Low value but high reward project *LINK* *PIC*

All,
I was a little discouraged with all the real work that remains on my project and decided to do a "fun" project.

After my girlfriends daughter heard the new PolyPlanar stereo on my boat and commented that there was no bass, I purchased a Marine 8" amplified Bazooka bass tube. I epoxied in a shelf in the STB gunnal and strapped it in with it's own power switch so I can turn it off when the engines are not running. WOW, what a difference. When turned up, it can make my DC panel AMP meter dance like a sound level meter. Normal volumes make little difference. Since I am spending so much time in the boat working, I am really enjoying the quality of sound it produces.

Hey, if it makes the girls happy when the fish are not biting then it was well worth it.

Where can I get a sound CD of 6BTA's or Yanmars running at cruise?
