Thread:

Standard Speakers or Marine Speakers?

Hello everyone,

Just registered here and this is my first post. I Just bought a 2005 Shockwave Tremor 25', took her out for the first time last week and she ran like a champ! I currently have six 6X9 speakers all around the boat and 2 of them just dead on me, so I plan on buying all new speakers. My question is this, should i go with Marine grade speakers or standard name brand speakers? The speakers that I currently have don't appear to be marine type speakers....

i use good ol regular speakers and have for a while i put them out of harms way put a grill cover on em just in case and ive never had a problem one out of em

You can find the "R" models for $60-80 a pair, depending on where and when.

Regular car speakers will sound a bit better and by the time they finally whither from the moist/open exposure - you will be ready for newer models/upgrades anyway.

Thanks!
