Make A Splash This Summer With Your Wakeboard Tower Speakers

Two Wakeboard Tower Speaker Packages that Pack a Punch in 2021

If you’re looking to make a splash out on the waves with your marine audio equipment, then you’re going to need a reliable pair of speakers. Not only do your speakers need to be powered up so that their sound carries in an open environment, they also need to be seaworthy and able to handle the choppy waters of the Pacific.

With boating season in full swing, many of our customers here at Car Stereo City San Diego are looking to upgrade their marine audio, and no item is more popular than wakeboard tower speakers. If you’re new to boating, the wakeboard tower and wakeboard tower rack make up the structure that you affix to either side. Rope is tied to the middle point of the wakeboard tower that hangs over the boat, so that wakeboarders have the downward angle they need on the connection to catch waves. This overhanging portion also happens to be a great place to set up speakers because it allows for the speakers to be much bigger since they’re not installed into the main body of the boat. Wakeboard tower speakers are generally much bigger and more powerful than standard boat speakers as well, which is why many boat owners in the San Diego area are upgrading with wakeboard tower packages. Here are a couple of our favorites that we carry at Car Stereo City San Diego.

Roswell R1 Pro Tower 

When selecting wakeboard tower speakers, you want to go with high-quality construction that can take any number of bumps, bruises, or unexpected rain/moisture, which is why we love the Roswell R1 Pro Tower. This award-winning wakeboard tower package comes with two 8” marine tower speakers and one 1” compression tweeter that attaches easily to your wakeboard tower rack using the included clamps. The sealed motor structure of the speakers and wiring harness ensures that you have a watertight connection all the way through the system. These speakers are easy on the eyes too, especially at night when you can activate the multi-colored LEDs that elevate your on-the-water party experience. They also help other boaters spot you in low-light situations as well. And, of course, no wakeboard tower speakers would be complete without solid construction. Roswell’s R1 Pro Tower package resists water, salt, dust, and harmful UV rays. These babies are built to last.

Performance specs of the Roswell R1 Pro Tower Speakers

·   200 watts RMS (400 watts peak power)

·   60 – 20,000 Hz frequency response

·   95 dB woofer sensitivity

·   103 dB tweeter sensitivity

·   4 ohms impedance

JL Audio M6 Series Wakeboard Tower Speakers 

If you’re a fan of JL Audio products for cars, you’re going to love them when it comes to marine audio, too. What we dig about the JL Audio M6 Series Wakeboard Tower speaker set is that it’s a lot of sound for not a ton of cash (retails for under $1,500). In fact, the M6 series scales a bit bigger than the previously mentioned Roswell R1 Pro Tower clocking in at 8.8” for their pair of tower speakers. The tweeter is also a little bit bigger than the Roswell, coming in at 1.3” with a silk dome construction. And JL Audio doesn’t pump the brakes when it comes to aesthetics. You’ll be riding the waves in style via the Transflective™ RGB LED lighting that emits from the cones, which is visible both in low-light and daytime situations. The M6 Series is built of marine-grade stainless steel and synthetic fibers, which means it’s built to hold up against UV rays, sea splash, and any other environmental challenge you may encounter on the open waters.

One thing we do want to note about these speakers is that the mounting clamps are sold separately, so make sure to buy those as well if you end up moving forward with the M6 series of wakeboard tower speakers.  

Performance specs of JL Audio M6 Series Wakeboard Tower Speakers

·   125 watts RMS (250 watts peak power)

·   38 – 20,000 Hz frequency response

·   90.5 sensitivity

·   4 ohms impedance
