Why Choose JL Audio M6-100CT-C/S-GwGm Car Tweeters?
Marine-Grade Silk Dome Tweeters
The 1" silk dome tweeters deliver clear, detailed high frequencies that cut through wind, water, and boat noise. In-line high-pass filters protect the tweeters and ensure smooth, distortion-free sound when connected to an outboard amplifier or head unit.
Marine-Ready Durability – Flexible Installation
These tweeters are corrosion- and UV-resistant, built to withstand harsh marine environments including salt air, moisture, and sun exposure. Flush- or surface-mountable, they include Classic and Sport trim rings with mounting hardware for versatile installation options.
Enhanced Marine Audio – Style Meets Performance
Designed to elevate any marine sound system, these tweeters expand the audio soundstage for clearer, more immersive highs. Branded trim rings add a stylish touch that integrates seamlessly with boat interiors.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- • Why did my M6-100CT tweeters suddenly cut out completely while I was turning up the volume?
The outboard passive crossovers feature an automatic, solid-state protection circuit that monitors current. If the signal begins to clip or pull dangerous power, it temporarily trips to save the silk dome. Lowering the volume for a few seconds resets the circuit automatically.
- • Can I bypass the bulky crossover boxes and wire these marine tweeters directly to my amplifier?
No. Bypassing the crossovers sends full-range low frequencies to the 1-inch voice coils, destroying them instantly. If you run an active configuration without the boxes, you must set an active electronic high-pass filter to a minimum of 3,200 Hz with a steep 24 dB/octave slope.
- • Why does the sound from my tweeters distort or get washed out when cruising at high speeds?
With a 91 dB efficiency rating, these component drivers need clean power to cut through wind and motor hum. Powering them off a weak, low-powered factory head unit causes the radio to clip when pushed hard. They perform best when paired with an aftermarket marine amplifier outputting 25 to 75 watts RMS.
- • Does the "GwGm" version include built-in Transflective™ RGB LED lighting rings?
No. The "GwGm" code indicates the Gloss White housing and Gray Metallic grille finish. Because these are standalone, deep-cup component tweeters rather than large-cone coaxial speakers, they do not feature or support JL Audio's integrated translucent LED light ring technology.
- • What is the difference between the "Classic" and "Sport" trim pieces included inside the box?
JL Audio packs both aesthetic variants together so you can customize your boat's styling. You receive a pair of mesh "Classic" trim rings and a pair of open-spoke "Sport" trim rings. Choose the look that matches your existing cabin speakers and snap them over the mounting cups.
- • My standard 2-inch hole saw is too tight for flush mounting. What size cutout do I need to cut?
A standard 2-inch hole is too small for the flush-mount fixtures. The precise **flush-mount cutout diameter required is exactly 2.125 inches (54 mm)**. You will need a 2-1/8 inch hole saw to cleanly mount the flush housings into your fiberglass panels.
