SUPER
AIR NAUTIQUE
BOASTS AUDIO BY WETSOUNDS, JL AUDIO AND BOSTON ACOUSTICS PLUS
FULL LIGHTING.
THIS 220 IS SUPER LIT UP AND SUPER LOUD!
The tower received a pair of
WetSounds 485s. We added blue light rings and gloss black
powdercoated billet aluminum grills.
Factory
Clarion source unit in the glove compartment.
Under
the driver’s dash and just below the factory remote control
we installed a WetSounds equalizer.
Behind the observer's seat
a concealed amp rack contains three Boston Acoustics two-channel
amplifiers. A GT-28 drives the tower speakers, a GT-24
powers the subwoofers and a GT-22 runs three pair of coaming
speakers. All amplifiers are fan cooled.
Triple
Optima batteries provide extra reserves.
A JL Audio 12-inch W7 woofer in a ported enclosure.
Four polymer mounting pads elevate
the enclosure up off the boat’s deck.
Dual
KingStarboard vents allow the subwoofers radiation to freely
flow from within the port console. The factory hatch in the
pass-thru can be re-instated.
Four WetSounds 6 ½-inch
speakers in the cockpit plus two more in the bow.
Lit
up engine compartment vents.

During the off-season we've
made a few improvements to Robert's 220. We added a pair
of WetSounds Pro80s to join the 485s. With that came two
more 8-inch light rings and two more billet grills. We
lit up the Pro485 horns and the port side locker is illuminated
in blue.
Staying with the same amplifier series, the power was
totally reconfigured with six amplifiers, which may
seem excessive. But, the advantage in this particular
system is that each speaker is getting optimum power.
A Boston Acoustics GT-28 is bridged mono to the JL 12W7.
A B.A. GT-24 (which is one-ohm stereo stable) drives
the six WetSounds XS-650 in-boat speakers.
Two GT-22s are bridged mono with each dedicated to
a Pro485. Two GT-20s are bridged with each driving a
single Pro80. Three amplifiers are mounted on a second
amp panel which is concealed behind the sub enclosure.The
JL 12W7 subwoofer is absolutely destructive. The steel
security gate in our shop shook violently. Neighbors
from businesses and residences several hundred yards
away were drawn outside by the tower speakers.
Underwater
lights were added to the transom. 24 ultra bright blue LEDs
lit up the entire shop.
