- Sold as a matched pair
- 100 watts RMS per speaker
- 200 watts maximum per speaker
- Kevlar mid-bass cones
- Integrated PEI dome tweeters
- Built-in 6dB crossover
- V8™ Dispersion Guide for wide tweeter output

- Protective grilles and hardware included
Cicada CXX525 Pro Coaxial Overview
The Cicada Audio CXX525 is designed for motorcycle audio systems that need full-range sound from a compact 5.25-inch speaker platform.
Its coaxial design combines the mid-bass driver and tweeter into one speaker assembly. This reduces the number of separate components required while providing strong mid-bass, clear vocals and high-frequency detail from compatible factory or custom motorcycle speaker locations.
Select the CXX525.2 2Ω version or the CXX525.4 4Ω version based on your amplifier, channel configuration and final speaker impedance.
Available Impedance Options and SKUs
CXX525.2 — 2-Ohm Version
Select the 2Ω version when your amplifier is stable at the intended 2-ohm channel load and your complete speaker wiring is designed for the lower impedance.
CXX525.4 — 4-Ohm Version
Select the 4Ω version for amplifiers and multi-speaker systems designed around a 4-ohm channel load.
What Comes in the Box
- Two Cicada Audio CXX525 5.25-inch Pro Coaxial speakers
- Selected 2Ω or 4Ω speaker configuration
- Two protective 5.25-inch speaker grilles
- Speaker installation hardware
Why Riders Choose the CXX525
100W RMS Power Handling
Each 5.25-inch speaker handles 100 watts RMS and 200 watts maximum for strong output from a properly matched motorcycle amplifier.
2Ω or 4Ω Variants
Two impedance options allow the speakers to be matched to different amplifiers, channel loads and multi-speaker configurations.
Pro Coaxial Design
The integrated mid-bass driver and tweeter provide full-range output without requiring a separately mounted tweeter.
V8™ Dispersion Guide
Cicada’s dispersion guide is designed to distribute tweeter output more evenly around the speaker for broader high-frequency coverage.
Kevlar Cone
The lightweight Kevlar cone is strong, heat resistant and moisture resistant for efficient, controlled mid-bass performance.
All-Weather Construction
Rain or Shine™ construction and UV-protected surfaces are designed for exposed motorcycle audio environments.
CXX525 Speaker Technology
- V8™ Dispersion Guide supports wide high-frequency dispersion from the integrated tweeter
- Built-in 6dB crossover manages the transition between the mid-bass driver and integrated tweeter
- Kevlar cone provides a lightweight, rigid and moisture-resistant speaker diaphragm
- PEI tweeter dome delivers bright, efficient high-frequency output
- Copper voice coils support efficient conductivity while helping control heat
- N45H neodymium motor provides strong output without the weight of a conventional ferrite motor
- Custom-tooled polycarbonate basket is designed for high-temperature motorcycle installations
- UV-protected surfaces help resist fading and damage from extended exposure to sunlight

- Compatible with properly sized 5.25-inch motorcycle speaker locations.
- Model-specific mounting brackets or adapters may be required.
- Factory speaker connectors may require an adapter or new terminals.
- Confirm the 4.6-inch mounting opening before installation.
- Confirm approximately 2.25 inches of available mounting depth.
- Verify that the included grille fits the intended installation location.
Amplifier and Crossover Setup
- Select CXX525.2 for a compatible 2Ω amplifier channel load.
- Select CXX525.4 for a compatible 4Ω amplifier channel load.
- Do not connect a 2Ω speaker to an amplifier channel not rated for 2Ω operation.
- Confirm final impedance when multiple speakers share one amplifier channel.
- Use an appropriate high-pass crossover for the speaker location and system goals.
- Set amplifier gain using clean measured output rather than control position alone.
- Reduce low-frequency output that exceeds the speaker’s operating range.
- Professional system tuning is recommended.

Cicada CXX525 FAQ
Is this listing for the 2Ω or 4Ω version?
This single listing includes both versions. Select CXX525.2 for the 2Ω speaker pair or CXX525.4 for the 4Ω speaker pair before adding the product to your cart.
Are the CXX525 speakers sold individually or as a pair?
Both the CXX525.2 and CXX525.4 variants are sold as a pair.
Which impedance should I choose?
Choose the impedance supported by your amplifier and complete speaker wiring plan. The final channel load depends on the number of speakers connected and whether they are wired individually, in series or in parallel.
How much power can the CXX525 handle?
Each speaker is rated for 100 watts RMS and 200 watts maximum power.
Are these coaxial speakers?
Yes. Each CXX525 combines a 5.25-inch mid-bass driver and integrated tweeter in one Pro Coaxial speaker assembly.
Does the CXX525 use an external crossover?
No external component crossover is required for the integrated tweeter. The speaker includes a built-in 6dB crossover.
Are speaker grilles included?
Yes. The speaker pair includes protective grilles and installation hardware.
Will these fit every 5.25-inch motorcycle speaker location?
No. Fitment depends on the motorcycle year, model, speaker opening, mounting depth, grille clearance and required mounting adapters.
Does this speaker pair need an amplifier?
A properly matched motorcycle amplifier that is stable at the selected speaker impedance is recommended to take advantage of the speakers’ output and power handling.
What warranty does Cicada Audio provide?
Cicada Audio lists a two-year manufacturer warranty for both CXX525 impedance variants.
Need Help Choosing 2 Ohms or 4 Ohms?
Call Garage Bagger Stereo with your motorcycle year, model, speaker locations, amplifier and planned wiring. We’ll help determine which CXX525 impedance is correct and identify the proper mounting, wiring and signal-integration components for your system.
