Built to Power Serious Marine Audio Systems
Most factory marine audio systems simply do not have enough power.
Once your boat is moving, wind noise and engine vibration quickly overpower weak amplifiers and underpowered speakers. The result is distortion, poor bass response, and sound that disappears at speed.
The Wet Sounds HTM-8 is engineered to solve that problem with powerful full-range Class-D performance built specifically for marine environments.
Designed for wake boats, pontoons, center consoles, and premium marine audio systems, the HTM-8 delivers clean, powerful output across all eight channels while maintaining compact installation flexibility.
Massive 8-Channel Marine Power
The HTM-8 delivers:
- 85W x 8 RMS @ 4 ohms
- 150W x 8 RMS @ 2 ohms
- 300W x 4 bridged @ 4 ohms
This gives you the flexibility to run:
- Multiple speaker zones
- Tower speakers
- Interior speakers
- Full marine audio systems
- Multi-zone wake boat setups
without needing multiple amplifiers.
The HTM Series was designed specifically for extreme marine audio applications.
Full-Range Class-D Efficiency
The HTM-8 uses advanced Class-D technology for:
- Higher efficiency
- Reduced heat
- Strong output
- Compact chassis size
- Better electrical system management
This is especially important on boats where charging systems and installation space are limited.
Built for Marine Conditions
The HTM-8 features IPX5 water resistance and marine-grade construction designed for:
- Moisture
- Heat
- UV exposure
- Vibration
- Harsh outdoor environments
Wet Sounds engineered the HTM Series specifically for marine and powersports durability.
