I know people asked similar question before. But do you guys think its worth change the original speakers in my boat? They are still working but in my opinion they sound a bit harsh and has always sounded harsh. I was thinking to swap them for JBL marine club speakers if decided to change.
Thank you all.

Re: Sony MP-62
It depends a lot on what speaker you're coming from, and what you choose as a replacement. I've often found JBL's voicing can be harsh and elevated in the upper midrange, but I think it's a good sign that they have silk dome tweeters instead of metal. I've never heard the JBL marine speakers, but JL Audio are likely similar and a fine choice too. I listened to what was available when I upgraded mine and went with Roswell, but they're power-hungry enough that they may not be a great choice if you don't have a dedicated external amp.

Re: Sony MP-62
Thank you for your reply. Thats the tricky part I can not listen to different speakers anywhere. Well Im located in Sweden and JL is very expensive here. What I like about the JBL is that as you mentioned have a silk dome instead of the aluminum? dome the sony has. Not a guarantee but fore stereo speakers im usually like silk domes.
But its not that fun to spend 600USD and figure out its was pointless.
