Why Choose Rockford Fosgate RM1652W-MB Marine Speakers?
Takes Extreme Measures to Ensure Optimum Performance
Rockford Fosgate's RM Element Ready™ design takes into account the devastating effects of the outdoor environment and takes extreme measures to ensure optimum performance. The RM1652W-MB is a black 6.5" Element Ready™ speaker loaded into a sealed enclosure.
Protected by a Stainless Steel Grille
The speaker features a 6.5" woofer and 1" bridge-mounted tweeter and is protected by a stainless steel grille. Both the speaker and high-density polyethylene enclosure are treated with UV inhibitors and conform to UV and water industry standards. An optional cast aluminum C-Clamp is available with near 100% rotation for unlimited flexibility.
Wakeboard Tower Speakers Give You Strong Performance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- • Why doesn't the bass sound as strong as expected?
These compact tower speakers are designed for clear full-range sound, not deep subwoofer bass. Use a proper high-pass filter and add a subwoofer if deeper bass is needed.
- • Why do the speakers sound harsh at high volume?
The aluminum dome tweeter can become more noticeable at higher levels. Reduce excessive treble or gain and avoid pushing the speakers beyond their rated power.
- • Why aren't they as loud as I expected?
They have an 89 dB sensitivity and are rated at 75 watts RMS per speaker. A clean amplifier with adequate power can provide better output than a weak factory source.
- • Can I connect them directly to my factory stereo?
Yes, but the available power may limit their output. An aftermarket amplifier can provide more headroom when higher volume levels are needed.
- • Why is one speaker quieter than the other?
Check the speaker connections, quick-disconnect harness, amplifier channels, and balance settings. Swap channels to determine whether the issue follows the speaker or wiring.
- • Why are my speakers distorting when I increase the bass?
Excessive low-frequency boost can cause the drivers to work beyond their intended range. Use a 100 Hz high-pass filter to protect the speakers at higher power levels.
- • Why don't the mounting brackets fit my tower?
The speakers use specific mounting couplers and hardware. Check the tower diameter and mounting hardware before installation, especially when replacing existing speakers.
- • Why is water getting into the speaker enclosure?
Check the mounting hardware, wire entry points, and enclosure for damage. Make sure the included wire grommets and connections are properly sealed during installation.
- • Why does the speaker vibrate or rattle while the boat is moving?
Inspect the mounting couplers, bolts, nuts, and safety lanyards. Loose hardware can create vibration or allow the enclosure to move on the tower.
- • Can I use these speakers in a wet or saltwater environment?
Yes. They are built as marine-grade tower speakers with UV-resistant materials and corrosion-resistant components. Proper installation and maintenance are still important.
