A perfect system starts off with perfect aftermarket car speakers. If you are a fanatic of a great sounding speaker, then the Rockford Fosgate Punch Series is meant for you. It is a full-range speaker with a flex-fit basket to ensure compatibility. By utilizing slots instead of single sized screw holes, allows for a slight adjustment of the speaker when mounted. This becomes useful if you are mounting the speakers in an odd shaped factory speaker location. The integrated concealed crossover hides the crossover inside the basket, decreasing and simplifying installation time. Minimizing the time between taking the speakers out of the box to installing them in your vehicle, the Punch speakers feature an OEM Adapter plate system that allows full-range speaker to fit in certain openings. The adapter plate features “break-away” tabs that can be removed to fit all speaker sizes.
The Punch series speakers feature VAST (Vertical Attach Surround Technique) which increases a speaker’s effective radiating cone area without complicating installation. The design eliminates the large flat glue surface area which allows the surround to be shifted for increased cone area. With this, nominal efficiency and maximum output capabilities are improved. The P1653 is a 6-1/2" 3-way speaker that has all the features mentioned above.

I'll readily admit that i was a bit worried and apprehensive about getting these speakers. This is all because i never owned Rockford Fosgate products and because i thought that all the rave reviews for these speakers were just "hype". Well let me be the one to tell you that these speakers definitely deserve all the great reviews and more! The price for these speakers are great due to these speakers being more than their worth. The bass is very good matched with my Pioneer HU and the highs are crisp. Keep in mind that i have no amp and running these speakers strictly off of the headunit. Sonic Electronix is also a good online retailer with their prices and shipping. All my items were packaged very nice without anything missing. When my package arrived i immediately went to have the speakers installed to my rear deck and what a difference! The one con that i have though is that if i did install the speakers myself, then they would be a bit tricky but nothing major. I'm so excited about these speakers that i now want some components to replace my stock speakers in the front. I'll definitely be sure to not only get Rockford speakers but i will also order them from Sonic Electronix as well.

These were the first speakers I have ever bought for anything. I only went with them because my father, who worked for Sonic Electronix for 12 years as an installer, told me Rockford Fosgates were his favorite brand. I can see why! These speakers are amazing. I replaced my stock door speakers with these. I had plans of replacing the speakers behind my seats with subs, but never mind! These speakers are good enough. I'm just going to replace the 4" speakers behind my seat with some 6x9's and be done. That should be more than enough. It already shakes my little ranger.

Just installed these speakers today to replace my factory speakers, it was a bit of a hassle but i got it done and it was well worth it. What a big difference in sound, I regret waiting so long to make the change. If you buy these speakers I'm begging you please use a amp to get the full potential. I'm using a jl xd 700/5 amp for power and the mids and highs are clean and very detailed. No regrets. Very satisfied.
