Golden crisp sound rather hitting highs or lows. These polk speakers hit hard an clear! However dont expect bass from these speakers, they arent made for that purpose, but if you also have subs the sound in your car will be perfect. Hope this helps- Brad.

I have owned these speakers for about 6 months now and found them to be very reliable. They are stock replacements which made them easy to install, and easily handle the extra wattage of my aftermarket headunit. Value wise, I'd say they are well worth it.

love these speakers. Sooooo much clearer. Rear honda speakers were muddy and no clarity. The imaging coming from the back is more pronounced now. Tweeters are crisp and bass is tight. i may amplify these later with a four channel amp, 2 channels for the rear and bridge the other 2 for a sub. Totally happy!

Steven from Garland, TX

I purchased these along side the DB691. I powered them first by an aftermarket head unit, then a mediocre under-powered amp, and finally by an Alpine amp more suited towards the RMS ratings of this speaker. In all three setups these speakers were leaning more on the 'bright' side. However, after a month of appropriately powering them with the Alpine amp they finally started to break in and sounded a lot more full. Even though they sounded a little better than right out of the box, there's still a lack of mid-bass. As long as you have a sub in your setup you should be good to go! Overall, I'd say these are a great bang for your buck!

T-Dub from cohoes, ny

I installed 2 sets of these speakers in my 21 foot open bow boat with a Rockford Punch 200-2. These things get loud and clear and the
bass is really good if mounted where there is a compartment behind them. Out of the box highs are a little harsh but acceptable and can be toned down if your head unit has the capability. I did a some adjusting and i am impressed with how good they sound. I plan on adding another set.......soon! Get these you won't be disappointed!!!! I gave them 3 stars on durability because i just installed them and the grill has some spacing as far as protection.

These speakers were relatively cheap compared to other in its class.
The high end performance out of these speakers is unmatched but need to produce a little more bass. If you have a sub complementing these speakers, they are well worth the money. Polk is a world class organization and produce products that fall in line with their reputation. Enjoy!!

These speakers are very impressive. Very clear sound with decent bass on head unit. HOWEVER If you choose to install an amp with these speakers, you will be rewarded with clarity AND bass. My system has these two speakers and one 8" Infinity woofer with a 1600 watt amp. Installed with one speaker per channel and bridge the other channels to the sub. Awesome sound. Great speakers !!!

These are one of the best speakers you can buy without getting into components or needing to run an amp to them to make them loud. They are very crisp and have no distortion when the music is up louder. I would definitely buy these speakers again.

Review by
Roman199 from Riverside, CA

Great speakers for an even better price. Very well built and sound phenomenal. Offer great highs, good mid, and surprising bass. They shake my truck even when they are barely cranked. I have a 98 GMC Sonoma with a JVC head unit running 18 watts RMS power and the speakers have plenty of power.
My only complaint is that installing the speakers was very difficult. The supplied mounting bracket was nowhere close to the right size for my truck so I had to re-drill mounts and use those horribly tiny mounting brackets they send you. The speakers are also much taller than stock and push on the door panels slightly. Grill did not even begin to fit. Overall, though, I would recommend these speakers for anything from a stock head unit to a powerful aftermarket head with an amp. They are a major upgrade I should have done years ago. I plan on putting these speakers in every future car I own.

Review by
Joe from Cochranton, PA

I purchased 2 sets of these along with a set of Polk db351's for my dash. These were installed in a 2004 Trailblazer EXT and I have to say that they offer way more than I anticipated in terms of sound quality. I have the 4 651's attached to about 80w rms and the 351's running off of my head unit (17w rms).
I had a set of cheaper coax's previously and there is no comparison between those and these. They look great, feel sturdy, and perform way better than I thought they would. I would absolutely buy these again and would recommend them to anyone looking for speakers in this price range. Through many communications with them and verifying on Polk's website, these do handle 100w rms per speaker. Even better deal for 65 bucks!!!

Installed 6 months ago to replace the oem crappy front speakers on 2011 Hyundai Tucson Ltd. Sound quality improved a lot. Easy good fit installation with the accessories provided, but the simple manual does not help. The good looking grill covers cannot be used which is a waste. I got a good deal/bargin from Sonic, cheaper than I buy locally in Canada even with all the shipping, handling costs.
In addition, I feel the Polk Audio db651 sounds even better than the Infinity ref 6032si I installed in the rear doors. Highly recommended at this price range.

I started with replacing the factory door speakers in my 2001 Golf TDI 2 door and at that time I also installed Dynamat in the doors and along the rear side panels. WOW. Huge difference is hearing the sound at all levels.
Of course I then had to order another pair to replace the factory rear speakers. Again a very noticeable improvement in sound texture and quality. Very satisfied with the Polk Audio db651 product and with SonicElectronix.com for their low prices and fast shipping.

I am running these with a Sony CDX M60UI, a pair of db521s and a Bazooka 8" passive sub. The sound is wonderful. Very crisp highs and soft lows. I have heard that they sound even better with an amp. Not much room in my little boat to mount an amp, but these sound so good, I really don't need one. With a 92dB sensitivity rating, a few watts will give you great sound. I would recommend these to anyone.

After doing plenty of research I decided to install these in my 99 Toyota tacoma Xtracab. Was looking for a bit better power handling 2 way speaker and these filled the order quite well.
Pros: Excellent power handling speaker with plenty of highs and lows and the materials to handle high output with clarity. Cons; These are not a direct bolt in into a 99 Toyota Tacoma Xtracab, you will have to do some modifying, but not much. Not really a Con per say, as I knew I would have to modify before the purchase.

Replaced stock very cheap, tinny rear door speakers, 6 1/2", in 2009 Suzuki SX4 Crossover and am very, very satisfied. Had NO bass before and the extra benefit is the very crisp midrange now as well. Snipped connector plastic off of old speakers, snipped wires at cone and soldered to the tabs on the new ones, so still have a plugable design; necessary to drill my own holes for mounting and these are a perfect fit for the door panel ! This Zuk is easy to work on. And your prices are great !

Ordered a pair of these 2 years ago to replace blown OEMs in the front. The rear OEMs finally gave out so I'm buying another pair. Quality and ease of install added to great sound from a well-known company made this a complete no-brainer. Sonic Electronix was great then (price and service) so, of course, I came back. Next, a new head unit.

These speakers are just about the best around. The 1" tweeter gives you that high end boost that you always need. Before I bought these, my Sony speakers were being drowned out by subwoofers, now I have a clear crisp sound coming throughout my car. If you are looking for reasonably priced great speakers then these are for you. One of the flaws in Polk's design is that the cool looking grills that you see in the picture won't fit in most cars. I really didn't care about the grills after I heard them for the first time though. These speakers are great for any type of music whether it is rock, hip hop, or even classical. They give you a great sound in any environment.
