Evolution™ C5 is a serious product, engineered by JL Audio to meet the demands of the toughest acoustic and environmental conditions in the high-fidelity world. It is not about cute buzzwords or the exotic material of the month... it's all about making your music come alive with realism and excitement. C5 woofers and tweeters are precision-built in Germany alongside JL's flagship ZR components, incorporating their exclusive DMA-optimized motor and patented Elevated Frame Cooling technologies. Particular emphasis has been placed on off-axis response and dynamic stability which might not be that important during a five minute evaluation on a demo board, but makes all the difference when installed in your car. The system is comprised of high-end silk dome tweeters, die-cast alloy baskets, and renowned Kurt Müller designed cones and suspensions. In addition, C5 crossover networks are compact and built with premium component parts, including Mylar capacitors and segmented air-core inductors. Four levels of tweeter attenuation are provided, as well as three levels of mid-range presence adjustment, for twelve possible voicing combinations! The combination of these components provide smooth and transparent audio for the true Audiophile!
JL Audio C5 tweeters incorporate silk dome diaphragms to deliver smooth high-frequency transitions, on and off-axis. Silk is a natural material with inherently good characteristics as a tweeter diaphragm. In addition to being very light in weight, silk exhibits excellent damping properties, which reduces ringing and resonances in the tweeter's passband, leading to a smooth, pleasing high-frequency character free from unnatural sibilance or exaggerated brightness. This is why a Silk Dome Tweeter is preferred by many audiophiles for its overall balance. The small size of the tweeter minimizes tweeter protrusion, allowing it to easily fit behind most factory speaker grilles.
DMA is JL Audio's proprietary Dynamic Motor Analysis system and is aimed at improving dynamic motor behavior. As a result of DMA optimization, Evolution C5 motors remain linear in motor force over an extreme range of excursion and also maintain a highly stable fixed magnetic field in the gap over a wide power range. This leads to vastly reduced distortion and faithfully reproduced transients... or put simply: tight, clean, articulate low end. In addition, JL Audio turns to their partners at Germany's Dr. Kurt Müller & Co. for critical cone and suspension elements that provide unparalleled woofer performance.
Priced Per Complete Component System: 2 midwoofers, 2 tweeters and 2 crossover networks.

JL C5 gets an A+
Very impressed at the sound quality of these. Mounted in a 96 4Runner, stock location woofer and tweeter. Made semi custom mount to flush mount the tweeter so i could use the JL tweeter grill. Fully deadened doors, I think this made a huge improvement in bass response. Tweeter is excellent, never harsh at high volume. Crossed at 90hz, getting 110 rms watts. I have a high quality Boston G5 sub getting 400+ and they blend beautifully. I would certainly recommend these, I was more than impressed at their sound.

found this helpful.I Love These Speakers!
First off, I am depth limited by the 2011 Subaru WRX doors, so it ruled a lot of other drivers out of the equation without severe customization. The tweeter dropped right into the stock location with very little effort and the woofer only took a 3/4" spacer to fit in the door. Based on these limitations, I don't think a better set of components exists on the market! Another plus is that I love the way they sound.

I installed a pair of these in my 2009 chevy silverado crew cab and all i can say is wow!! i have these in the front and the c2 6.5" components in the back door, and i dont have them running on a good amp right now but im buying the xd 600/6 soon! Doing custom door panels in the front and putting two of these c5s in the door, and put a pair in the back. Clear no distortion, it was hard for me to swicth from the rockford t1 components but these are amazing! The tweeter its self lights up my truck, but im not gonna lie, i need louder!! haha i think that im used to them now i wanna go louder which i am soon. Buy them!!!

My fiancé bought these for me for Christmas and all I can say is WOW! I have them hooked up to JL Audio 300/4 and the sound is so amazing. Amidst all the other music coming through the speakers, the tweeters are able to still make every hit of the snare perfectly audible. (the snare usually gets drowned out by all the other music) The crossover options make fine tuning of the system even better by being able to adjust the presence of the tweeter and mid-woofer individually.
I will be buying a set of the coaxial version of these speakers for my rear doors very soon and would not buy them from anywhere else other than Sonic Electronix.

I have ran the focal k2 power series probably in 2003. I went to the local shop that always did my installs, they didnt have the c5's hooked up but my guy Greg he told me to trust him. I bought a pair and they ran on a 300/4 for the front and a 300/2 for the rears and its insane, bight, clear, loud, painful. If u like clear loud music, get these speakers. I have only used focal k2 power which were 799.00 a pair. These speakers are insane,,they are easily worth the 599.00 retail tag.

I installed these in a Mini cooper powered by a JL xd400/4. The sq of these is unmatched. The highs are crisp, clear, and powerful and the mids and lows are warm and clean. Perfect speaker for my listening taste.

I have these speakers paired with the C5-650x and the C2-690tx, all powered by a JL Audio 6-channel amp inside my Honda Ridgeline. I also have a Kicker 10" shallow mount sub with a Kicker amp. I upgraded from Pioneer "A" series speakers, and could not be happier. The JL Audio's put out Crisp, Clean sound. The 6x9's thump so hard, who needs a sub. Ok really, but they are that good.
Sonic Electronix stayed on the phone with me for quite some time helping me out. Their customer service is awesome. When somebody does me right, I become a spokes person for them. I have sent many people their way and will continue to do so.
