Wakeboard Towers UK

We had some viewers asking for wakeboard tower speaker dealers in Europe, so for all of you European viewers this post is for you.

Wakeboard Towers UK is a full service Tower and tower acessories shop in the United Kingdom: they stock many brands, and distribute to a large dealer network in the UK. There is a decent selection of wakeboard tower speakers: spekaer models include entry level all the way to pro audio HLCD tower speakers; the brands include Kicker, Monster Tower, and Wetsounds. Pricing seems to be reasonable, but Europeans would find better deals ordering online in the United States and having the package shipped into the UK: remember to ask the seller to ship the package as a gift with a $100.00 value, so you can avoid import taxes. They currently have free shipping on orders over 200 BP. Wakeboard tower speaker models include:

WetSounds Pro 80 Features:

The PRO 80 is a Wakeboard tower speaker design utilizing advanced and unique engineering technologies. It incorporates professional grade concepts and extensive acoustical engineering. The driver compliment in the PRO 80 is a single 8 inch Wet Sounds™ EFG™ driver and a concentrically mounted Wet Sounds™ HLCD (Horn Loaded Compression Driver). This is a proprietary design by Wet Sounds™ Inc. Known as a Pro-Axial™. With its accurate mid-bass reproduction and loud high frequency response this will certainly "Inspire Your Ride at 80 Feet and Beyond".

W-DET technology. W-DET is a wide dispersion enhanced throw technology. Unlike most conventional designs, by using the enhanced throw portion of this technology, the PRO 80 provides amazing volume and sound quality out to the rider and beyond. Wet Sounds™ takes this a step further by incorporating a wide dispersion design. Not only providing the volume and sound quality out to the rider, but providing a widely dispersed sound field that can be heard even while outside of the wake.

The driver compliment in the PRO 80 uses a single 8 inch Wet Sounds™ EFG™ driver and a coaxially mounted HLCD (Horn Loaded Compression Driver) per speaker. This is wet sounds proprietary “Pro-axial” technology. The 8 inch Pro-Axial™ is one of the most unique coaxial drivers ever developed. We used our proprietary cone material called EFG™, which is an epoxy fiberglass. Wet Sounds™ developed this cone material specifically for the PRO series of tower speakers. EFG™ is used because it is the optimum cone material that provides a light yet rigid cone, resulting in a quick transient response for tight bass, exceptional sound quality, and great resistance to water. Polyurethane is used for the surround to provide a weather resistant surround that will not rot or deteriorate like conventional foam surrounds and is more efficient than typical rubber surrounds. The high frequency driver is a wide dispersion HLCD (horn loaded compression driver)

Extensive crossover network. Wet Sounds™ developed an advanced crossover network for the PRO 80. Allowing for amazing output to the rider while maintaining exceptional sound quality.

The PRO 80 uses one Trick Connect™ Bracket per speaker. These Trick Connect Brackets are designed to give you the option to have speakers facing the rear for music while riding or to be faced forward when the boat is beached. Trick Connect also makes removing the speakers for storage quick and easy.

There are three pieces to the Trick Connect™ Bracket assembly. The tower clamp that attaches to the tower, the U bracket that is attached to the speaker and there are various sizes of rubber inserts to use depending on what size tower pipe you have. The Trick Connect 2™ Bracket is a 2 7/8 inch Chrome Plated Aluminum Clamp. The rubber inserts will fit the following towers. (1 5/8″, 1 3/4″, 2″, 2 1/4″, 2 1/2″, 3″)

Kicker KMT6 Tower Speakers Features:

Kicker engineers went straight to the ears of the Wakeboard world with it’s latest development – The KMT6 long-range tower system. With guys like Darin Shapiro and Greg Necrason on the Kicker team they didn’t have to look far for inspiration.

The result is a 2-way system consisting of four 16.5cm mid-bass woofers with two, 5.1 x 15.5cm long-throw horn style tweeters that absolutely pounds!

Each set up comes as 2 enclosures, shaped to fit beautifully on any Wakeboard tower. The anodised aluminium mounts will accommodate any tower up to 2.5″ in diameter so no need to sweat over installation.
