Massive sound and marine-rated durability

MB Quart’s NH1-116 marine speakers are a welcome guest at any party. The compression horn design means massive sound, while the marine-rated design ensures that the festivities will continue for seasons to come. Designed for boating or powersports applications, these powerful full-range 6-1/2″ speakers combine outstanding audio performance with outdoor-ready reliability.

Compression horn design

Compression horn designs dramatically improve speaker efficiency. And this is the fun kind of efficiency – it means it takes less amp power to produce more usable volume throughout the frequency spectrum. In other words, you can crank these speakers up and hear it all – highs, lows, and mids.

Quality components for impressive performance

The 1″ titanium dome tweeters, polypropylene cones, and built-in compression horns give you smooth response and seriously impressive volume. The voice coil is made from high temperature copper and wound on a Kapton former, so it’s light, powerful, and durable.

These speakers are vented front and rear, so air passes through the spider and the back plate to exchange air over the voice coil. As a result, they stay cool when they’re being pushed hard. There’s also a built-in crossover, so you’ll hear a smooth transition between high and low frequencies – not irritating distortion.

The UV-resistant cones are attached to the frame with durable butyl rubber surrounds and stabilized with woven fiber composite spiders that resist weather-and temperature related degradation.

Built tough to rock hard

These MB Quart speakers will perform in extreme conditions, with water-resistant components and super-strong composite baskets, magnet covers and grilles. The exterior surfaces are coated with special UV-resistant paint that stands up to broiling sunlight. Inside, the crossover network is conformal-coated to protect against fresh and salt water spray, not to mention dust and sand. In fact, your MB Quart speakers are IPX67-rated, which means they meet the highest standards of weather resistance.
