They work as Defender HD10 speakers on 2018-2025 machines and as Defender HD11 speakers on 2026 models, giving you UTV rear speakers and UTV overhead speakers in one set of SSV Works speaker pods. Compared with bolt-on UTV speaker pods, the hidden mount keeps the cab clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe headliner sits between the enclosure and the speaker, so the finished install looks like the speaker is mounted in a factory overhead panel. Placing the speakers high in the rear of the cab helps fill the Defender with sound instead of relying only on front speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounts in the upper rear cab between the roof and factory roof liner for a hidden, factory-style install\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-strength rotomolded pods built for off-road use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrder unloaded, or loaded with SSV A6, SSV V6 full-range or Kicker KML 6.5-inch speakers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdds rear speaker locations to a factory, custom or full SSV Works system; powering them requires available amplifier channels (amplifier sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSSV speakers and enclosures covered by the SSV Works Limited Lifetime Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt To Solve: No Rear Speaker Coverage In The Defender HD10 And HD11\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear passengers hear little when all the sound comes from the front of the cab\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisible aftermarket boxes that eat cab space and look bolted on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo clean factory-style location to add rear speakers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBest For: Can-Am Defender HD10 And HD11 Audio Upgrades\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefender HD10 and HD11 owners adding rear speakers to a system with amplifier channels available to power them\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrew and MAX owners who carry rear-seat passengers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilders who want the Unloaded pods to run their own 6.5-inch speakers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners building a full SSV Works Defender system around a sound bar or HD11 kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeaker size: 6.5-inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnclosure: rotomolded rear-upper pods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSSV V6 option: 160W max \/ 80W RMS, 88dB sensitivity, 75Hz-20kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKicker KML option: 195W max \/ 65W RMS, 90dB sensitivity, 35Hz-21kHz, 0.75-inch tweeter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptions: Unloaded, SSV A6, SSV V6, Kicker KML\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer Part Numbers: 260-DF-B65U (Unloaded), 260-DF-B65A (A6), 260-DF-B65V (V6), 260-DF-B65KL (Kicker KML)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear-upper 6.5-inch speaker pods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeakers: loaded with the speaker option you select (SSV A6, SSV V6 or Kicker KML).
