Review Summary For : ICOM SP-41
Reviews: 2MSRP: $249.95
Description:
The Icom SP-41 External Speaker, styled to match the Icom IC-7610, offers a refined set of features and performance appropriate for a new generation of direct sampling base station radios. With similar specifications and size as the SP-23, the high quality SP-41 provides great audio for almost any transceiver. The passive SP-41 base station speaker features a steel enclosure for RF shielding, a bale stand for front elevation, and a specially selected 8 ohm, 80 mm driver for full-range communications audio. Front panel push-button switches select high-cut and low-cut audio filters and “Speaker Off” mutes the speaker without the need to disturb the AF level control setting on the radio. The SP-41 front panel also features a standard headphone jack, 6.35mm TRS (1/4 in. stereo), delivering filtered dual mono from the selected speaker input. Two rear panel input jacks, 3.5mm TS (1/8 in. mono) and a front panel A/B switch expand the use of the SP-41 to more than one radio. Two mono external speaker patch cables, 58.5 inches in length, with 3.5mm TS (1/8 in. mono) plugs are included. In order to take full advantage of the Icom IC-7610, order two Icom SP-41 External Speakers and enjoy separated audio from the two independent receivers in that incredible transceiver!

Very good sounding speaker for IC-7610, 9100, etc Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I just installed my new SP-41 speaker with my IC-9100 radio. They match perfectly.

This speaker sounds great! I found the High and Low filters to be very useful in improving SSB and CW readability under noisy or QRM conditions. With the filters switched out for good signals, the speaker fidelity is very, very good.

The IC-9100 has two independent receivers (Main and Sub, for satellites or multi-band monitoring), and each has its own speaker output jack. The SP-41 also has 2 input jacks and an A-B selector so you can switch between the inputs to listen to the Main or Sub receiver.

It sounds like a high quality speaker, there are no buzzes or other distortions, and I highly recommend it, especially to match the latest IC-7610 sized radios (including the IC-9100, 7410, etc.)

Fits perfect on my 7610 Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
Hi to all,
This external speaker sounds excellent. I love it.
You must know how to deal with the knobs to adjust it to your ears and the propagation and QRN.
Then you become a perfect clean signal on an SDR TRX like the IC 7610.
As always great product from a great company.
Thank you ICOM.
