Clearwater Miata(MX-5) Headrest Speakers

 

These custom designed two-way coaxial speakers perfectly complement our door speakers.  They will out perform any other headrest speaker available, especially the Miata factory speakers, with no modification required. They come with a specially designed harness that plugs directly into the factory radio. We offer a 1990-19941/2 harness that plugs into the factory radio and a 1995-1998 harness that plugs into the half harness under both seats.

Harness wiring is made from individual, high-flexibility conductors encased in a custom tough vinyl tubing to allow for easy installation that lays flat under carpet. Other harnesses are made from Hardware store “Zip-cord”. Clearwater harnesses are even superior to the factory wiring!

 The sound quality of these headrest speakers was tailored to sound “correct” only in the listening position of the Miata. Unlike the speakers you may listen to in the store, these speakers are designed to sound good ONLY in the Miata headrest location.  Many acoustical measurements and listening auditions were made with prototypes installed in a Miata headrest. It was very important to design the speakers with the white plastic cover installed as this is how they will he heard. No other manufacture in the world has designed a speaker only for the Miata, they cannot possibly justify the expense and time. Thousands of customers later, Clearwater is still the first name Miata owner’s mention when asked "What audio do YOU suggest for my Miata"?
