Wednesday's edition of the Belgian semi-classic Nokere Koerse provides the BMC Racing Team with an opportunity to fine tune its form for the upcoming northern classics.
Good Practice For Echelon Riding
"This is a good race for the younger classics riders on our team," BMC Racing Team Director Sportif John Lelangue said. "Since we don't have one of our big leaders there like Alessandro Ballan or (Marcus) Burghardt or George Hincapie, they can play their own card. It's also good practice for positioning and leading in the echelons." Assistant Sport Director Mike Sayers will direct the squad in the 192 km race. Five of the past seven editions have been decided in field sprints.
Nokere Koerse Roster – March 17
Chad Beyer (USA), Martin Kohler (SWI), Alexander Kristoff (NOR), Alex Moos (SWI), John Murphy (USA), Jackson Stewart (USA), Danilo Wyss (SWI), Simon Zahner (SWI).
Sport Director:

NAPERVILLE, Ill., (UPI) — An Illinois police chief said he arrived home to find two teenagers smoking marijuana in a vehicle parked in front of his house.
Villa Park Police Chief Robert Pavelchik Jr. said he arrived at his Naperville home Sept. 19 to discover Maximilian Salling, 18, and another teenager, whose name was not released, sitting in a 1999 Ford Escort parked outside of his house and allegedly smoking marijuana, the Chicago Sun-Times Media Network reported Tuesday.
"I'm coming down the street, and I see these two guys in a car," Pavelchik said. "I like to say I know most of my neighbors and friends, so I got out of my car with a flashlight in one hand and I said, 'What are you guys doing?'
"They're blowing dope when I come home from work, right in front of my house," Pavelchik said. "I smell the dope, and I see the pipe and the bag of dope on the floor, what we call in plain view."
Pavelchik said he detained the teenagers until Naperville police arrived.

"Breville Espresso Machines, Grinders, Tea Kettles, Milk Frothers and Coffee Makers;
A café quality experience in your kitchen…"
With a rich 75-year history, Breville is an iconic name synonymous with household innovations in Australia and the world over. The company's approachability and willingness to listen to its customers have been at the core of Breville's success since its founding in 1932. Breville's first foray into espresso resulted in the Australian launch of the ESP10 in 2001. Three years later, the company introduced Americans to the ESP8XL espresso machine; Breville has been brewing top-notch coffee ever since.

From forging its way to independence during the colonial days to maintaining some of the most elite sports teams in the nation today, Boston, Massachusetts is a triumphant city. Boston is a colorful city seeping with athletic culture and historical roots; a mecca for both sports enthusiasts and history aficionados alike.
Boston hotels in the downtown area bring tourists within walking distance of some of the most historical sites in the United States, including Fanueil Hall, Boston Common, and the site of the Boston Massacre. Hotels in Boston, MA provide a range of accommodations from luxury lodging and trendy boutique hotels to comfortable Boston resorts and even the oldest hotel in the US, the Omni Parker House Hotel.
Back Bay is another area with a vast selection of hotels in Boston. Back Bay features city tours, shops, restaurants, and notable landmarks, including the Boston Public Library and the Prudential Tower. Vacation at the Boston, Massachusetts hotels in Back Bay for easy access to Copley Square and the Boston Public Garden. Expedia provides visitors with Boston hotel deals, so they can sleep and stay nearby the intriguing architecture in Copley Square and the inviting swan boats in the Boston Public Garden.
Getting Here
Boston-bound visitors commonly book flights to Boston on Expedia to the Boston Logan International Airport, which is only three miles from downtown. From the airport, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) is one of the best ways to arrive in downtown within just six minutes. The MBTA Silver Line bus transports passengers to the South Station, while the airport also offers a free shuttle to Blue Line Airport T Station, which then takes passengers to North Shore, East Boston, and downtown.
