Kicker offers theirs with a dual swivel clamp that allows for 359-degrees of rotation while Wet Sounds REV 10's are available in fixed clamp, swivel clamp, or with OE tower adapters in order to bolt directly to your factory speaker mounts. Thesetower speakers are designed to ensure that the person you are towing hears the music crystal clear at distances up to 100 yards. The Kicker horn loaded tower speakers and the Wet Sounds REV 10 and REV410 are going to be LOUD. The 8.8" JL Audio speakers are not horn loaded and they will not give you the sheer volume and distance of horn loaded speakers, but they will provide you with a better overall sound quality compared to the horn tweeter versions. If you have the horns, you want to make sure you are giving them enough power to get the volume and distance you are paying for.Ĩ.8" and Larger Marine Wake Tower SpeakersThe 8.8" and larger marine tower speakers are for those that want maximum volume and distance, and are willing to pay up in order to be loud!
