JL Audio announced the M880-CCX 8.8-inch premium marine coaxial speaker system, offering a significant performance advantage over the previous 7.7-inch models, and a huge advantage over conventional 6.5 inch marine coaxials (at twice the cone area).
JL Audio also designed a bigger, more powerful silk dome tweeter just for this model, so high-frequencies sound just as good as the bass. A high-quality, 2-way crossover network is attached to the driver for ease of installation.
The bass is so impressive that the M880-CCX can be used without a subwoofer while still packing a serious low-frequency punch. When used with a subwoofer, they offer vastly better dynamics and mid-bass impact than smaller speakers.
