They provide a full-range upgrade for factory or aftermarket speaker locations where marine-grade durability is important. Each speaker combines a woofer and grille-integrated tweeter in one coaxial assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith 75 watts RMS and 300 watts peak power handling per speaker, the M1-65B is suited to properly matched marine or powersports amplification. Its 4-ohm nominal impedance works with common multi-channel amplifiers and compatible source-unit speaker outputs. The specified 38 Hz to 22 kHz frequency response supports broad full-range playback, while a concealed crossover divides frequencies between the woofer and tweeter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 1-inch LCP balanced-dome tweeter is integrated into the grille to reproduce high-frequency detail without requiring a separate tweeter mount.
