Refers to the size of the speaker measured in inches. Every vehicle has standard application sizes. Please use our vehicle fitment guide for your vehicle's specific speaker sizes if you do not know them.
The number of individual drivers in a car speaker. Speakers with 2 drivers are known as a 2-way, and 3 drivers are known as a 3-way. Component systems are often referred to as "separates" because the tweeter is not attached to the midwoofer (main speaker driver) and mounts separately in a location such as a door post. Component systems typically come with an external crossover so you can easily adjust the high and low frequencies sent to both the midwoofer and the tweeter. Center channel speakers are great for those looking to have surround sound in their vehicle.
The RMS power is the amount of power the speaker requires to operate safely and properly. RMS Power Handling refers to the amount of power a speaker can handle on a continuous basis. We recommend powering your speakers or subwoofer with 80%-120% of its recommended RMS rating. The RMS power handling specification is typically rated per speaker unless otherwise noted.
Peak power handling refers to the amount of power a speaker can handle during a brief musical burst. The RMS power range figure is a much more reliable rating for determining the speaker's power requirements. The Peak power handling specification is typically rated per speaker unless otherwise noted.
An efficiency or sensitivity rating tells you how effectively a speaker converts power into sound. The higher the number, the more efficient the speaker and the louder it will play with the same input power. An efficient speaker helps you maximize your available power. Most sensitivity ratings measure the speaker's output with 1 watt of input, 1 meter from the speaker. Some speakers' sensitivity is measured with 2.83 volts of input, instead of 1 watt.
Efficiency (1w/1m) is not an accurate indicator of a subwoofer's output capability and should not be used as a comparison to other speakers or subwoofers to determine which one is "louder".
The load value (in ohms) that the speakers present to the amplifier per voice coil - the amount of resistance to the current flow. This is a key specification as subs wired in parallel or low impedances can create problems with your amplifier and potentially void all warranties. We encourage you to ask our support department prior to purchase if you do not understand which impedance level will suit your application best.
This means that the subwoofer/speaker is designed to be installed in areas that do not have a lot of space. Shallow mount subwoofers are typically found under a seat or behind the seat in some trucks.
Shallow mount speakers will typically have a mounting depth of 2" or less, while shallow mount subwoofers will typically have a mounting depth of 3" or less.
Designs such as cone, dome, semi-dome, balanced dome, and whizzer are most popular. Cone tweeters are simple, efficient and typically are the most reasonably priced. Dome tweeters are used in most home speakers, and provide a smoother and more accurate sound. Semi-dome design is one with a dome placed inside a cone. A Balanced dome driver is a semi-dome with equal reproduction area given the cone and dome portions of the driver. A whizzer tweeter is a separate tweeter cone driven by the voice coil of the woofer.
Many brands group their products into series or lines of products to help customers know the level of quality (good, better, best for example). You can filter by series and the brand using our guided browsing.

Motorcycle speakers are specialized audio devices designed to provide high-quality sound while riding. They are built to withstand the vibrations and outdoor conditions that come with motorcycle travel, enhancing the riding experience by allowing riders to enjoy music, navigation prompts, and other audio content.
Installing motorcycle speakers involves securely mounting them to the motorcycle's frame, handlebars, or other suitable locations. Wiring them to the motorcycle's audio source and power supply is also necessary. Many speaker systems come with installation kits and instructions tailored to different motorcycle models, making the process easier.
Many motorcycle speakers are weatherproof or water-resistant, designed to handle exposure to rain, moisture, and other environmental factors. However, it's essential to check the product specifications and IPX ratings to ensure they can withstand the conditions you'll be riding in.
Motorcycle speakers can be connected to audio sources such as smartphones, MP3 players, or GPS devices using Bluetooth, AUX cables, or USB connections. Some models also feature built-in FM radios. Before purchasing, ensure the speakers are compatible with the audio sources you intend to use.
Properly installed motorcycle speakers should not interfere with your riding experience. Many models are designed to direct sound towards the rider for clear audio even at higher speeds. However, it's crucial to prioritize safety and avoid playing audio at volumes that could distract you from the road or mask important traffic sounds.
