Cicada Audio CH69.2W — 6x9" All-Weather Horn Coaxial Motorcycle Speakers (2Ω)

Cicada Audio CH69.2W — 6x9" All-Weather Horn Coaxial Speakers for Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Rear Stages (2Ω)

A high-output 6x9” horn-loaded rear speaker engineered for riders who want maximum volume, projection and clarity from their saddlebag lids or rear pods.
The Cicada Audio CH69.2W is an all-weather 6x9-inch horn coaxial designed specifically for high-output motorcycle systems. Its 2Ω impedance pulls more power from modern amplifiers, delivering higher SPL, stronger midbass and superior high-frequency projection — perfect for loud bagger builds.

Rain-resistant, wash-safe and built to survive harsh Australian heat, the CH69.2W is the go-to choice for serious rear-stage output.

Key Features

  • 2Ω impedance: Maximises amplifier power for extreme output.
  • All-weather construction: Built for rain, washdowns, humidity and heat.
  • Horn-loaded aluminium tweeter: Long-throw highs that stay clear at highway speeds.
  • Strong midbass response: Ideal for saddlebag lid systems.
  • High-efficiency design: Loud performance even with compact motorcycle amps.
  • Perfect for multi-speaker Harley systems: Matches CHX/CH front horn stages.

⚠️ IMPORTANT – Crossover & Setup Requirements (Read Before Installation)

All horn speakers have mechanical limits. Regardless of power ratings or advertised “MAX” figures, a speaker can only move so far before mechanical failure occurs.

Most horn speaker failures are NOT burned voice coils. In real-world motorcycle installs, damage is typically caused by over-excursion — the speaker moving too far because it is crossed over too low.

This leads to tinsel leads tearing away from the voice coil or spider. Once this happens, the speaker is permanently damaged.

Required High-Pass Crossover Settings
  • CH65.4v2 / CH65.2v2: 120 Hz and up, 24 dB/octave
  • CH69.4W / CH69.2W: 90 Hz and up, 24 dB/octave
  • CH8.4W / CH8.2W: 90 Hz and up, 24 dB/octave

Lower crossover points WILL cause distortion and speaker damage.

Saddlebag & Pod Installations – Critical Note

When using 6×9 or 8-inch Pro Mid-Bass / Horn drivers inside saddlebags, internal air volume is limited.

Cicada Audio strongly recommends the following DSP settings:

  • 250 Hz @ 24 dB/octave, or
  • 300 Hz @ 12 dB/octave

Never run these speakers full-range.
Any lower crossover point in saddlebag applications will result in mechanical over-excursion and permanent speaker failure.

Amplifier & Wiring Setup Notes
  • Most “blown” horn speakers are caused by under-powered or clipping amplifiers, not excessive power.
  • Always use a high-pass filter on horn drivers.
  • Avoid running speakers below their resonance frequency (Fs).
  • Set amplifier gain correctly to prevent clipping.

Always high-pass coaxial horn drivers.

Why Riders Choose the 2Ω Version

  • Louder, more dynamic output: Takes full advantage of modern motorcycle amplifiers.
  • Superior projection: Clear vocals and highs for passengers and group rides.
  • Ideal for performance baggers: Strong midbass and high SPL.
  • Matches perfectly with Cicada CHX & CH front horn speakers.
