Just as long as your garage door doesn’t close and open on your car when you
key your mike .... remember the TV commercial for insurance with the unknown
wall switch?

Keep in mind the interference that the magnets in speakers may place on
your steering compass. I have noticed that my hand held VHF radio will cause
the compass Honey's to swing when within about a foot of the compass

I'm thinking of mounting the new speakers in the inspection port covers
in the transom. I hate cutting holes in my boat! I'll wait for the Defender
sale to shop for speakers, but I rarely sail with the stereo on, so I'm not
looking to spend big bucks.

8 or 4 ohms will make very little difference in sonic performance. The
amps' outputs are much lower impedance so the speakers are in a bridging
configuration.

One thing to remember is that most boat audio systems are 4 ohms and
it is better to use speakers with same impedance ( 8 ohm will take too much
juice ).
Sometimes you only discover it after everything is installed :-)

Subject: Stus-List Stereo finally works
After three years my stereo is fully functional. I replaced the old
stereo with a Sony unit after I bought the boat. One of the 2 interior
speakers worked and the 2 cheapo West cockpit speakers worked.
After spending way too much time, I finally figured out that the
speaker wire was to corroded to carry a signal. Initially, I replaced most of
the wire with household wire. DON"T USE HOUSEHOLD SPEAKER WIRE. That lasted
about a season. I finally replaced all of the wire with marine grade wire.
Then I discovered that the rubber around the speaker cones disintegrated. I
bought 5 1/4 inch car speakers that fit into the enclosures for the cabin
speakers, and then found out the cockpit speakers did't work. Turns out
someone twisted and taped the connections. New crimp connectors fixed them.
Finally, 4 working speakers!
Now, need to upgrade the cockpit speakers.
