About the PowerBass XL-650
Six speakers = sweet sound
Six speakers = sweet sound
Whether your off-road adventures happen on mud or sand, you still want to rock out. The PowerBass XL-650 Bluetooth sound bar delivers all the sound you want with six speakers and 300 watts RMS of power. The rugged, water-tight extruded aluminum body can stand up to all sorts of punishment, and the no-nonsense styling will look terrific on your UTV, dune buggy, small boat, golf cart, or pretty much any other off-road vehicle.
Totally built for this
The XL-650 features conformal-coated circuitry, so it'll take plenty of abuse and still crank out the tunes. Two square polypropylene woofers, two 3" full-range speakers, along with two 1" Mylar soft dome tweeters are backed by a built-in DSP processor for powerful sound that won't turn into distortion when the going gets loud. PowerBass designed all these drivers to handle lots of power at high volume, so you can count on hearing your tunes the way they're supposed to sound. And you can control your sound using the backlit LED center control panel.
Choose your source
Keep your listening easy by pairing with the XL-650 via Bluetooth and stashing your smartphone. An included AUX input is handy for plugging in another audio source, and you can use the 2-volt preamp outputs to drive external components (like powered pod speakers or a powered sub) if you want to go big.
Mount it like a light bar
PowerBass includes a universal L-bracket mounting system for straightforward installation, but the optional XL-SBCLAMP roll bar clamp makes this sound bar even more versatile.

Amplified Powersports Soundbar: The PowerBass Xtreme XL-650 is an amplified powersports soundbar designed to provide high-fidelity sound in almost any terrain. The Soundbar is equipped with a total of six speakers and 300 watts of continuous power (600 watts peak).

The tweeters, woofers, and full-range drivers are powered by a 150 watt x 2 channel (RMS) amplifier with a built-in precision tuned DSP for optimum output with low distortion.
Rugged Design: The PowerBass Xtreme XL-650 features a heavy-duty, military-grade extruded aluminum water-tight housing that is able to withstand the harshest of environments. The soundbar's circuit board has been conformal coated with a layer of transparent material that protects the parts against moisture, dust and temperature extremes. In addition, stainless steel hardware is supplied to resist rust and corrosion.
All-Weather Use: The XL-650 carries an IPX6 waterproof rating for all-weather use.

You can control Volume, Pause, and Previous/Next Track functions from the soundbar. Only one Bluetooth source device can be paired and connected at a time.
