Malibu Encased Wet Sound Rev8's or Wet Sound Rev 8 or 10's

I have a 2012 21 V-Ride and want to add tower speakers. My wife likes the look of the Malibu encased tower speakers, but you pay for it. I want to add 2 Wet Sounds Rev 10 speakers or Rev 8 speakers, any thoughts on the Malibu encased Wet Sound speakers versus buying Wet Sounds Rev 10 speakers direct? Also, I have a Rockford Fosgate Punch P400-2 amp that is going to the tower speaker wires, will I need a better amp to power the Rev 8 or Rev 10 speakers?

#1: That amp has no business running even a single pair of REV8's. It is a 100x2 watt RMS amp...that is way too low of power. You could power a single tower speaker with it if bridged to 4ohm, but that would be pretty silly.

#2: They don't sell a bare REV8 or REV10 speaker, and even if they did, it's not going to fit in the Malibu Alpha cans, as they are designed for a 6x9 speaker. Malibu does offer the 6x9 Wet Sound speakers (linked above) in the Alpha can as an option, at least according to their website: http://www.malibuboats.com/news/news-listing/function-style-malibu-boats-towers-accessories.html

Thanks for the details, I will try to convince my wife that we should go with the Rev 10 tower speaker from Wet Sounds with the proper Amp. I like the Wet Sounds look and I think two Rev 10's would give me good bang for the buck.

I have 4 tower speakers, with tower mount and covers that came off my 2012 MXZ that I would be willing to sell. Titan alpha cans with wetsounds 696 on the uppers speakers.
