INSTALLATION
Installation Considerations before attempting to Install,
- Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before attempting to install these speakers.
- For safety. disconnect the negative battery terminal from the battery prior to beginning the installation.
- For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting speakers in place
- Use high-quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize signal or power loss.
- Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when working on any vehicle. If installing is in a boat, take care not to cut or drill through the main hull.
- Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the vehicle or hull area provides the best protection.
- Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic grommets to protect any wires routed through metal, especially the firewall.
Mounting
- Determine where the speakers will be mounted. Ensure an area large enough for the speaker to mount Be sure that the mounting location is deep enough for the speaker to fit: only mount to a flat surface. Use extra caution when mounting on panels with urethane foam.
- Refer to the specification chart to determine the proper diameter hole to cut for your speaker model.
- Mark the locations for the mounting mews. Drill the holes with a 118″ bit.
- Feed the speaker wires through the cutout and connect to the speaker terminals. Be sure to observe proper polarity when connecting the wires. The speaker’s positive terminal is indicated with a” +”.
- Fit the speaker and mount into place using six (6) screws.
- Tighten the screws until the speaker is snug in place

FAQs
You need a speaker system that sounds nice at high volume for marine applications. Think about investing in maritime speakers that have better power handling, durability, and sensitivity.
In order to handle the high frequencies and precisely reproduce the sound spectrum of your music, two-way, or coaxial, speakers have a second tweeter housed inside the woofer. For more richness and realism, three-way, or triaxial, speakers combine a midrange driver with a separate woofer and tweeter.
The majority of maritime stereos come equipped with an amplifier, some of which are very powerful. Without an external amplifier, good sound is definitely feasible. Almost always, you can add an amplifier later, so I advise most people to test their stereo without one first.
Marine speakers are those that are more suitable for use in the water. They are typically more durable in addition to being water-resistant. Marine speakers are designed to withstand various exposures to moisture, climate, and weather.
Products that are Marine Grade or Marine Rated can endure marine environments. Marine-grade components can be exposed to the sun and wind as well as moisture (although not necessarily submersion). They can withstand high ambient temperatures and won’t burn if a little water is splashed on them.
Marine speakers are made specifically for use on boats. Thorough testing guarantees that they will withstand the elements.
Heavy-duty materials are used to construct marine speakers to ensure their durability in the more challenging marine environment. They are made of stainless steel components to withstand sudden temperature changes, as well as special plastic to withstand the elements.
In order to handle the high frequencies and precisely reproduce the sound spectrum of your music, two-way, or coaxial, speakers have a second tweeter housed inside the woofer. For more richness and realism, three-way, or triaxial, speakers combine a midrange driver with a separate woofer and tweeter.
For optimum sound quality, you should always install your full-range speakers as high as you can. Don’t mount them near your feet or under seats. You should think about mounting speakers above your head on bigger boats and wherever it is practical. On the other hand, subwoofers are the exact opposite.
A set of speakers, amplifiers, and other devices are part of the marine audio system, which is used to play music on boats.
The maritime speaker has passable bass performance and a solid full-range sound response between 80 Hz and 20 kHz.
Most marine speakers are incredibly long-lasting and sturdy. Make sure the speakers you are purchasing are high-quality, rust- and corrosion-resistant, and have sturdy construction. For good weather protection, look for speakers with plastic cones, such as those with polypropylene and neoprene rubber surrounds.
A completely charged battery may be charged from empty in roughly 4 hours.
The speaker wire is on a separate line, and the leds are powered by a separate 12-volt source.
No. The grill cannot be removed.