By car, visitors traveling from the north and south often take I-95 or I-93, and vacationers from the west generally arrive on I-90. Other vacationers choose to travel to Boston by charter bus to the South Station in downtown Boston. This station welcomes Greyhound and Peter Pan buses, along with other regional bus companies traveling from nearby areas in New England.
Amtrak provides another means of transportation to Beantown, as Amtrak trains arrive in the South Station, North Station, and Back Bay.
Getting AroundVacationers often enjoy booking car rentals so they have the freedom to explore the Boston area at their will. As a general rule, they often avoid driving in the actual city due to the congested streets and expensive parking.
For those without their own sets of wheels, The MBTA, also called The T, offers both a metro and bus system to areas within the city as well as neighboring towns. The T is one of the most common ways of traveling around Boston as it is both reliable and affordable.
Once in the city, however, many vacationers decide to take to the streets on foot as many of the attractions are within walking distance of one another, such as Copley Square, Boston Public Library, and Trinity Church.
Things to Do
Because Boston played such a role in the nation's history, a stroll along The Freedom Trail is a must do for any Bean Town visitor. The Freedom Trail, linking together 17 historic sites in downtown Boston, represents the metaphorical path colonists followed to gain their independence from Great Britain. This two-and-a-half mile trek includes stops at famous landmarks such as Faneuil Hall, which was the meeting hall during colonial times; the Paul Revere House where the famous patriot lived, and even the site of the Boston Massacre.
Every Boston visitor will want to take a trip to the Public Garden after walking the historical path. The Public Garden was America's first public botanical garden, which was designed for peaceful strolling in 1837. Various statues stand scattered around the grounds, including the "Equestrian Statue," of George Washington; a September 11th memorial; and the garden's very first statue, Anna Coleman Ladd's Triton Babies Foundation placed in 1927. However, the garden is perhaps best known for its Swan Boats, which float along on the pond and offer boat rides. Robert Paget invented the Swan Boats in 1877, and the iconic vessels still operate on the pond during the spring and summer months.
Faneuil Hall Marketplace is another favorite attraction among visitors who have book multiple days in the city on their Boston vacation. Back in 1742 the nation's forefathers called Faneuil Hall the "Cradle of Liberty," but now-a-days you might call this the "Cradle of Entertainment." Street vendors, food stalls, restaurants, shops, and street performers fill the cobblestone walkways attracting tourists from all around the globe. The street performers must audition before entertaining at the festival marketplace, so the market guarantees top notch talent. Browse the shops, nosh on Boston specialties, and delight in the live entertainment at Faneuil Hall Market Place.
Touring Copley Square is another popular thing to do while visiting Boston for a few days. Copley Square, located in Back Bay, features a number of prominent landmarks. For one, the John Hancock Tower, which is New England's tallest building, stands tall within the Copley Square neighborhood, along with the prominent Boston Public Library housing some of the country's rarest works. Copley Square visitors are also welcome to tour the Trinity Church, founded in 1733, and the U.S. Historic Landmark, the Old South Church, built in 1874.
Arts & Entertainment
A violinist's vibrato and the pluck of a cellist's strings resonate off the walls of the Symphony Hall's auditorium. Both the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the Boston Pops Orchestra call Symphony Hall home, where they perform flawless concerts to packed audiences. The Boston Symphony Orchestra, founded in 1881, is one of the country's top orchestras, while The Boston Pops, which is an extension of the Boston Symphony, is highly regarded for its performances of famous classics and show tunes. Visitors who plan on treating themselves to a showing of the symphony look into nearby Back Bay hotels for convenient accommodations.
The Walking City also features a Theater District with a number of performing arts centers, such as the Orpheum Theatre, Colonial Theater, and the Cutler Majestic Theatre. The Orpheum Theatre, established in 1852, is one of the oldest theaters in the U.S. and a concert hall where The Police recorded part of their Live! album in 1979. Meanwhile, the Colonial Theatre is popular for Broadway touring productions and pre-Broadway shows, and the Cutler Majestic Theatre is home to the Opera Boston. These theaters offer some of the finest aspects of Boston's art and culture scene.
