Ryan929 Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 I was browsing crescendos site and noticed that the marine grade pwx's were 50% off. Although i know even the PWX series is weatherproof as well, as long as the back is sealed off. So my question is, is there any difference between the two (aside from color)? Is there any reason not to buy the marine speakers for 1/2 off? Both have the exact same description..

Karkov Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 I didn't know the originals were some what water resistant since you can see through the cone @ the "M" wow rated at 200 watts, seems like a lot, bet the scream I don't know anyone with the white M series but I am curious as well. 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.

Massivespl Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 They both have open backs. The pwx is 3" coils and the pwxm is 2.5" coil c-pillar flat wall 157.11db on music 2 crossfire 8k 4 NSV3 18s 4 crescendo 10s 4 Rockford pro 6.5s Quad excessive amperage 350alts 4 juicebox 3100s
Ryan929 Posted November 18, 2015 Author Report Posted November 18, 2015 SO then I guess the coil size and the fact that the marine speakers have the UV rubber composite weatherproof surround and nomex treated spider, would be the only real difference.. I blew a couple of my pwx 8s.. So not sure how the white ones would look if i replaced all of my 8s with the marine..

audiofanaticz Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 I personally think the white will look like crap in a door with dark colors, unless you have other white accents through out the cab of the vehicle otherwise it would just clash.

Me being dumb, was playing with my amp and accidentally moves the switch from hpf to lpf with volume on max.......................... Was trying to go in the middle to full but clicked it over one too many times. It was instant and painful, felt like an idiot lol
