  • Great speakers, clear sound, not much bass
Style: Marine Certified
Great speakers! I bought these for our fifth wheel because the original ones sounded like tin cans, and I'm glad I spent the money and went with Polk. They fit perfectly in the existing mounting brackets. All I had to do was connect the wires and screw them in. 10 minute job. The audio is crisp, clear, and much louder than the originals. However, don’t expect much bass. They won't match the power and bass of an external speaker like the JBL PartyBox, but they can definitely get loud. ... show more

  • Great Exterior Speaker upgrade on a 2015 Lance 2295 Travel Trailer
Style: Marine Certified
Replacing PQN ECO 50 (5" Dia) Waterproof speakers on the exterior of a 2015 Lance 2295 Travel Trailer, which only has 1 1/8" speaker pocket depth. I added the DCO 1" Universal Spacers for 5.25" to 6" speakers, as listed by Amazon as frequently purchased together with these Polk speakers. These spacers' mounting holes matched the existing PQN Speaker holes on the side of the Lance travel trailer and the predrilled holes in the spacers matched the Polk speaker and grill holes perfectly. I used Gorilla Glue's clear silicon caulking during installation to seal the spacer and speaker assembly to the side of the Lance. The spacers and speakers installed easily and look good. If you use the PQN Speaker holes for mounting the spacer and predrilled spacer holes for mounting the speakers, the speaker grill will be slightly angled. If this bothers you then you'll have to drill new mounting holes. The speakers once turned on and letting warm up for a few minutes, provided sharp sound at midrange and above. The bass was also sharp, but just about what you would expect from a 5.25" speaker. Pretty good bass, but it is not the speakers' strong suit. Build quality is impressive especially when compared to the PQN speakers that are used by the manufacturer because the speakers use low wattage and are light weight. The Polk speakers have some weight, due to the good sized magnet. I'm happy with the upgrade and would recommend these speakers. ... show more

  • Amazing!
Style: Marine Certified
I just put these in my TJ Wrangler. What a massive upgrade! They replaced some Sony 4x6s, and they are WAY LOUDER, and WAY BETTER SOUND. The treble is brighter, and more clear. The mid-range is amazing too. I even get some bass coming out of the front speakers now too. If you have a TJ Wrangler, don't hesitate on this upgrade. ... show more

  • Worth the money
Style: Marine Certified
I installed these on my motorcycle, and hooked them to my Rockford Fosgate PBR 300X2 amplifier. I went through two sets of speakers with this amp, blew out a speaker on each set. One of those sets was the younger brother of the DB522, the DB521. I realized I needed something that could handle a larger sustained RMS wattage. The DB522 has over twice the RMS wattage and over twice the peak power, so I splurged for them. However, when I put them into the bike, they didn't sound near as good. I was so frustrated I was going to sell them and try a different set of speakers. But after doing some research, I really took some time tuning all the various settings on the amp in order to get the best sound out of the speakers, and now they sound great. I love them, and can play my music loud, which is important when trying to hear over the wind. ... show more

  • Polk Audio DB522 DB+ Series Speakers Are a Fantastic Upgrade for My Jeep TJ Front Speakers!
Style: Marine Certified
I recently installed the Polk Audio DB522 DB+ Series 5-1/4" Coaxial Speakers in my 2002 Jeep Wrangler TJ front speakers, and they’ve absolutely transformed my audio experience! These speakers fit perfectly in the factory location with 3d printed adaptor, and installation was a breeze, taking about 30 minutes. The sound quality is outstanding—crisp highs, rich mids, and surprisingly punchy bass for their size, thanks to the 300W peak power and marine-certified design. Whether I’m blasting rock on the highway or hip-hop on off-road trails, the audio stays clear and distortion-free, even with the top down. The IP65 waterproof rating ensures they handle dust and splashes like champs, perfect for my rugged adventures. Durable, stylish, and phenomenal sound—highly recommend these Polk Audio speakers for any Jeep TJ owner looking to upgrade their sound system! ... show more