Founded in 1630 by Puritan colonists, Boston became a major player in the fight for American independence from the British. Boston was responsible for a number of significant events leading up to the Revolutionary War including the Boston Tea Party and the Boston Massacre. The city was then later the site of major key battles: the Battle of Bunker Hill and Siege of Boston. Post the Revolution, Boston thrived as a manufacturing and international trading port, while simultaneously urging the abolition of slavery during the Civil War.
The city of Boston has always been focused on making history, and inventor Alexander Graham Bell was no different. In 1876, Bell uttered just six words to his assistant in his Boston machine shop forever changing the world. "Mr. Watson, come here, I want to see you," Bell spoke during the world's first phone call. Following this monumental invention, Boston has since answered to other calls, focusing on the realm of art, literature, and philosophy, with an emphasis on higher education. Into the 20th century, Boston encouraged urban renewal projects, and the city is now a part of the northeast megalopolis, boasting a highly urbanized region with boutique hotels and resorts. Today, Boston is a popular city remembered for its history, but still regarded for its strong intellectual and political views in modern day.
Visit Fenway Park on any game night and expect to swim through a cheering sea of red and white at the nation's oldest Major League Baseball Stadium. Since the stadium opened in 1912, the Boston Red Sox have called the ballpark near Kenmore Square home. The Red Sox team has made the city proud over the years, winning a total of seven World Series titles. Book a hotel near Fenway Park when the Sox play the New York Yankees to witness undoubtedly one of the greatest rivalries in sport's history and root on the Boston team since the lifted Curse of Bambino.
While the Red Sox may garter much of Boston's attention in the sports realm, the New England Patriots and the Boston Bruins certainly hold their own. In fact, the NFL team has taken home the Super Bowl Championship title three times since 2001. Nicknamed "The Pats," the football team has played in the Super Bowl eight times, making them one of the most successful teams in NFL history. Meanwhile, the Bruins, Boston's professional ice hockey team, have won six Stanley Cups. Only one other team in the National Hockey League has won more Stanley Cups, landing the Bruins in the number two spot for most Stanley Cup wins ever.
While the key players in our nation's history met in Faneuil Hall to strategize during the Revolutionary War era, modern Bostonians gather in this area for another common interest: sports. The Faneuil Hall complex presents various pubs and clubs for cheering on Boston's pride and joy, the Red Sox, Bruins, or Pats, depending on the season. The nightlife spots around Fenway Park also offer bars and venues to celebrate game day victory or wash down defeat.
Although it may seem like blasphemy, surely not every local or visitor lives and breathes sports, and Boston, believe it or not, caters to these non-sports fanatics. Lounge at the swanky roof top bars overlooking the city and harbor, sip on local suds at the breweries, or try not to embarrassingly snort at the hysterical comedy clubs and improve shows. Or for a true one-of-a-kind nighttime experience, find your sea legs and climb aboard one of the cruises from Boston for a booze cruise around the harbor.
Boston might be called Beantown for its affinity for baked beans, which dates back to the city's early colony days, but the Hub serves up so much more than this pork flavored side dish. One major example of this is the city's recent fondness for food trucks, as Boston has begun hosting a collection of mobile food vendors in its various neighborhoods. These food stalls serve up Asian-inspired cuisine, twists on the traditional grilled cheese sandwich, bacon apple crepes, and fresh-picked organic salads, among countless other delectable treats.
As appealing as the food truck choices may be, Boston certainly doesn't skimp on stationary dining options. Indulge in true authentic Italian fare in the North End or savor traditional escargot appetizers at an assortment of French restaurants in Back Bay. And when it comes to seafood, there's no shortage of fresh crustaceans, from the famous New England lobster dinners to the creamiest of Boston clam chowder. Stay at Boston Waterfront hotels for easy access to restaurants serving up some of the freshest seafood in town.
