Rockford Fosgate 4 New R165X3 6.5" 180W 3 Way Car Audio Coaxial Speakers Stereo

Product Information

Affordable is, of course always relative to the budget of the person that is shopping but it is definitely fair to say that in the world of factory replacement speakers, this unit comes in at the lower end of the price spectrum. When money is no object, it’s hard to beat handmade Morel Supremo 602 speakers for your car. The 6.5-inch component speaker system features a 1.1-inch silk soft dome tweeter coated in a material to enhance movement and damping for clearer sound, and the speakers come with a larger voice coil size to improve heat dissipation and temperature control. Construction: Factory speakers aren't usually made with the highest quality materials, so they eventually start to degrade. The good news is that many low-cost aftermarket speakers are a huge improvement over OEM speakers. Look for speakers with rubber surrounds, which are durable, sound good, and are much better than foam and paper surrounds. The speaker also comes with its own mounting gear including screws and wires, so you won’t have to buy extra material just to set this speaker up. All you need to do is replace your current car speakers with these ones and you’re ready to go.

Vacuum Polypropylene – While the tweeters and midrange handle higher frequencies, the woofer handles the Lowe ones, and for this reason, the cone of the woofer is made of vacuum polypropylene, which is one of the best and most used materials for mid range woofers. Frequency Range: The frequency range refers to the musical tones that a speaker reproduces. Audio frequencies are measured in hertz (Hz), and humans can generally hear frequencies from 20Hz (low bass tones) to 20Khz (high treble notes). A wider frequency range is better because the speaker is able to more efficiently reproduce sound. Although there is no extreme bass from these coaxial speakers, unlike what component speakers are capable of, you will love the audio quality from the R165X3. The speakers have amazing crossovers which help the speakers to play sounds of any frequency without great distortion. It is much better than the older R165 speakers. The speakers are tough and sturdy, giving the feeling of great build quality. There is a steel frame around the speakers that will protect it from hard hits. The rubber around the speaker is next in line to protect the speaker itself and it’s there to significantly improve their longevity. They have been constructed with an elastic polypropylene material. Titanium and Mylar materials of long-lasting variety have been used to design the tweeters of the speakers. What I Like Playing sounds that are above the wattage levels of the speaker can damage the voice call and give you a distorted noise permanently, so it is great that this relatively small speaker has such a high-power level.

Conclusion

For a start, the speakers have an appealing, aesthetic appearance. They measure 8.1 inches high, 7.1 inches long and 10.9 inches wide in dimensions. The R165X3 is a 3-Way speaker which means that the woofers, midrange drivers, and tweeters are on their own, providing you with a better sound experience. The R165X3 has a sensitivity of 91 dB and the RMS is 45W. The peak power of the speakers is 90W but as it’s explained here, peak power is not as important as RMS. The impedance of the speakers is 4 Ohms which is pretty much standard for car speakers today.

Given the combination of performance and price, these speakers are available at a really great value. Easy to Install Please call us during normal business hours at 1-800-669-9899 (option #1) and be prepared with the following information: These aren’t necessarily speakers that you buy because you want to upgrade your sound system. They fall more into the “factory replacement niche.” That being the case, there are certainly a great many shoppers that will probably want to consider another option.This material is also one of the most durable that you can buy while also providing a booming bass that will please your ear and your heart. Component speakers are preferred by sound-junkies because they have the ability to isolate high and low frequencies but they can be quite hard to install, while on the other hand, coaxial speakers don’t have the ability to isolate high and low frequencies, they are very easy to install. Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you, may vary. These speakers are not going to satisfy audiophiles. At the end of the day, these speakers are at the lower end of the market, meaning that they are budget-friendly. Thus, you cannot expect the most amazing, great sound. We always take the price into consideration when writing a review and for the price, they sound amazing but for an audiophile, I would suggest the Infinity Kappa 62.11I instead.

Silk Dome for Tweeter and smoother hi frequencies – To allow for great sound on high frequencies, it is essential for your speaker’s tweeters to be made of a softer material, and silk happens to be one of the softest materials that is also quite durable. The RMS wattage of these speakers is 45 watts and the Peak Power is 90 watts, both of which are great wattage’s to have. The RMS is the continuous power at which your speaker runs while the Peak Power is the highest wattage at which the speaker can run, so having a high number on both of those is essential.If you are the type of person that thinks the volume is too low until you have to yell at the person next to you, these speakers might not be for you. Because, when you turn up really high, the speakers can produce a slightly distorted sound. If you are not listening to max at all times, I don’t see this a problem, really, but it’s worth mentioning. This set of speakers falls short in too many categories for it to earn a perfect rating. Though these shortcomings are expected given the category that these speakers fall under, they nevertheless do lose them a few rating points.
