The Wet Sounds XS series of subwoofers is a line of advanced low frequency transducers.  
These subwoofers use advanced materials throughout such as our exclusive rubber spider and 
powder coated cast aluminum frames.  Wet Sounds has developed a rubber spider for the XS 
series of subwoofers.  Rubber is used for the spider as most marine speakers use cloth that will 
deteriorate over time. The XS series speakers are built to last in the harshest environments.  The 
XS subwoofers utilize a cast aluminum frame that is powder coated to provide a solid non flexing 
mount.  Advanced acoustical technologies like perimeter venting, high temperature voice coils 
and gold plated binding posts also help to make the XS series one of the most advance marine 
subwoofers on the market.
