I just installed these with a Jensen receiver/amp and am very happy with the sound. They produce enough sound out of the center console that you can hear them with both motors running and clearly. They had the installation diagram and cutout to use. I have one pointing fore and the other aft out of the console. I was concerned with this mounting over the gunnel mount but this works out great. I will be interested to see how they hold up to weather but seem to be very well built and water proof. I would recommend these speakers.

These Pioneer TS-MR2040 Marine speakers replaced my 8 year old Pioneer TS-MR165 marine speakers in an under-eave installation for listening to music on our outdoor patio. The sound is decent, much better than the smaller speakers they replaced – although somewhat surprising to me, the older speakers were in poor condition, despite not being exposed to any direct or harsh weather in the eave installation. I hope these replacement speakers last longer than the ones they replaced. There does appear to be some slight differences in the basic design between the two speakers, such as a rubber sealing gasket on the new speakers. We’ll have to wait and see how these hold up after a few years.
