Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 8.8" 4-Ohm Marine Speakers with RBG LED Lighting - Silver - Pair

Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 8.8" Marine Speakers with RGB LED Lights and White Grilles - Silver - Pair

Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 speakers are built for boat owners who want powerful sound, refined styling, and durable marine construction in the same package. The Silver White sport grille gives these speakers a clean, sophisticated appearance, while the integrated RGB LED lighting lets you customize the onboard atmosphere.

Built for Harsh Marine Conditions

The Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 carries Hertz Pure Marine Certification with an IP65 protection grade. It also complies with ASTM-D4329 for UV resistance and ASTM-B117 for salt fog resistance. Why does that matter on the water? Marine audio has to deal with conditions that ordinary speakers may not, so the use of UV- and salt-resistant materials helps support long-term durability.

The marine-grade construction combines a UV- and salt-resistant design with components intended for demanding environments. Gold-plated corrosion-resistant terminals also provide stable, long-lasting electrical connections, helping the speaker maintain a dependable connection over time.

Large Woofer for Stronger Low Frequencies

At the center of the Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 is an oversized 8.8-inch long-throw woofer with a 32 mm (1.26-inch) voice coil. It is specifically tuned for infinite baffle applications, giving the speaker a foundation for deeper, more powerful, and controlled low-frequency performance.

Think of the larger woofer as the engine behind the low end. Its size and long-throw design are focused on producing the fuller bass performance expected from a serious marine audio system, while the overall speaker design keeps the presentation controlled.

Detailed High-Frequency Performance

The Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 uses a 1.4-inch neodymium tweeter with a PEI dome, faceplate, and acoustic lens. This combination is optimized for superior off-axis dispersion and higher SPL, helping deliver high-frequency detail across the open-air listening environment.

The completely re-engineered crossover is sealed and protected, while resettable solid-state tweeter protection adds another layer of reliability. The result is a more immersive and dynamic sound experience designed for open-air conditions.

Silver White Sport Grille

The Silver White sport grille gives the Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 a polished look that works especially well with bright interiors and sophisticated deck layouts. Its redesigned central element features a parametric mesh grille that combines refined aesthetics with acoustic transparency.

The grille is designed to allow efficient high-frequency transfer while providing robust protection. It acts like a carefully shaped screen: visually clean, but designed to let the sound move through without getting in the way.

RGB Lighting for a Customized Atmosphere

Integrated RGB LED lighting gives the Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 another way to complement your vessel. The lighting can be customized to create an onboard atmosphere that fits different styles and deck layouts, adding a visual element without taking away from the speaker's clean appearance.

A Refined Marine Audio Package

The Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 brings together an oversized long-throw woofer, a 1.4-inch neodymium PEI tweeter, a redesigned crossover, marine-grade materials, and integrated RGB lighting. Add the Silver White sport grille, and the result is a speaker designed to make both its sound and appearance stand out on board.

For boat owners looking for deeper low-frequency performance, detailed highs, durable marine construction, and customizable lighting, the Hertz HMX8.8S-LD-SW.2 combines those elements into one cohesive speaker design. The focus stays on powerful acoustic impact without sacrificing the refined look of the vessel.
