering might take a few minutes.

                          It's raining out right now so I can't check, but does anyone know what fittings I'll need changing from the factory piggyback setup to the Enzo? For now I'm going to stay with the same pumps. I'm sure I'll need to do the vent crossovers at this time though.

                          Order as follows:
                          WS420BT, Icon8's, Syn2, & Enzo sac. $420 to spare. Need wiring, sac fittings, hose, anything else? Big spinning "flag pole" to take place of the little ski pylon on the back seat!?

                            Slowly making some progress. Parts are taking longer than expected to get so I figured I'd start soldering up the LEDs today since it's nice out.

                              As cool as that is, I see it getting old fast.

                                Haha I agree. But I've got about $50 in it, & when your kids are 8 & 5 cheap sources of annoying repetitive entertainment are priceless.