Shopping Guide
Regardless of whether vacationers are staying in Boston airport hotels or hotels near Boston University, there are plenty of shopping venues in between for the savvy shopper and bargain hunter. Vacationers with a knack for shopping treat themselves to designer goods, handmade crafts, and everything in between while visiting the various Boston malls and markets. From upscale boutiques to affordable consignment shops, the city of Boston is a shopping paradise for every fashionista at heart.
A visit to Copley Place opens the doors to shopping at its finest with designer shops and luxury retailers, while Newbury Street features eight blocks of high-end boutiques, chic stores, and quaint bookstores. Don't miss the SoWA Open Maket, Faneuil Hall Marketplace, and Greenway Open Market, which sell eccentric and quirky finds, including handcrafted jewelry, artwork, accessories, and even fresh fruits and veggies. These markets, though only operating during certain seasons and days of the week, present vendors, artists, and farmers who showcase their masterpieces, crafts, and goods for eager shoppers to browse and purchase.
Travel Basics
It's no wonder Boston is called the Walking City as it features a pedestrian friendly town with historic tours and plenty of sights to see from your own two feet. When you're hitting the pavement to explore the city, do yourself and everyone you're traveling with a favor and leave your flip flops and stilettos back at the Boston hotels. Boston is notorious for its uneven cobblestone roads, which are a recipe for twisted ankles and achy feet. Skip the pain and all the complaining, and pack a pair of comfy sneakers to protect your tootsies, so you can enjoy some of the finest sites in New England.
As charming and inviting as Boston may be to both visitors and locals, just as it is the case in any bustling metropolis, the possibility of crime does exist. To avoid seeming like an easy target, keep a strong hold on your backpack or purse at all times, and travel with your wallet in your front pockets. Use common sense when walking the streets at night and riding the subway, stick to well-lit areas, travel with others, and don't hop on empty trolleys or trains. It's also a good rule of thumb to ask for directions inside hotel lobbies or restaurants instead inquiring on the sidewalks outside.
Personalities & Culture
A word of advice to Boston bound vacationers is to avoid asking a local to say the phrase, "park the car in Harvard Yard." And while you're at it, resist the urge to attempt the phrase yourself in your own Bostonian rendition. Yes, Boston locals have an accent unique to their hub, an endearing combination of a dropped pronunciation of the letter "R" at the end of words and the substitution of a soft "I" sound for an "ar" spelling. Though vacationers are often tempted to mimic the accent themselves, there are few things which annoy locals more. Stick to your own speech and silently admire the Bostonian accent for the best chances of making friends with the locals.
Bostonians have a reputation for being direct, much like the New Yorker stereotype, and they are also known for driving aggressively. Locals tend to be passionate individuals who lack patience, especially when it comes to slow drivers. Though of course not all Bostonians behave this way, simply respect the locals and their cultures for the most positive experience and opportunity to make friends. Also realize this is a big city, which by virtue attracts a variety of different cultures and people from diverse backgrounds who temporary stay at Boston hotels or take up residency. So always remember to keep an open mind while sightseeing in this eclectic city.
Weather & Climate
The weather in Boston, and New England in general, can be tricky, as it can vary greatly from morning to afternoon. For some of the best weather and temperatures though, the months between June and November are a prime time to visit. Summer temperatures sometimes reach the 80s and bring humidity, while the autumn months are slightly cooler and more pleasant and comfortable. Because Boston is a walking city, you may want to take advantage of these warmer months as the winters can be frigid.
If you're planning to visit Boston during the winter months, don't forget to pack boots, a warm jacket, and even scarves, mittens, and hats. Winter temperatures range between the 20 and 40 degree Fahrenheit range, and snowflakes are a common occurrence. If you're not a fan of snow, we recommend holding off visiting until summer or autumn to potentially avoid trekking knee-high in the white stuff! Though you may need to bundle up for a visit during winter, this season sees fewer tourists, so it's the best time to snag Boston hotel deals and packages.
