Know before you buy
The R1 speakers require a cutout diameter of 180 mm. We recommend measuring your current mounting holes to ensure they match before installation.
The speakers feature integrated RGB lighting that requires a compatible LED controller to manage colors and patterns. You will need to wire the lighting leads to your controller separately from the audio signal.
Yes, they are engineered with extreme saltwater and UV resistance to withstand harsh marine conditions. The included watertight Deutsch wiring harness further ensures that your connections remain protected from moisture and corrosion.
With a sensitivity of 90 dB, these speakers are efficient and can perform well with many head units. However, to reach the full 100 Watts RMS power handling and achieve optimal sound clarity at higher volumes, an external marine amplifier is recommended.
The 3.325-inch mounting depth allows for installation in tighter spaces where deeper speakers might interfere with boat structures or storage compartments. This provides more flexibility when planning your audio layout.
Klippel testing is a precision measurement process that analyzes speaker performance to ensure high accuracy and low distortion. It confirms that the R1 speakers are engineered to deliver clean, consistent sound output.
