Hertz HTX 8 M-FL-TW HTX 8" 100W RMS 4-Ohm Marine Tower Coaxial Speaker with RGB LED Lighting, Flat Mount, Total White, Each (78049011)

The Hertz HTX 8 M-FL-TW is an individually sold 8-inch marine tower speaker for open-air boat audio. Its flat mount installation design and total white styling are tailored to the tower/arch mounting configuration, while integrated RGB illumination brings coordinated lighting to the speaker enclosure. Its coaxial driver design provides a wide-band marine audio solution in a sealed tower enclosure.

Key Features

• Sold individually as one tower speaker, not a pair.
• Continuous power handling: 100W RMS; peak power handling: 200W.
• 4-ohm impedance for appropriately rated marine amplifiers.
• Integrated multicolor RGB LED lighting; compatible controller selected separately.
• IP65 water-jet resistance, ASTM D4329 UV testing and ASTM B117 salt-spray testing.
• Adjustable rear/logo orientation helps maintain proper appearance at different mounting angles.
• Flat-mount tower version intended for a compatible structural surface, rather than the factory clamp-mount version.
• Hertz HTX CLAMP.1 is a separately available optional accessory if a supported tube mounting approach is required.
• Coaxial two-way speaker with 32mm woofer voice coil and neodymium tweeter.
• Sealed built-in crossover and protective marine enclosure.

Installation Considerations

• Connect to a marine amplifier with a stable 4-ohm output and continuous power appropriate for the speaker.
• Use marine-grade electrical connectors and protect audio/RGB wiring from tower movement, vibration and abrasion.
• Confirm overhead clearance, structural load rating, mounting fasteners and torque before operating the vessel.
• Feed RGB lighting through a compatible fused 12V control circuit as documented by Hertz.
• Install on a structurally suitable flat mounting area; do not assume a clamp is included in a flat-mount SKU.