Boston caters to the weather, serving up New England chowder to warm you up on a chilly day, offering breezy swan boat rides on those muggy afternoons, and providing you with a comfortable stay regardless of what season you book your Massachusetts getaway.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the JVC CS-V6837 by John Pollard Why replace your car's original speakers? The speakers that originally came in your car were made from inexpensive materials, designed to create acceptable sound at the lowest possible cost to the manufacturer. If you love music, you deserve better. Name-brand aftermarket speakers deliver fuller, richer sound with considerably more detail and nuance, and they're capable of playing louder and cleaner than factory speakers. Connect new speakers to your factory radio and you'll get the best possible sound from your dealer-equipped system. Pair them up with a new car stereo for a level of enjoyment that can rival a high-fidelity home audio experience. Upgrade your factory speakers Whether you're suffering with a blown speaker or you just want hear a little more detail in your music, JVC's DRVN speakers have you covered. The CS-V6837 5"x7"/6"x8" speakers feature a durable woofer cone made from a mixture of Aramid, carbon fiber, and mica, along with a 1/2" PEI tweeter and 1" PEI midrange that'll increase your music's clarity. These speakers will give you a solid boost in sound quality, even when powered by your factory radio. Grilles are not included – factory grilles are appropriate for most installations.

Written By Kevin, Smithtown New York on Monday, September 29, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) hey, you can't beat these speakers. They're well priced and work perfectly. Nice quality sound. Pros: inexpensive good build quality Cons: none that I can find Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 JVC CS-V6837 for 2012 Ford Escape Written By JVC CS-V6837 for 2012 Ford Escape, SF, CA on Wednesday, August 27, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers are definitely an upgrade from stock - much stronger magnet, better cone material, and three-way compared to two. I expect them to last much longer. I was replacing a blown front stock speaker. From the specifications, I was expecting a greater improvement than I experienced. I purposely selected these speakers for their low RMS rating since I did not want to add an amp. It seemed like they would be very efficient and still give a significant boost in sound quality. However, the improvement is marginal compared to stock. The bass is not as well defined as I would like and the highs are not very sharp for a three-way speaker. I think these would probably sound much better over stock with a new head unit (which would add more power) or an amp. For the money, I would suggest the pioneer TS-G6844R. Cost less and makes a sound quality is much better even with stock. I have the pioneers in Ford Explorer which I ran with just the stock head unit and the difference in sound quality was noticeable. Not so with the JVCs. These speakers need power. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 JVC Automotive Speakers Written By Gerald, Spring, Texas on Monday, August 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are great speakers. The sound is great and the instellation is easy except for the wiring adaptor. That adaptor says it will work on an F150. But I read on all the people who have an F150 or any F series truck, it will not fit the front speakers. Others said it will fit the rear, I didn't buy any rear speakers. Pros: Sounds good, easy installation. Cons: Wiring adaptor will not work on front speakers. Was this review helpful?

Written By MK from Texas, The Woodlands, TX on Saturday, May 10, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers are great drop replacements for the decent but limited OEM speakers found in most late model Fords. They really wake up the sound of Shaker 500 system in my Mustang. They were also a perfect fit in the doors with no clearance issues with the door panels.

