External Rectangular Speaker for Ham Radio, CB, and Scanner Communications

Anon: This is exactly what I needed to be able to hear my CB radio communications while in my deuce and a half while on the highway. I would definitely recommend.

Arnethedog: Tried high end Bose pc speakers and Bose Solo 5 soundbar. The Solo worked well on Uniden SRS200 with dialogue mode selected but then this small low priced speaker I ordered from Amazon beat them all for clarity of voice from the scanner.

I would suggest trying this small speaker first as you might find it as good as I did and for the price it’s hard to beat.

David Moore: I was surprised at the quality of the audio coming out of this small speaker. Well worth the money.

DaveDubyaDaveDubya: The sound quality of the built-in speaker of DB-25 is acceptable but it can be difficult to recognize people just by their voice.

Since the DB-25G does not have a dedicated external speaker jack I had to modify the external speaker to use the DB-25G's rear 4 pole microphone jack.

The easiest and most flexible way I found to do this is remove the cord from the speaker and replace it with the 4 pole 3.5 mm jack (see picture). I'm now able to connect the external speaker to my DB-25G using a short male/male 4 pole cable.

RICHARD LATTER: I was hoping for an improvement for a Chinese Retevis RT95 dual band transceiver though sadly this is worse.
If you’ve heard a Baofeng ht that’s the sound your getting out of this so it’s overpriced and not worth it.

Bernhard Trümper: Leider ist dieser Lautsprecher ohne Verstärkung, es war ein Versuch meinerseits diesen am Fernseher als Zusatz zu benutzen. Die Verarbeitung ist dennoch hervorragend.

Dirk M.: Der gelieferte Lautsprecher hatte ein technisches Problem. Die Windungen der Spule unter der Lautsprechermembran schliffen im Magneten. Dies führte zu starken Verzerrungen bei leisen Geräuschen. Bei Lauten Geräuschen fällt das fast nicht auf. Der interne Blechtrichter (in dem die Lautsprechermembran aufgehängt ist) hat leider eine geringe Stabilität. Durch das Verschrauben mit dem Plastikgehäuse wurde der Trichter verformt, was dazu führt, dass sich die Membran nicht mehr frei bewegen kann. Lockert man die Schrauben, so funktioniert der Lautsprecher wieder. Es mag sich um ein Einzelproblem gehandelt haben. Ich halte die mechanische Konstruktion aber für nicht ausreichend um eine zuverlässige Funktion zu erreichen.

D. DrummondD. Drummond: I have an Icom 2820H ham radio, with the main unit mounted in the back under the seat of my Grand Cherokee. You can hear the audio from it, but there have been times when it was difficult to make out what was being said. I've wanted to have a remote speaker in the front, but there just aren't many good spots on this vehicle without it just sticking out there or in the way. There is a little cubby hole in the front dash stack at the bottom, right about the factory USB/aux ports. Because of it's location, it's hard to see up in and not very useful for putting anything in.....except this little speaker. I was specifically looking for one to fit in there, and it's a small fit, so I ordered this one.

It was just a tad too big to fit, but I did some modifications and it works and sounds great and is essentially hidden. To help visualize this, think about if you ever bought an item that was tied to the back of the package with those long wire ties and how securely in there it was. This was the idea here.

What I did was remove the front faceplate with the speaker attached from the body. To do this you have to unsolder the wires from the speaker temporarily. This allowed the...
