Bowers & Wilkins

Bowers & Wilkins Marine 8 Versatile Two-Way Marine Speaker (Pair)

8" two-way marine speaker • 1" soft dome tweeter • 8" polypropylene bass/midrange driver • IP66 rated when properly installed • shallow 93mm mounting depth • black finish

Meet the Marine 8

The Bowers & Wilkins Marine 8 Versatile Two-Way Marine Speaker (Pair) is designed for demanding marine and outdoor installations where weather resistance matters just as much as sound quality. Using an 8" polypropylene bass/midrange driver and a 1" soft dome tweeter, it brings Bowers & Wilkins’ high-performance loudspeaker thinking into a rugged, shallow-mount form factor built for boats, wet environments, and other exposed installations.

IP66 Rated 1" Soft Dome Tweeter 8" Poly Woofer Shallow-Mount Design Marine-Grade Hardware Black Finish

Installation note: this is the larger Marine-series model, offering fuller bass and greater output while still fitting into a relatively shallow mounting depth.

Highlights & Benefits

  • Built for harsh environments — IP66 weather resistance helps the speaker withstand demanding marine and outdoor conditions when properly installed.
  • Serious full-range performance — the larger 8" bass/midrange driver gives the Marine 8 greater low-frequency weight and output than smaller marine speaker options.
  • Shallow installation depth — at only 93mm deep behind the mounting surface, it is easier to integrate into tight installation spaces.
  • Marine-ready hardware — the metal grille and fasteners are designed for rugged, corrosion-conscious use in challenging environments.
  • Bowers & Wilkins voicing — the speaker is engineered to bring more refined sound quality to marine applications than many purely utility-focused alternatives.
  • Premium marine audio solution — the Bowers & Wilkins Marine 8 Versatile Two-Way Marine Speaker (Pair) is ideal for installations that need durability, strong output, and a more upscale sound character.

Technology & Design

Two-way driver architecture — the Marine 8 uses a dedicated 25mm soft dome tweeter alongside a 200mm polypropylene cone bass/midrange driver to deliver broad frequency coverage and stronger overall balance.

Marine-hardened construction — Bowers & Wilkins specifies a marine-grade stainless steel grille and screws, plus a non-corroding rigid polymer chassis for better long-term durability.

Protected tweeter structure — the tweeter dome includes rear support designed to help prevent permanent deformation when exposed to demanding wash-down conditions.

Shallow-mount flexibility — despite being the larger Marine-series model, the speaker still fits into a 93mm mounting depth, making it easier to use where available installation depth is limited.

In a properly executed system, the Bowers & Wilkins Marine 8 Versatile Two-Way Marine Speaker (Pair) delivers more scale, fuller bass, and a more polished listening experience than many conventional marine speakers.
