Wet Sounds ZERO Series - ZERO 8 XY-W White 8" Neodymium Marine Speakers with Horn-Loaded Titanium Tweeters, Pair

Product details

Wet Sounds ZERO Series 8 XY-W extends the ZERO Series concept into an 8" format, offering a high-output coaxial option for larger cutouts and more demanding marine systems. Inspired by the performance of Wet Sounds REV tower speakers and adapted for more confined mounting spaces, ZERO Series 8 XY-W blends shallow-mount flexibility with yacht-style aesthetics.

Shallow-Mount 8" Coaxials for Modern Marine Installs

ZERO Series 8 XY-W is designed for boats that can benefit from an 8" speaker but still have limited depth behind the panel. With a mounting depth of 3.32" (84.32mm), these coaxials aim to fit into tighter factory or custom locations while delivering full-range marine performance.

• 8" shallow-mount marine coaxial speakers
• Mounting depth: 3.32" (84.32mm)
• Hole cutout: 7.36" (186.94mm)

Nylas™ Composite Frame & PMGS Composite Cone

At the core of ZERO Series 8 XY-W is a high-strength Nylas™ composite frame, a nylon and fiberglass blend chosen for stability and strength, paired with a rigid PMGS composite cone. The suspension system is designed around a TPR surround and a reinforced Nomex aramid spider.

• High-strength Nylas (nylon/fiberglass) composite frame
• Rigid PMGS composite cone
• TPR surround suspension system
• Reinforced Nomex aramid spider
• Incorporated motor heatsink

Horn-Loaded Titanium Tweeter & Oversized Neo Motor

For high-frequency performance, ZERO Series 8 XY-W uses a 1" horn-loaded titanium dome tweeter driven by an oversized neodymium motor. The system is specified at 150W RMS / 300W peak with a frequency response of 55Hz–20kHz and 91.5dB sensitivity at 1W/1m.

• 1" horn-loaded titanium dome tweeter
• Oversized neodymium motor for high power handling
• Frequency response: 55Hz – 20kHz
• Sensitivity: 91.5dB @ 1W/1m
• Power handling: 150W RMS / 300W peak at 4Ω

XY Yacht Grilles with Twist-Lock Mounting

ZERO Series 8 XY-W includes gloss white XY yacht grilles constructed from aluminum with a durable powder coat finish. The twist-lock design hides mounting hardware for a clean look, and the speakers can be used with or without the grille to suit OEM replacement or fully custom installations.

• Gloss white XY yacht grilles included
• Twist-lock grille hides mounting hardware
• Install with or without grille
• Aluminum grille with powder coat finish
• Diameter with grille: 8.96" (227.58mm)
