Customer Reviews (4.3 / 5 · 3 reviews)

Stella F. ★★★★★

Swapped these into my boat's wake tower setup and the built-in driver saves me from wiring separate tweeters. Even at high volume over engine noise the mids stay clean, and a little spray hasn't bothered the cones at all.

George ★★★★★

These 8" hybrids handle the mids and highs together, so I didn't have to cut extra holes for tweeters in my boat panels. At 250 watts RMS on a 4-ohm amp they stay clean even when I push them, and the cones have shrugged off salt spray all summer.

Nicholas ★★★☆☆

Bought two of these for my off-road buggy and the built-in driver saves me from wiring separate tweeters, which is nice. The 250 RMS rating seems honest, they get loud without distorting, but the 8" size made mounting a pain in my pods.
