I just installed two pair of these speakers in my 2007 Bayliner 175 (I/O). Two at the stern, where the original speakers were mounted and two on the bow, in to new openings. I replaced a set of Memphis Audio Marine 6.5" speakers - I don't recall the price of the Memphis, but suffice to say, significantly more than these Pyle Dual 6.5s. I have a Sony head unit (no external amplification) Sony CDXM60UI Marine CD Receiver MP3/WMA/AAC Player with USB Wire for iPod and USB Devices (White/Silver) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)
I don't have a decibel meter but Boating Magazine (2-Aug-2012) measured nearly 100decible at WOT (wide open throttle). I could easily hear these speakers today on the lake running WOT (about 44mph). Sound reproduction is mostly mid range although these are "2-way" speakers. The bass is soft but discernible. There was no distortion playing songs from my iPhone (i.e. Coldplay, Grateful Dead, Buffet, etc.). The Memphis sounded better at low volume but these play much louder than the Memphis ever did.
Pyle says these are water proof - the construction appears to be quite hefty (the magnet is not as heavy as some) and solid. Easy to install and hook up. Bottom line, for less than $40 for a set of speakers, I wasn't expecting much - what I got was definitely my monies worth and then some! We'll see if they continue to perform throughout this summer and summers to come.
I put these in some 6" PVC tube to mount on my jeep's roll bars, they are loud and clear enough to run the top down on the highway and still enjoy your music (I run somewhat loud A/T tires also). The biggest reason I purchased them was due to them being waterproof and I've run these same speakers on ATVs crossing creeks, covering them in mud, and hosing them off at the day's end with 0 issues yet. Just keep in mind these are not high end, but work well and you will not be to upset if they get hit out on the trails etc.
I installed these on my 2015 Keystone outback travel trailer. The speakers are not recessed in the side of the trailer but sit in plastic housings that “bump” out the speaker. The inside diameter of the housing is only 6” and the depth is 1.75”. After several other orders that I had to return I ended up with these and the fit perfectly in the housings and sound 100x better Han the cheap OEM ones Keystone used. Installation was simple, had them installed in less than 20 minutes.
Perfect replacement for 2009 Jayco JayFlight G2 26BHS outdoor speakers. Spade connectors required slight modification. Make sure to purchase butyl tape for the installation.
Easy installation but NOT a exact fit. Was able to make it fit without any additional drilling. Time will tell product quality. Great price and good look!

They’re designed with rust-proof mesh covers for quality protection. The PLMR60W is a pair of 150-watt, 6.5” two-way, full-range speaker suitable for marine use. These white speakers are equipped with a polypropylene cone with cloth surround and 1” aluminum voice coil for accurate sound reproduction. The molded ABS plastic basket keeps your sound distortion-free. Package includes mounting hardware and wires.
They are cheap speakers they play music they are just the speaker they don't have the tweeter built into them (not a 2 way or 3 way speaker) I have mine hooked up to a 400x4 Pyle Bluetooth amp they haven't burn up yet only bad I see in the 17 dollar speaker is that they have kind of a mono tone to them but like I said no tweeters
I purchased these to replace the Jensen's on the exterior of my small pull behind camper. I had no idea how they would sound out in open.
Wow! They are significantly better sounding than the Jesens. They hold the base beautifully. Even on low volume, they deliver comfortable, rich, sound. I'm quite happy with them, and feel they were a bargain.
My 92 model bass boat had factory speakers in it that sounded decent. I purchased these and replaced my old ones. These sound 10X better. Clear and loud as one would want on a boat. Excellent product.
If u want decent sounding FGL or 5 man acoustical jam and cant justify spending a fortune, these speakers are great. If u are a rap or techno fan, these wont shake your tackle box. Keep in mind, if u are connecting to an old analog radio, garbage in equals garbage out. I also replaced my radio. The factory holes in my boat were 5 inches by 1 3/4 deep. These fit perfect with no mods.
Replaced some real older clarion speakers and sounds pretty good. The sound system isn't the loudest or most high end but for the price of these they're great. I ended up adding the Pyle marine amp inline and it really increased the volume/quality.
