MB Quart NPT1-116 Nautic Premium 6.5″ Marine Wake Tower Speakers – Black – Pair

MB Quart’s NPT1-116 tower speakers bring outstanding performance and marine-rated durability to your weekend adventures. This tough tower speaker is encased in a strong, lightweight ABS enclosure that protects the speaker while also improving volume and bass response — exactly what you want on your ski boat or ATV.

Quality components for impressive performance

You’re buying marine speakers because you demand the best possible sound wherever you go. MB Quart Nautic speakers give you what you want, with quality components and thoughtful design. The 6-1/2″ woofer’s UV-resistant polypropylene cone is attached to the frame with a durable butyl rubber surround and stabilized with a woven aramid fiber spider that resists weather-and temperature related degradation.

MB Quart mounts the 1″ titanium dome tweeter securely in the grille for superior high-frequency dispersion, and eliminating the possibility of water leaking into the woofer’s internal works. These efficient speakers deliver maximum output without stressing your amplifier.

Bring big-time power to your tower

MB Quart marine 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, MB Quart tower speakers are IP67-rated, which means they meet the highest standards of weather resistance

Versatile mounting options

The package includes 11 hardware mounting options, ranging from 1-1/2″ to 2-3/4″. A centering ring allows the speaker to tip left or right when mounted to an arced mount. A steel mounting plate between the pipe mount and the enclosure adds additional strength. All mounting hardware is die-cast for strength and powder-coated to withstand damaging sunlight, spray, and dust.

NPT1-116 Features:

• Marine Grade Protection / IPX Rating:  LIFE SHIELD: Protected for water and dirt. UV protected against sun fade. 72 Hour UVA Burn In Certified. IPX68 rated.
• Tweeters: A 1 inch Titanium Dome tweeter utilizing Waterproof Coated Silk Surround. The result of this configuration is natural sounding high frequency response while producing high volume (SPL) without the typical harshness or distortions which can occur at higher listening levels.
• Cone Material: Injection Molded Composite Polypropylene Cone: Delivers impactful bass with minimal cone flex which can cause distortion or sloppy bass.
• Surround / Cone Coupling: Co-Molded Santoprene Surrounds: The cone and surround are coupled in such a way to maximize bass frequency power while remaining impervious to the outdoor environment including colder weather.
• Gasket: Molded Polymer Sealing gaskets are utilized to keep the speaker isolated from the mounting surface and improve protection from water intrusion.
• Spider: An Aramid fiber composite spider is used to stabilize the cone and voice coil in all musical situations. Aramid fibers do not degrade over time and are not susceptible to temperature swings.
• Cooling System: Front and rear venting allows air passage through the spider and back plate to exchange air over the voice coil.
• Crossover: Butterworth 12dB per octave crossover with PTC (Positive Thermal Coefficient) tweeter protection.
• Enclosure: Composite (UV resistant ASA + Fiberglass) cast enclosure provides strength and improved bass response with increased volume while remaining very lightweight.
• Frame: Composite (UV Resistant ASA + Fiberglass) Frames are incredible strong and lightweight, but most important for music they are inert, meaning they have no resonance frequency, this assures all music and minimal distortion.
• Motor: The tweeters feature High-Energy N38H Neodymium Motors: The Neodymium magnet is the strongest magnet that can be used while remaining very light-weight. The midwoofer utilizes a High-Energy Ferrite Magnet which allows the magnetic energy to react quickly making the bass sound fast and tight.
• Connectors: Real 10 Karat Gold plated, water resistant connectors provide protection against rust and corrosion.
• Grills: PERSONALIZED FINISH: The Nautic Premium marine and off-road vehicle waterproof speakers are finished in a hardened composite with their color inspired by the black sand beaches of Kaimu Hawaii. Each speaker includes three different grills. Kaimu Black, Miami Silver and Bahama White. Many enthusiasts use the white insert to lightly sand and paint to match their personal style and vehicle.
• Hardware: ​Eleven mounting hardware options from 1.5 to 2.75 inches included.