My original speakers were no longer functional because of age and degradation of the paper and rubber materials used. I just needed new speakers for an older car. These worked fine, and most importantly, I got great directions and information about how to install them. Way more than I thought I would get, and must more help than one would get from a store (if there was one here on Maui). Pros: Great help from Crutchfield. I had no fear of breaking something when doing this installation job myself. No problems at all. Cons: I don't have any 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Matched it with my JVC KW-XR810 unit----PERFECT! (all 4) Pros: Sound is Fantastic. Installs easily. Double check your wiring as always. These are way better than the factory speakers. Cons: None Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great Speakers for the Money! Written By Walt H. (2001 F150 SuperCrew), Broomfield, CO on Saturday, February 08, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great speakers for the money and a big improvement over factory. I installed these on a 2001 F150 SuperCrew on all 4 doors. Install was fairly straight forward and took me a little more than an hour. Directions were perfect and took all the guess work out of removing the door panels. I really like the idea of having three way speakers and this fit well. I did not realize this before the purchase but JVC and Kenwood are the same company. Pros: Great improvement in audio over factory speakers. Much cleaner sound. The installation was also easier than expected with the help of the master sheets provided and the wiring harnesses. Cons: As someone else noted in the reviews, a plastic mounting piece is glued onto the speaker and is easily pried up if you unscrew the speak. I had one lift after I backed a screw out and ended up just peeling it off. Was not an issue for my install but something to note. Also, one of the provided wiring harness adapters for the speakers was a pain to connect. It turned out the wire popped out of the adapter and I lost sound. I removed the door panel again and fixed. Just a pain. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I've purchased many times before from Crutchfield and have always been happy with the products and service. These JVC speakers are great. Music sounds so much better now compared to with the factory speakers I had I on my '03 Toyota Tacoma. The installation was was pretty straight forward - just as described in the information provided by Crutchfield. In summary , they're great speakers for the price and I'm happy with the Pros: Great sound!! Cons: Some modification was required on my truck but this was noted on the Crutchfield website so I knew about it before hand.

Thank you to Rusty for telling me about these! '98 Ford Ranger and did not want to spend to much money. Saved a bunch of money and they sound great with only power coming from my Alpine deck I bought! Pros: Great sound without an amp! Cons: None 11 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 questions already asked I know this question is kind of vague, but how is the bass output on these? I know enough not to over do the volume at a certain point. That being said, if im blasting my tunes they wont blow easily right? [ Matt Bedo Jun 09, 2014 ] 9 answers I bought these speakers and a new receiver for my girlfriend. She loves the sound that now feels her little SUV. Output from the bass is just right. Definitely recommended! [ Steven Jun 12, 2014 ] I put 4 of these speakers in my 2007 Ranger. I prefer driving with my windows down instead of using the A/C whenever possible, so I was looking for good sound quality at loud volume to overcome road and wind noise. These speakers work great, whether I am listening to music or to NPR. I have had to turn the volume nearly to max on my factory stereo on occasion to hear clearly, and the speakers are fine. May need to upgrade my stereo soon, but that's another matter. Speakers are a great value. [ robert Jun 11, 2014 ] I was pushing 125 w to them and they sounded fine. However the base output needs to be pampered a bit with backings. Overall I'm pleased with them and feel they are a great value for the money. [ JASON Jun 11, 2014 ] Originally I purchased 5" round Kenwood for 2004 Mustang front door panels to compliment 6x8 Kenwood rear deck. As you could expect there was no bass in the front and all of the sound was coming from the rear. I replaced the 5" round with these 6x8 JVC