Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- • Why does the US2-C65K-150 have less volume than expected?
Open-air UTVs naturally lose some perceived loudness because there are no enclosed cabin surfaces to contain the sound. Speaker placement, amplifier output, and the distance between the speakers and occupants can also affect the final volume.
- • Can I connect the US2-C65K-150 directly to my factory head unit?
It depends on the output capability and wiring of the factory audio system. Before connecting the speakers directly, confirm that the head unit can safely drive their impedance and provide suitable power.
- • Why does the speaker sound thin after installation?
A weak low-end response can result from enclosure size, speaker placement, amplifier crossover settings, or incorrect polarity. Verify that both speakers are wired with matching positive and negative polarity.
- • What causes a speaker to crackle during acceleration?
If the crackling appears when the engine speed changes, inspect the power and ground connections for electrical interference or instability. Signal cables routed too close to power wiring can also introduce unwanted noise.
- • How do I protect the US2-C65K-150 wiring from trail debris?
Secure the wiring along a protected route and use suitable loom or protective covering where cables could contact the chassis. Keep connections away from areas where mud, rocks, or water can repeatedly strike them.
- • Why does one speaker become quieter after riding through water?
Check the connector and wiring for moisture, corrosion, or a partially disconnected terminal. Allow wet connections to dry and inspect them for damage before assuming the speaker itself has failed.
- • Can I use the US2-C65K-150 with a subwoofer?
Yes. A subwoofer can handle the deepest frequencies while the 6.5-inch speakers focus more on vocals and mid/high frequencies. Proper amplifier crossover settings can help the components work together more effectively.
- • Why do the speakers sound fine at low volume but rough at high volume?
This commonly points to the amplifier being driven beyond its clean operating range or the gain being set too high. Reduce the gain and source volume slightly to determine whether the distortion disappears.
- • What should I check when the speaker suddenly goes silent?
Inspect the speaker connection, amplifier channel, fuse, source settings, and wiring first. A continuity or channel-swap test can help identify whether the interruption is caused by the speaker, cable, or audio electronics.
- • Does the US2-C65K-150 require special mounting hardware?
The required hardware depends on the enclosure or vehicle location where the speaker is being installed. Confirm the mounting depth, cutout diameter, screw pattern, and available clearance before purchasing additional hardware.

- Marine speakers are great for boats; however boat speakers don’t get as wet, dirty or muddy as you do in a Side X Side. WP-A6 speakers feature an EPDM duo lock gasket surrounding the speaker to keep the water out and the sound pressure in. EPDM conforms to the surface and seals tight no matter where you ride, in direct UV, extreme heat, or in freezing temps. Reliability meets control with the Santoprene surround; a 30% lighter thermoplastic elastomer surrounding the polypropylene cone for exceptional volume and clarity in the harshest conditions.
- The SSV Works WP-A6 speaker features a unique positive lock connector to prevent speaker wire detachment inside the enclosure. No matter how hard you drive, your speakers will keep on rockin’ with 4ohms and 60w RMS/120w peak power.
