Hardly a marine system. The cord used for the microphone dry rotted after one season. The "revolutionary" clamp used on the speakers broke after a two months. The sound is nice but should be considered ......junk.

I put these on our boat at the beginning of last season and used them all season long. First, the sound quality is excellent. Throughout the sound range, they sound good, and we've had them cranked way up several times and they sound great at louder volumes, too.
The mic is also great, as it lets you talk to other boats (assuming they are behind or to the side of you, considering the direction the speakers point) as well as skiers or tubers you are pulling. The fact that you can adjust the mic level independent of the stereo level is also great -- you can kill the music and talk to a skier, for example. The one mistake I made when setting it all up is I had the gain level set moderately low, since we don't pump the tunes that loud typically. With it set low, I couldn't get enough mic volume to speak to a person being towed while in motion. Of course, if you turn it up, make sure to warn anyone sitting in the back seats before you talk unless you want their ears to start bleeding.
The installation steps are easy, and you don't have to know that much about stereos to connect it all up. The instructions are pretty good. However, if you want to install the mic plate, you'll have to drill a large hole in your boat for the cable and four smaller ones for the screws to secure it. Go slow, use the right drill bit, and you won't mess up your gelcoat. The speaker cables are well insulated, which is great, but it will make fishing them through a wakeboard tower quite tedious.
The look of the speakers is about what you'd expect from the pictures. They look good, if subtle -- definitely not flashy like some other speaker cans. I preferred this look, but some may not. One thing I will say, is that after hitting my head (I'm 6'2" and the tower is not a particularly high one) several times, I appreciated the plastic housing. If they were metal, I probably would have dented them and/or bled a few times.
As a final note, I noticed when I took the speakers off at the end of the season (before winterizing/storing the boat) that one of the speakers had water in it. Not a ton, but probably 1-2 oz. I hung them up at an angle and the water drained. Hopefully this won't affect them long term, as Infinity doesn't make replacement parts for consumers for these.

I purchased this system in June of 2009 (from another site). Was just looking for a friend who recently bought a boat and realized I had never posted a review for these speakers on Amazon. Figured why not.

So, purchased in June of 2009, installed July of 2009. They are on a Yamaha 212X. I had them installed by a car audio shop. They have worked great since then. No issues as mentioned by other posters. No dry rot or overheating of amp. I will note that our boat is always covered (shielded from the sun), but the speakers are exposed year round - sun, rain, hail, etc. - none of which seems to have affected performance. The amp is mounted up under the dash with decent airflow.

The system sounds great and we have received several compliments on sound and are usually the music for each boating tie-up. At half of retail, they are a steal for speakers, amp & mic. Don't expect these speakers to compare to Wet Sounds... You do somewhat get what you pay for, but 2 Wet Sounds and an amp will set you back $2.5k. For us though, this system is sufficiently loud and having the microphone to communicate with riders has been quite useful. I have no problem recommending this setup to someone else based on my personal experience.
