GME GS320W 60W IP54 Marine Box Speakers White

GME's Smallest Marine Box Speakers 2×60W, IP54, ASTM Salt Spray and UV Compliant, 4Ω, White

Product Overview

The GME GS320W is a pair of compact 60W marine box speakers in white GME's smallest box-style marine speaker at 109mm × 96mm. Delivering 60 watts per speaker, the GS320W is engineered for the harsh marine environment, with IP54 water ingress protection and compliance with ASTM B117-03 salt spray (fog) and ASTM G154 UV exposure testing standards.

The 4Ω impedance is compatible with most marine amplifiers and stereo head units. The compact dimensions allow installation in tight spaces on smaller vessels where standard marine speakers would not fit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does IP54 mean for marine speakers?

IP54 indicates the speakers are rated against both dust and water ingress — the "5" means protected against dust (not completely dust-tight, but no harmful ingress), and the "4" means protected against water splash from any direction. This rating is appropriate for helm, cockpit, and cabin locations that receive spray and splash but are not directly submerged. It is suitable for most recreational marine applications above the waterline.

What are the ASTM B117-03 and ASTM G154 standards?

ASTM B117-03 is the American Society for Testing and Materials standard for salt spray (fog) testing — a standardised method for assessing corrosion resistance of materials and coatings in a saline environment. ASTM G154 is the equivalent standard for UV exposure testing, evaluating how materials respond to long-term ultraviolet light. Compliance with both standards confirms the GS320W's enclosure, grille, and materials are engineered for the corrosive and UV-intensive marine environment.

What power amplifier or head unit do I need for the GS320W?

The GS320W speakers are 4Ω impedance. Most marine stereo head units (including the GME GR350BTW/GR350BTB) and marine amplifiers are rated for 4Ω loads. Confirm that the total power output of the amplifier channel is appropriate for 60W per speaker — a head unit or amplifier rated at 40–60W RMS per channel is a suitable match.

How compact are the GS320W speakers and where can they be installed?

At 109mm × 96mm, the GS320W is GME's smallest marine box speaker — approximately the size of a large smartphone. This allows installation on bulkheads, under-helm panels, in cabin side walls, and other locations where a standard 4" or 5" round speaker would not fit. The box enclosure design also eliminates the need to cut a round speaker hole, making installation easier on fibreglass surfaces.

Is there a black version of the GS320W?

A black version is not mentioned in the available supplier data. Confirm with GME or your supplier whether a black version exists.
