Elevate Your Boat’s Audio with JL Audio M3-770X-C-Gw 7.7” Marine Speakers
Introduction
The JL Audio M3-770X-C-Gw 7.7-inch marine coaxial speakers are designed to deliver rich, full-range sound that cuts through the wind and waves with clarity and depth. Whether you're anchored at a sandbar or cruising full throttle, these speakers offer stunning audio quality backed by durable construction made for life on the water. With their crisp white classic grilles and premium build quality, the M3-770X-C-Gw speakers bring style and sonic excellence to any boat.
Larger Size for Louder, Deeper Sound
Unlike standard marine speakers, the M3-770X-C-Gw features an oversized 7.7-inch woofer, which allows for greater cone area and excursion. This design translates into louder output and improved bass response, ensuring your music is full and vibrant even in open-air settings. Whether you're listening to mellow yacht rock or heavy-hitting EDM, these speakers deliver the punch and clarity needed for any playlist on the water.
Precision-Engineered 2-Way Design
Each M3-770X-C-Gw speaker includes a 0.75-inch silk dome tweeter mounted at the center of the woofer cone, creating a true 2-way coaxial configuration. This setup provides accurate high-frequency detail with smooth roll-off, avoiding harshness and fatigue. The result is a well-balanced soundstage with crisp highs, clear mids, and powerful lows — exactly what you'd expect from JL Audio's marine engineering team.
Built for Harsh Marine Conditions
Every component of the M3-770X-C-Gw is carefully chosen to resist the elements. The UV-resistant classic white grille, polypropylene cone, and synthetic rubber surround are all designed to withstand long-term exposure to saltwater, sun, and moisture. JL Audio uses marine-grade materials and assembly techniques tested to IP65 standards, ensuring that these speakers keep sounding great even in the harshest environments.
High-Efficiency Performance for Any System
These speakers are optimized for high output with modest power, making them a great match for both factory and aftermarket marine systems. With 70 watts RMS power handling and 4-ohm impedance, they perform beautifully whether powered by a head unit or a dedicated marine amplifier. Even at lower power levels, the M3-770X-C-Gw speakers maintain their clarity and bass depth, making them ideal for a variety of setups.
Timeless Classic Grille Design
Aesthetically, the Classic White Grille (C-Gw) offers a clean, understated look that complements virtually any boat design. It blends seamlessly with traditional and modern marine interiors, making your upgrade look as good as it sounds. The grille is not just about looks — it’s rugged and UV-stable, built to last season after season.
