Dayton Audio CE Series CE65W-8 2-1/2" Shielded Extended Range Driver 8 Ohms

My speaker blew on my Aomais speaker. Bought these speakers to replace the old ones. They are a little taller then the ones came with the speaker and a little smaller for the hole but I positioned them the best I can and they worked just fine. Sound better then the old ones also. I don’t intend on taking the speaker near the water so I think it will be fine.

This is as close to the OEM speaker I have found. As mentioned in previous reviews some modifications must be done to two of the mounting tabs to secure the speaker with all four screws. I replace both speakers because there seemed to be a difference in the reflex between the original cone and the Dayton Audio CE Series CE65W-8 2-1/2 speaker. You can't go wrong with these speakers.Only one downfall: they're shipped in a flimsy box and then placed in an Amazon bubble envelope. One speaker arrived out of the box, but still in the envelope looking like it had been thrown up against a wall. Sent it back, crossed my fingers an the replacement arrived the next day in a damaged packaging. Even though the package was damaged was able to use the speaker.This is a shipping problem, not a manufacturing problem.

I wasn't a huge Dayton audio fan. I thought they were overpriced and I still hate the fact that parts express doesn't do free shipping and prime. Don't normally do business unless they have prime. I ordered these anyway. Ok they are a top notch seller. Everything was packaged so perfect, documentation for everything. Had an issue with something and returned no problem. These speakers are rated at 7 watts. If you feed then clean power they can handle easily 20-50 watts. With the extended range you can pair with a woofer and that's all you need. They have an absolutely crystal clear sound and separation. Horns sound encredible. I'm going to in the future do an array setup which I can imagine will sound so good. These are worth every penny. I would say they rival some of the best speakers at far higher price.

I saw this speaker recommended on a Facebook page to replace the speaker for the SP-10. It took about 15 minutes to replace the crappy speaker that comes within the SP-10 and didn't even require drilling. Tabs are clearly marked for positive and negative. Sounds great with a deeper clearer sound being emitted. Packaging that it came in was very odd. sort of a large envelope with the speaker bouncing around inside but it seems tough enough to withstand that sort of punishment. KC5LL

It will replace the speaker, but it will not fit the same or allow your speaker to be water resistant anymore. The screw holes are just a hair off so you'll have to screw in at an angle. The seal is a thin piece of foam that does not cover the contact point or offer waterproof ability. Sound quality isn't as deep as stock.

This driver failed in less than a month. Now when bass hits it gives off a deafening sound.

I as a Women was able to change this speaker myself Yehh Sound is excellent I would suggest buying 2 because just as sure as you change one side the other side will need changing Too! Very happy with price I used the item to replace my JBL EXTREME1 Thanks

I purchased these to replace my loudspeakers in my JBL Extreme 1. Although these say they’re a replacement, they are by no means an exact replacement. The size is similar and the do fit and plug in, however they do not sound the same as the factory, are not the same size, and needed modifications to be installed properly. I thought my speakers were blown and had purchased these because they were inexpensive, only to find out the factory speakers were fine… another story…Anyway, the can work as a retrofit with the understanding they aren’t perfect, but they work ok.
