I got a new stereo and to instal in my Starcraft Starchief. I cannot figure out where to mount the speakers. I have not bought the speakers yet because I am am not sure what kind to get since I do not know where to mount them.
I really hate to cut holes in the boat interior unless it is an ideal location.
Any ideas for locations? Anybody got pics of where yours are mounted?

Re: Speaker locations on a Starchief?

I've been thinking about this myself for my SS. I'm worried if I mount them on the aluminum on the bow structure they will cause too much vibration.

I'm actually leaning towards putting them under the consoles above your feet since they could be attached to plywood covered in vinyl rather than aluminum and they would be proected from rain.

If you put yours inside the cuddy would that do the same?

I am leaning more towards mounting them outside in the open area since that is where the most noise is. I figured if they was to be in an area exposed to the elements, I would use outdoor speakers then. I am considering going with a 6x9 speaker in a self contained speaker box then deciding where to mount that box. That should be the best route as far as making holes in the boat.
