Rockford Fosgate (www.rockfordfosgate.com), the industry leader in high-performance audio systems, announced it will add to its line of Element-Ready mini tower cans for motorsports applications during its annual Product Showcase, held at The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino (Artist Ballroom) in Las Vegas, Nev. from Jan. 6-8, 2016. With 359 degree rotation and scheduled to ship in Q1 2016 with an MSRP of $499.99, the loaded 75/150 Watt (RMS/Peak), 4-ohm RM1652W-MB is available in stylish black with luxury grille is the perfect choice for off-road vehicles, including the Polaris® RZR Side-by-Side.

“The outdoor environment can be devastating on audio gear,” explained Jake Braaten, Rockford’s V.P. of Product Development & Engineering. “We’ve taken extreme measures to ensure optimum performance of our new Prime Series RM1652W-MB full-range, element-ready speaker enclosure. This true element-ready speaker has been loaded into a sealed, UV inhibitor infused, high density poly-ethylene enclosure which features an automotive grade paint and clear coat finish. The speaker features a 6.5-inch woofer and 1-inch grill mounted tweeter in its own high density poly-ethylene enclosure and protected by a luxury style grille. The RM1652W-MB is the ideal speaker enclosure for both marine and motorsports applications where traditional speaker mounts are not appropriate or possible. The 359 degree rotation is also perfect for aiming your music in virtually any direction while moving on the trail, or parked alongside the campfire.”

The RM1652W-MB speaker system comes with a surface mount bracket and all hardware is chrome plated or stainless steel. Security Torx hardware prevents theft while an included safety lanyard protects from loss or damage in the event the set screw assembly loosens over time. An optional tubular style mounting clamp assembly is also available (PM-CL2B) and can accommodate tube sizes from 1-inch to 2-inches. Both surface and tubular clamp mounting configurations allow the speaker to rotate up to 359 degrees.

The 75/150 Watt (RMS/Peak), 4-ohm Rockford Fosgate Prime Series RM1652B is a 2-way component system with a coaxially integrated tweeter featuring marine grade weather proofing technologies. It includes True Marine Grade compliance, 100 percent UV stable ASA injection molded plastic parts, injection molded mineral filled polypropylene cone body with UV inhibitors, UV and salt fog resistant santoprene surround, ultra-flexible fully insulated silicone lead wire, corrosion resistant quick disconnect speaker terminals, and moisture, tear and fatigue resistant Aramid fiber spider. It is CEA-2013 compliant and Klippel verified.
