Raymarine Passive VHF Radio Speaker f/Ray90 & Ray91 - Black - Medium Product Description
Enhance your onboard communication with the Raymarine passive VHF radio speaker, designed specifically to pair seamlessly with Ray90 and Ray91 systems. In the demanding marine environment, where engine noise and wind can drown out critical transmissions, this medium-sized black speaker delivers crisp, reliable audio right where you need it most—whether in the cabin, helm station, or quieter corners of your vessel.
Boost Audio Clarity in Noisy Marine Settings
Boaters know the frustration of strained conversations during VHF exchanges. This unamplified speaker taps directly into your Ray90 or Ray91's audio output, providing undistorted sound without the complexity of powered units. Its lightweight construction ensures it won't add unnecessary weight to your setup, while the durable housing stands up to splashes, humidity, and salt air exposure common on the water.
Ideal for multi-station installations, it extends audio reach to areas like the galley or crew quarters, keeping everyone informed without shouting across decks. Anglers, cruisers, and commercial operators alike appreciate how it maintains voice intelligibility, potentially improving safety during maneuvers or emergencies.

Simple Installation for DIY Boaters
Setting up this speaker requires minimal tools and no electrical expertise. Connect the included 2-meter cable to your wired handset base for instant audio.

For best results, position away from direct engine vibrations to preserve audio fidelity over time.
Pro tip: Pair it with sound-absorbing cabin panels to further reduce ambient noise, creating an optimal listening zone during long passages or fishing trips.

Its passive design means no power draw or wiring hassles, making it a low-maintenance addition that enhances your VHF system's reach without compromising reliability.