in the front door panels. Made all the difference. Full sound all around. Very happy with JVC Performance. I listen loud as well. So I would say probably not easily blown. I am only running 25 wattts / channel. [ Roger Jun 10, 2014 ] I FOUND THAT PAIRED WITH THE CORRECT AMP, THESE SPEAKERS PERFORMED GREAT. IF OVER POWERED SUCH AS WITH ANY SPEAKER THEN YOU HAVE A CHANCE OF BLOWING THEM. FOR THE MONEY THEY SHOULD DO FINE. SET YOUR AMP CORRECTLY AND INSTALLING SOUND DEADNING MATT WILL GREATLY INMPROVE THE SOUND. I HAVE FOUND THAT BY INSTALLING SOUND DEADNER SUCH AS DYNAMAT OR STINGER MAT THAT EVEN A CHEAP SET OF SPEAKERS CAN BE MADE TO SOUND PRETTY GOOD. IF YOU WANT SERIOUS SOUND THEN FOCAL WOULD BE MY CHOICE, BUT I CAN'T AFFORD THOSE SO JVC AND INFINITY WILL HAVE TO DO. GOOD LUCK ! [ DUKE Jun 10, 2014 ] The bass output is great. Everybody stop and ask what kind of speakers do you have? [ BOYD Jun 10, 2014 ] Matt, it's all about matching the output per channel on your tuner/amp with the rating of the speaker. Personally I wouldn't run an amp through speakers that is over 80% of the RMS rating of the speaker.... always good to leave a little headroom ! [ Vicki Jun 10, 2014 ] That helps! Im going to go ahead and get me a pair. Thanks a lot. ~Matt [ Matt Bedo Jun 10, 2014 ] Matt B, I believe the bass output is decent for the price. However I have two stock door subs in my mustang that compliment these nicely so I've never had them playing without the door subs. I haven't blown the pair I have and they handle blasting music quite well with little to no distortion. Overall, for the price, you can't beat them. Hope this helps, Denver [ Denver Jun 09, 2014 ] im a rookie when it comes to this stuff, but do these speakers require an amp to run them? [ Hunter May 13, 2014 ] 8 answers no ,just a receiver will do the job,of course an amp will give a cleaner richer sound,but a good mid power receiver will give good sound [ KYNDAL A May 15, 2014 ] No amp needed. They sound good using a 25 watt JVC radio. [ Willard May 14, 2014 ] It's not necessary to wire to an amp. You can wire to an amp if you like, will sound just fine wiring to the radio. [ Kingston May 14, 2014 ] no.. [ STEVEN May 14, 2014 ] Teh amp in your receiver should have enough power to run them. [ JIMMY May 14, 2014 ] They are capable of being amped for higher output, but I've got them running off my stock amp and it powers them loud enough to hurt my ears with no distortion. 2007 Ford Mustang [ CHRIS R May 14, 2014 ] Not required no, but I am running a 200 watt 4 channel. with 4 speakers.

Review by Curtis Jasa, President, Navy Diver Challenge, Iowa, added 10/18/13: Navy Diver Challenge Approved
We got a bunch of Aquapacs direct from the manufacturer in England. In a very simple test we filled the bag up with newspaper and jumped off of the diving board into the deep end of the pool. We went down no more than a couple meters as the bags also float quite well. We swam it to the side and the newspaper was completely dry. We have since beat them, cut them, torn them, ripped them and even burned them to get a feel for the product. This one was simple. Navy Diver Challenge Approved. Nice job, mates.

2012 Psalms
The Semillon hits the nose with minerality right off the bat while the Sauvignon Blanc brings brightness and a touch of fruit aroma. The palate opens with beautiful kiwi and grapefruit then moves into the vanilla and spice notes from the barrel. The wine rounds out with a creamy mouth feel and slight touch of lemon pudding leading into the long, brilliant finish.
The Winemaking
This wine is 100% barrel fermented in 60% new Russian oak. The barrel adds color, flavor, sugar, and aromatics of spice, vanilla, and toast. The barrels also build a fuller and creamier structure, and lengthen the finish considerably. This extremely tight grained Russian oak is perfect for our Psalms program.
The Vineyard
The Sauvignon Blanc comes from the Lambentz vineyard located in Pope Valley just east of Howell Mountain. The fruit is consistently bright and beautiful. The Semillon comes from a valley floor vineyard in Yountville. This Semillon vineyard brings beautiful minerality and body to the Semillon to create a perfect balance in this Psalms blend.
The Vintage
The 2012 vintage was a marvelous one. The elements all aligned to create a nearly perfect environment in Napa and Northern California. The wines of 2012 are packed with concentrated fruit flavors while being balanced and layered in complexity.
