Hertz Marine HEX 6.5 M-W-O
The HEX 6.5 M-W-O is a 6.5-inch coaxial speaker built and tested for real marine environments. The Marine Total White grille suits boat interiors and decks, and the compact mounting depth of 60.5 mm (2.38 in) — 85 mm (3.35 in) overall — makes it well suited to space-limited installations. Certified with the Hertz Pure Marine stamp, it meets IP65, ASTM-D4329 UV and ASTM-B117 salt fog standards for long-term reliability in the elements.
The high-efficiency tweeter, optimised through FEM simulation, delivers strong off-axis performance suited to in-boat listening. The sound-transparent mesh grille uses a twist-and-lock system for secure, clean fitment. The woofer uses a 25 mm (1") voice coil tuned for infinite baffle applications, and the sealed built-in crossover includes a resettable tweeter protection circuit. Nickel-plated corrosion-resistant terminals and silicone-insulated leads complete the marine-grade build.

About the Hertz HEX 6.5 M-W-O
From our tech experts at CEN
Marine-grade HEX series 6.5 inch coaxial speakers handling 50w RMS, built with UV-stable materials and corrosion-resistant hardware for life in sun, salt and spray.
Who it suits
Boats, ribs and open builds, and campers with an outdoor listening area. Anything mounted where rain reaches it should be marine-rated, whatever the vehicle.
Our tech experts advise
In a marine install the wiring decides longevity: tinned cable, sealed joints and a properly fused feed. Mounting position affects the sound more than the speaker choice, because there are no cabin walls to help you. get in touch and we will talk through mounting, wiring and power for your boat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes marine speakers different from car speakers?
A: Marine speakers are built with UV-stable, water-resistant cones, grilles and hardware designed for open-air and wet environments. They are the right choice for boats, jet skis, hot tubs and outdoor installs.
Q: Are these speakers fully waterproof?
A: Marine speakers are water-resistant to marine ratings rather than submersible. The IP rating, where provided, is listed in the Specification tab.
Q: Do I need a marine amplifier as well?
A: For best results, yes. Marine amplifiers carry conformal-coated boards that resist moisture and salt air. Match the amplifier to the RMS rating in the Specification tab as you would with any system.
Q: Will these work outside of marine use?
A: Yes. Marine speakers are popular for motorcycles, quads, hot tubs, garden bars and anywhere the weather reaches. Their durability makes them a strong outdoor choice.
Q: What power does the HEX 6.5 M-W-O handle?
A: 50W RMS continuous and 100W peak, at 4 ohms.
Q: What mounting depth does the HEX 6.5 M-W-O need?
A: It is a 6.5 inch (165 mm) speaker with a mounting depth of 60.5 mm (2.38 in) and an overall depth of 85 mm (3.35 in).
Q: Does the HEX 6.5 M-W-O have a built-in crossover?
A: Yes. It has a sealed built-in crossover with a resettable solid-state tweeter protection circuit.
