Customer Reviews
Rating:  - Nice Boat Speakers
I purchaced these speakers for my cabin cruser. The features I liked were the large woofer and the 6 ohm rating that allowed them to be used with the marine stereo, I'm satisfied with my purchace.
I listened to them at a local dealer who wanted $80 more for them and only had the display units in stock.
The speaker boxes were large but I had already picked a good place to mount them.
The sound is very nice, more base than I expected, the first speakers I've owned that I had to adjust the base tone down a little. They are a little lacking in the mid range and the dual tweaters are a little shrill. The EQ on the stereo and adjusting the placement helped.
The 200 watt marine stereo has enough power to make them sound good but a good amplifer would be needed if you like loud music. I'm looking at the Yamaha aw350 to replace the speakers in the helm area.
Rating:  - Expected more.
I bought these to replace my tiny, 5 year old, cheapo - $25 Zenith speakers that I bought at Odd Lots, which actually still worked and sounded pretty good. I searched and searched for "outdoor speakers'. Must have read a million reviews. Finally I settled on the Yamahas because of the name.
The Yamahas are twice the size, 6 times the cost, but unfortunately only marginally better. With a 6 ½" woofer I expected much more base and the duo tweeters sound tinny.
They only come in white (I really wanted black) and the instructions have a section on "how to paint your speakers". Seems weird.
I gave them a 3, but perhaps a 3.5 is more accurate.
