Alpine SPS-M601W
S Series Marine 6" 2-Way Coaxial Speaker – 110 Watts Peak Power – White Grille
Upgrade your marine audio system with the Alpine SPS-M601W S Series Marine 6" 2-Way Coaxial Speakers. Built specifically for use in boats and other marine environments, these speakers combine durable construction with efficient sound reproduction to deliver clear, powerful audio on the water.
The SPS-M601W features a 6.5-inch-class Poly-Mica woofer and an integrated 7/8-inch titanium/PEI balanced-dome tweeter. With 35 watts RMS and 110 watts peak power handling per speaker, the system is designed to provide strong output from both factory and aftermarket marine audio systems.
Built for Marine Environments
Marine audio equipment must withstand conditions that ordinary car speakers are not designed to handle. The SPS-M601W features an IPX5 water-resistant design to help protect the speaker from water exposure.
The speaker is also designed to resist the effects of ultraviolet exposure, salt spray, and fog, making it suitable for demanding marine installations where moisture and sunlight are constant concerns.
Poly-Mica Woofer
The SPS-M601W uses a Poly-Mica woofer cone designed to provide a combination of rigidity, responsiveness, and durability.
The woofer is responsible for reproducing the majority of the system's midbass and midrange frequencies, helping provide vocals, instruments, and music with a full and balanced presentation.
A durable rubber surround allows the woofer to move smoothly while helping protect the driver from the harsh marine environment.
Titanium/PEI Balanced-Dome Tweeter
A 7/8-inch titanium/PEI balanced-dome tweeter is integrated into the woofer assembly. The tweeter extends high-frequency reproduction to provide additional clarity and detail.
Its coaxial configuration allows the woofer and tweeter to operate from the same mounting location, simplifying installation while providing full-range sound.
110 Watts Peak Power Handling
The SPS-M601W is rated for 35 watts RMS and 110 watts peak power per speaker.
The 35-watt RMS rating represents the speaker's continuous power-handling capability, while the 110-watt peak rating provides additional headroom for short musical peaks and dynamic passages.
With a 4-ohm nominal impedance, the SPS-M601W is compatible with a wide range of marine head units and amplifiers.
89dB Sensitivity
The speaker's 89dB sensitivity allows it to produce strong output without requiring excessive amplifier power.
This makes the SPS-M601W a good choice for systems that use factory or built-in marine receivers, while its power handling also allows it to be paired with an external amplifier for additional volume and control.
50Hz–20kHz Frequency Response
The SPS-M601W provides a specified frequency response of 50Hz–20kHz.
The Poly-Mica woofer handles the lower and midrange frequencies while the integrated titanium/PEI tweeter reproduces the upper frequencies, providing balanced full-range playback for music, radio, and other audio content.
Water and UV Protection
The SPS-M601W is engineered with multiple forms of environmental protection. Its IPX5 rating provides resistance to water projected from any direction.
The white grille is designed for ultraviolet resistance and is tested according to ASTM D4329. The speaker is also designed to resist salt spray and fog exposure according to ASTM B117, helping it withstand the corrosive conditions associated with marine use.
High-Temperature ABS Frame
The speaker uses a high-temperature ABS frame that provides a durable mounting structure while helping withstand heat and environmental exposure.
The robust frame is designed to maintain the speaker's structural integrity during everyday marine use and vibration.
White UV-Resistant Grille
The SPS-M601W includes a white ultra-UV-resistant Centrex® 813 grille.
The white finish complements many boat interiors and exterior installations while the UV-resistant construction helps the grille retain its appearance when exposed to prolonged sunlight.
Built-In Tweeter Protection
Alpine incorporates built-in protection for the tweeter to help safeguard the high-frequency driver during operation.
This integrated design keeps installation straightforward without requiring a separate external protection component.
Marine Audio Upgrade
The SPS-M601W provides an effective way to upgrade a boat's existing audio system without sacrificing the durability required for marine environments.
Its combination of a Poly-Mica woofer, titanium/PEI tweeter, 89dB sensitivity, and 35-watt RMS rating provides an efficient balance of sound quality and output.
Easy Integration
The SPS-M601W is designed for installation in compatible marine speaker locations with a 5-inch mounting diameter and approximately 2-27/32-inch mounting depth.
The speakers are supplied as a pair with white grilles. Because mounting locations vary between boats, always verify the available cutout size and mounting depth before installation.
Alpine Performance on the Water
The Alpine SPS-M601W brings dependable Alpine audio performance to the marine environment. Its weather-resistant construction, IPX5 water resistance, UV-resistant grille, salt and fog resistance, and efficient 2-way coaxial design make it a strong choice for boat audio upgrades.
Whether you're replacing factory marine speakers or building a new marine audio system, the SPS-M601W provides clear, efficient sound in a durable white-grille package.
