2012 Ram 1500 JBL GTO938

I installed these into the front and rear doors of my 2012 Ram 1500. These speakers fit perfect, but one hole will not line up with the speaker and will need to be drilled for the 4th screw to fit. I ordered the speaker connectors to fit the factory harness from crutchfield, and about 6 inches of wire is needed in addition to the aftermarket harness for the front speakers. This allows the harness to be connected outside the housing to prevent interference from the window bracket, and rattles.

The speakers sound amazing. They exceeded my expectations dramatically. I am only using the stereo to power and they have great sound at low and high volumes. Lows are amazing, and mid and highs sound great. I am using the Pioneer 4000 NEX as ahead unit and JL speakers in the dash. I could not be happier with the sound!

This is an amazing speaker, and the price makes it an absolute bargin!

Thank you Sonic!

Great sound for a low price

I wish I had researched these before I installed the 6.5 Alpine Type R in the rear!! They sound great with better bass response. The only con is the treble is a little "tinny" with the blocker set. Easy fix though, just push a little button. If you want better than factory sound for less then look no further.

Sounds good (It's a JBL)

This is one of the two pairs of JBL speakers I ordered (the other being the GTO528) for a friend. Both pairs got mounted inside a truck. Although I'm not a big fan of oval shaped speakers due to nonlinear distortions this one works pretty well for the price. The 0 dB /- 3dB switch for the tweeter it's nonsense, I don't see any reason for that since you'll equalize the sound from the amp/cd/tuner/mp3 player.

Excellent replacement speakers for Factory JBL system in Toyota !

I though the JBL factory system was pretty good , after replacing to these speakers I couldn't believe the difference , clear and crisp sound from theses JBL 's, the low frequency is amazing ! Just needs adaptor plates for the rear deck .

Nice speaker with factory radio, Better with a amp.

I bought these JBL speakers to replace my cheap door Factory speakers in my 2014 Nissan Frontier. Although the front factory speakers are a separate woofer/ tweeter in the dash setup, these 3 way JBL in my door panels fill the sound waves just fine. Great clean high notes, bass is just ok when used with the factory radio. I added a amp to the factory radio and thats where the JBL'S came to life. So overall i would say, Add a amp and you will be much happier.

JBL GTO938

Great sounding speakers at a reasonable price. The JBLGTO938 6x9 speakers capture the highs as well as the bass and compliment my current truck speakers wonderfully. Any doubts read current on line reviews. Also thanks to Sonic Electronix for quick easy purchase and fast shipping.

Great Speakers for a Great Price

I was looking for replacement rear speakers for my 01 Honda Accord. Not only was i happy with these but they were easy to install and sound fantastic.I have an aftermarket radio in my car and they can easily handle all i have thrown at them so far. I gave them a middle of the road rating on durability only because i just got them and do not know how long they will last.

EXCELLENT!

I bought these speakers about 5 months ago. I needed to replace the stock speakers in my car. My 4x6's and my 6x9's in my Chevy Cavalier were shot and starting to sound distorted. I ordered these just as a replacement. I could not have been happier with the highs of this car. Since interior speakers aren't usually about bass I wasn't too disappointed. The speakers actually do pump out a decent amount of lows, but the highs were just extraordinary!

JBL GTO938 6X9 Speakers

As a former DJ, I have used JBL speakers in the past. I had never tried their car speakers. These are truly in line with the normal JBL quality. They sound great. I had Alpines before and they don't even compare.

Impressive clean sound

The JBL GTO938 replaced my front 6x9's in a 1999 Dodge Turbo Diesel! Plenty of cab noise - but these speakers deliver clean, solid, and non-distorted sound - I am driving these with the stock stereo head!! They have been durable, build was solid, easy to hook up, therefore am ordering a pair of 5-1/4" for the rear.

Great choice!

Bought a set of these to replace factory equipped BOSE speakers that I blew out after about three years. Great price on the speakers (compared to the $350 replacement cost for the BOSE). And when I cranked these speakers up the sound was better than the originals! When the door speakers go, I know what I'll be replacing them with!

Awesome speakers. 2 years later

These speakers slam lows and scream the highs. Even two years later. I have had 100watts going to each speaker and I can't complain. I have infinity kappas in the front for three years and they slowly starting to go now. But these I hope and am pretty sure will keep sounding great. There is my input. I hope it helps.

These are good speakers

These speakers, when installed properly, really sound great. Booming bass with clear highs. I put them on the back window dash of my 1969 Dodge Charger 440 RT. When I need more speakers for my other classic cars these are the ones I'll order.

One bad thing, they do not come with wire and the connection plugs that connect them to the speakers. I've never seen that before.

great replacement speakers

I installed these in my 2002 grand am GT with monsoon system (2 ohm speakers)

installation was straight forward, however no speaker wiring was included. i suspect these speakers are normally powered by amplifiers and would use 14-ga / 16-ga speaker wiring. I soldered on the old speaker wires to the new 6.5" JBL's and plugged them directly in to the factory system. sound was full, and not too sharp. bass could be better, but what can you expect from a 6.5" coaxial. when partnered with the JBL 6x9 3-way's it was a great combo.

Sounds Amazing

Speakers are great, the bass is deep, and the switchable tweeter is perfect. A few warnings though: 1. For a 2005 Camry, you need adapters for front and back. I saw no mention of this anywhere. I was in a bind and had to fashion adapters from scratch. 2. These speakers come with ZERO wires. I did not have a soldering iron with me or connectors so I was back to the store. 3. Again for 2005 Camry, the include grills will not work at all for the rear - go ahead and order OEM replacements for $20 a pair.

Great Speakers!

So I have yet to get a good listen to these speakers as I bought a box for them to sit in since my openings are for 6x8s. However since the grille on these speakers require such long screws I haven't been able to install them. I did hook them up just for a quick listen with the JBL 638 Counterpart and they sound amazing. DO NOT HESITATE TO BUY. These speakers were exactly what I was looking for aside from the the length of the screws needed.

RAM 2500

I got two pairs on sale in November and have had installed for a month now. Huge improvement! It's like hearing songs again for the first time. Highs are crisp but not too bright (can be adjusted 3db), mids are just right, I can hear vocals so much more clearly and the bass is much deeper and hits harder. I had to add sound deadening because the bass is causing rattles that weren't there before! I'll be adding an amp down the road, but they sound so good powered by the factory head unit (8.4), I'm not in any hurry now.

Great vocals, LOUD mid bass and great build quality!

Installed a set of these in a 2006 Impala LT, powered off 2-channels of a 4-channel amplifier. Very clean, crisp vocals and the mid bass was SOLID! Was able to reuse the factory elevated mounting pods. Used a drill bit to widen the mounting screw holes, on the speakers, to align with the factory mounting holes. You will need to use the included spacers, in order to stop the back deck cover from setting against the speaker. I had to use duct-tape to hold them in place. Once the cover was re-installed, its a tight fit and doesn't move.
