Default Polk DB6501

Anyone try these speakers?

I have a set sitting in the garage and thinking about installing them. They are marine grade and have the separate tweeters which I guess could be put into the gauge holes. They have pretty big cross overs which would have to be stuffed into someone place?

Thoughts?

Many of us have the coaxial mounted tweeter Polks like you have. If pushed with the 300x2 RF amp they will blow you away.

With separate tweeters you can install them in the bottom two gauge holes. Remove air temp and move oil pressure up to voltage, removing voltage as well.

Would like to see them too. Plan on putting DB651's in the fairing and Tour Pak, with the DB6501's in the lower fairings, mounting the tweets next to the speedometer and tach.
