Default Right or Wrong I pulled the trigger on a BT2250

Going to throw a little more power at the AW's and see if I can wake em up a bit. Hope this gets me to where I want to be... for like a week.

Just switched to aquatics AV after 3 kenwood 998 dying, AW 6.5"s, VO-B3 horns in the gauge holes, NVX mini running the horns. BT2180 coming out that use to power the AW's.

Power won't be an issue for sure. I'm not familiar with the AV, can you control the crossover from the radio? If so should be in great shape.

Unfortunately the AV are glorified stock units. Basic controls only. Bass , mid and treble I believe are about it
