Hey Guys,
I have a 2006 H220 with the factory tower and bimini installed, I would love to install some speakers but as you know the top is too close to the cross bar. Does anyone have any suggestions on location that won't look ridiculous? Or is my better option to have the Bimini modified and have speakers that have to be removed to stow the top?

I have the same issue. I use my top frequently cuz we stay on the water pretty much all day. My top shows on the bow side of the reverse arch tower and narrowly deploys underneath it. Zero room for speaker cans unless they're mounted outside tower like Mickey Mouse EARS. I agree that is a stupid look. I'm looking for a solution too. Right now the solution is I sing to myself when underway cuz I can't hear squat.

Unless you tow somebody all day and they want to hear music while on the rope, no need to install speakers on the tower. They are only useful when at full blast to be heard while wakeboarding. I just have two Polk DB651 in my boat, and with the boat beached it's still plenty loud for us to play volleyball with some jams 50ft away.

Only thng I've found was to put them on outside of tower along edge of curve like mlckey mouse ears.

I did see in a Four Winns catalog that had doors to the rear lockers that had rear facing speakers mounted in them.

Actually most of our day is spent towing...and I can't hear radio when underway unless its turned on highyakkkka...too many days at the firing line....recon I will upgrade existing speakers and add a booster and another speaker set. I have four Sony spkrs and can't here them regardless if I am running in quiet mode.
