Lake City Powersports Client Gets Yamaha YXZ Stereo System

July 6, 2017 By JOey Knapp Leave a Comment

Yamaha YXZ StereoA powersports client from Lake City recently came to Pinnacle Autosound looking for a Yamaha YXZ Stereo system.  We have worked on a number of side-by-sides so we had a great idea of what would get his rocking.

Rockford Fosgate Radio Provides Lots of Choices

A plastic mounting plate was custom-fabricated to mount the Rockford Fosgate radio.

The start of the system was the Rockford Fosgate PMX2 Radio.  This radio is purpose-built for the powersports market.  It is designed to hold up to the most abusive conditions.  As you can tell from the pictures, this side-by-side is no trailer queen, so we knew this was the perfect radio.  The client now has almost unlimited audio sources when paired via Bluetooth to his smartphone.

Rugged, Efficient Power by JL Audio

The JL Audio amplifier’s small size let it easily fit in the glovebox.

Adding audio power to powersports vehicles can sometimes be a challenge.  There are a number of obstacles that aren’t found in regular cars or trucks.  The first hurdle is size.  There is very little space available in the normal side-by-side.  Another concern is the limited charging amperage of the side-by-side charging system.  Taking these things into account, we chose the JL Audio MX280/4 amplifier.  As you can see, it was small enough to fit in the glove box.  The glove box doesn’t provide a waterproof seal, but that was no concern for us, as the JL Audio amplifier is built to withstand the elements.

Yamaha YXZ Stereo Speakers

With the Wet Sounds bar in the front and the tube sub in the back, this system sounded awesome.

The final step for the Yamaha YXZ stereo system was to add some great sounding speakers.  We started by adding a Wet Sounds Core 10 speaker bar.  This is a very low-profile housing that holds a number of smaller speakers.  We used two of the JL Audio amplifier channels to power the speaker bar.  To fill in the bass that the system needed we used a Bazooka 10″ subwoofer.  The tube system was designed for marine audio use, so we knew it would hold up well under the extremes this Yamaha YXZ would see.

Pontoon Boat Audio System for Lake City Client

A local client from Lake City recently contacted us about upgrading the failing marine audio system in his pontoon boat.  We spoke with him about his goals for the upgrade and ended up booking him an appointment.

Rockford Fosgate Subwoofer Upgrade

The biggest problem with the client’s boat was the old subwoofer had stopped working.  We replaced the 10″ marine subwoofer and added an additional 10″ subwoofer.  The subwoofers were mounted on each side of the boat in storage cabinets.  We choose the Rockford Fosgate Prime 10″ marine subwoofers for this application.  To power the subwoofers we used 2 Rockford Fosgate 300 watt amplifiers.  These amplifiers are very efficient in both power consumption and size.  Their efficiency will allow the client to play the system for a long time when he is out on the water.

Wetsounds Speaker Upgrade

While we were working on the boat the client also wanted us to improve the sound of the speakers.  We were able to put together a package consisting of two pair of Wet Sounds coaxial speakers and a Wet Sounds 4-channel amplifier.  The Wet Sounds equipment is designed to be in the marine environment so we know the client will enjoy the speakers for a long time.

Pontoon Boat Audio Delivery

Once all the gear was installed we took the time to carefully adjust the amplifiers and radio setting to maximize the performance of the new system.  The sound was very impressive.  When the client picked the boat up he loved the improved clarity and output of the system.  More bass was an added bonus!

If you are interested in upgrading the audio system in your boat, stop by and see us, or contact us HERE for an appointment or questions.
