Cicada Audio — Horn Speakers
Cicada Horn-Loaded Speakers for Harley-Davidson Touring
Cicada CH and CHX horn-loaded coaxials use a horn to raise sensitivity, so they play louder on the same amplifier power than a conventional driver. On a bike, where available amplifier power and electrical capacity are limited and there is wind and traffic to compete with, that efficiency turns into real, usable volume. These are the Cicada speakers for high-output systems and for getting the most from a compact amplifier.
This collection carries CHX pro horn coaxials in 5.25, 6.5, 6x9 and 8 inch, the CH65 V2 high-efficiency coaxial horns, CH69 W all-weather 6x9 horn coaxials, RR3 acoustic waveguides, and matched FLX horn stage systems that pair the drivers with an amplifier and, in the PRO versions, an FLX PRO amplifier with onboard DSP. Match the size and impedance to your position and amplifier, and check each product's environmental rating for the weather detail.
Why You'll Love It
- More output per watt: the horn raises sensitivity, so the speaker plays louder on the same amplifier power.
- Cuts through wind: the efficiency and projection carry over wind and traffic at highway speed.
- Full size range: CHX pro horn coaxials in 5.25, 6.5, 6x9 and 8 inch, in 2Ω and 4Ω.
- Matched stage systems: FLX horn front and full stages that pair the drivers with an amplifier and, in PRO form, an FLX PRO amplifier with onboard DSP.
- Dispersion control: RR3 acoustic waveguides to shape the treble for the mounting position.
FAQ
Why choose horn-loaded over a standard coaxial?
Horn-loaded drivers are more efficient, so they play louder for the same power, which suits high-output systems and compact amplifiers. A standard coaxial can be smoother for lower-volume listening.
What is a horn stage system?
It pairs Cicada horn coaxials with a matched FLX amplifier and, in the PRO versions, an FLX PRO amplifier with onboard DSP, as one package for a specific bike, so the amp and tuning are handled for you.
Are the horn speakers weatherproof?
Cicada horn coaxials use weather-resistant materials, and the range includes all-weather models. Check each product's environmental rating rather than assuming every model shares the same figure.
What size should I choose?
Match it to your position: 5.25 or 6.5 inch for the fairing, 6x9 for saddlebags with the right lid, and 8 inch for lowers or custom enclosures. Confirm fitment for your bike.
