I have a cb radio with a pa and i was wondering if this would work as a speaker? Also, is this water-proof?

No, this is a just a siren, it takes 6V 12V and must have a built in circuit to make its noise. I would check parts-express.com for PA equipment. They have very reasonable prices and good equipment.

I think you'll definitely be able to hear the speakers even on a highway. It is fairly compact, the amp is very small. The only thing you'll have to think about is finding a waterproof enclosure for everything. They are marine speakers but I think that mostly protects them from splashing, not submersion. So I think the best you can protect them from rain fall the better.

The speakers are very water resistant . The amp is supposed to be... but I never risked that

I would get an amp designed for wet conditions. This one is not waterproof.

I haven't used this on a boat, but I can tell you it has substantial sound. Theirs 2 speakers up front and what seems like a mini sub on the top. You might want something bigger though if your wanting it to entertain the whole boat. If its mounted next to the helm for your entertainment, it would be good.

The speaker is water resistant not water proof. So the answer to the question would be no you can not fully submerge the speaker.

If your radio comes with a PA switch, you should have a jack socket on the back of your radio which would allow you to connect this speaker to your radio. Not knowing your particular radio, I can only say that "typically" a 3.5 mm RCA Phone plug would work. If you don't have a socket on the back and you knew what you were doing - I suppose you could wire it directly but I wouldn't advise doing it that way. Just obtain a radio which is equipped with a PA switch. By obtaining a radio with a PA capability it will have at least two sockets. One of them will be a socket for an external speaker and next to that another one for your PA speaker. Good luck . . .

Audio is limited and probably insufficient in a party environment. I use mine outdoors while relaxing in our spa and the volume just about exceeds the hum of the circulation pumps. It is also water resistant or splash proof. I would not suggest submerging it but certainly holds up in a light rain.

New Yawkuh: The speaker is not as good as a typical transistor AM radio. Some types of sound seem work better than others - for example I can easily use it to hear my trumpet practice but it's not so good for listening to voices especially if there is any background noise.It is handy now and then to get a rough idea, but I don't really use the speaker very often. Typically I might use it occasionally to give a quick sound bite to my band mates during my jazz band rehearsals so they can hear how we are sounding.

Not as part of the speaker. You would need to use Bluetooth connection to radio on your phone or other Bluetooth device with radio. It is a speaker only.

No I'm sorry this would not work for what you want. This speaker is made to plug into CB radio or actually any radio and the noise that it cancels only applies to voice or music coming thru the speaker. In other words CB radios are notoriously noisy and when you turn on the noise canceling feature it only serves to take some of the noise out of the audio coming from the speaker and nothing else. Also calling it a noise canceling speaker is not exactly accurate it only removes some of the higher frequencies out of the signal where a lot of noise or hiss resides but on the other hand it makes the audio sound a little bassy which sometimes can make it hard to ear the audio so it's kind of a give and take propositions.

I believe the radio can handle the occasional rain drop splash with no problem. It's nicely made and has a tight cabinet. The only weakness would be the speaker itself which is only a paper cone. My real concern for your application is volume. I really like the unit but outdoor in an open area, it doesn't get very loud.

1. This is a water proof speaker why would you buy this for a laptop? 2. It is bluetooth; if your laptop is not Bluetooth, than no.

It will work with your CO radio. It is the same as a speaker. Your CB may not have enough power to utilize the 100 watt range but it should sound just fine.

The mic would need to connect with a mini/aux plug. But, I think the mic would need its own power to work. I don't feel this speaker sounds good playing music, so I would assume it would be a poor PA as well.

This is one of the most rugged and sturdy outdoor bluetooth speakers out there! With that said, it is very important to know that it is not 100% weather or material proof. I would say it's not even 50% proof. It is made to get a little wet or dirty, but I would not subject it to too much sand or water. Especially with sand, that can get inside and screw things up!

The connections it comes with are standard 3.5 mm jacks so as long as your ext speaker and pa outs are 3.5 mm (hard to imagine they are anything but) then it should work fine with any cb radio
