DS18 NXL-X8TP/BK HYDRO 8" 125W RMS Marine Tower Speakers, RGB LED Lighting, Black, Pair

The DS18 NXL-X8TP/BK HYDRO marine tower speaker pair is built to project music from a wakeboard tower, boat arch, or compatible powersports roll bar. Finished in black, each enclosed 8-inch speaker combines a purpose-built marine enclosure with full-range output and illuminated RGB accents. This is the standard ferrite/hybrid-magnet configuration, rather than the higher-output NEO version.

Installation & Setup

• Install on a securely supported 1"–2" round tube, use protective clamp pads, and orient speakers before final tightening
• Use an amplifier matched to the pair’s RMS handling and 4-ohm load; apply an appropriate high-pass filter
• Connect RGB lighting to a suitably rated 12V lighting source/controller; lighting leads are separate from audio conductors
• Protect wiring from sharp edges, moving tower joints, and water collection points
• Check overhead clearances and mounting security before operating a boat or powersports vehicle

Compatibility

• Fits compatible 1"–2" diameter round wakeboard tower, roll bar, or marine mounting tubes; other sizes require separately selected adapters
• Works with 4-ohm-rated full-range amplifiers and compatible RGB lighting controllers
