Speaker Size
Refers to the size of the speaker measured in inches. Every vehicle has standard application sizes. Please use our vehicle fitment guide for your vehicle's specific speaker sizes if you do not know them.
Design
The number of individual drivers in a car speaker. Speakers with 2 drivers are known as a 2-way, and 3 drivers are known as a 3-way. Component systems are often referred to as "separates" because the tweeter is not attached to the midwoofer (main speaker driver) and mounts separately in a location such as a door post. Component systems typically come with an external crossover so you can easily adjust the high and low frequencies sent to both the midwoofer and the tweeter. Center channel speakers are great for those looking to have surround sound in their vehicle.
RMS Power Handling
The RMS power is the amount of power the speaker requires to operate safely and properly. RMS Power Handling refers to the amount of power a speaker can handle on a continuous basis. We recommend powering your speakers or subwoofer with 80%-120% of its recommended RMS rating. The RMS power handling specification is typically rated per speaker unless otherwise noted.
Peak Power Handling
Peak power handling refers to the amount of power a speaker can handle during a brief musical burst. The RMS power range figure is a much more reliable rating for determining the speaker's power requirements. The Peak power handling specification is typically rated per speaker unless otherwise noted.
Sensitivity
An efficiency or sensitivity rating tells you how effectively a speaker converts power into sound. The higher the number, the more efficient the speaker and the louder it will play with the same input power. An efficient speaker helps you maximize your available power. Most sensitivity ratings measure the speaker's output with 1 watt of input, 1 meter from the speaker. Some speakers' sensitivity is measured with 2.83 volts of input, instead of 1 watt.
  Efficiency (1w/1m) is not an accurate indicator of a subwoofer's output capability and should not be used as a comparison to other speakers or subwoofers to determine which one is "louder".
Impedance (Per Voice Coil)
The load value (in ohms) that the speakers present to the amplifier per voice coil - the amount of resistance to the current flow. This is a key specification as subs wired in parallel or low impedances can create problems with your amplifier and potentially void all warranties. We encourage you to ask our support department prior to purchase if you do not understand which impedance level will suit your application best.
Shallow Mount Installation
This means that the subwoofer/speaker is designed to be installed in areas that do not have a lot of space. Shallow mount subwoofers are typically found under a seat or behind the seat in some trucks.

Shallow mount speakers will typically have a mounting depth of 2" or less, while shallow mount subwoofers will typically have a mounting depth of 3" or less.
Tweeter Design
Designs such as cone, dome, semi-dome, balanced dome, and whizzer are most popular. Cone tweeters are simple, efficient and typically are the most reasonably priced. Dome tweeters are used in most home speakers, and provide a smoother and more accurate sound. Semi-dome design is one with a dome placed inside a cone. A Balanced dome driver is a semi-dome with equal reproduction area given the cone and dome portions of the driver. A whizzer tweeter is a separate tweeter cone driven by the voice coil of the woofer.
Series
Many brands group their products into series or lines of products to help customers know the level of quality (good, better, best for example). You can filter by series and the brand using our guided browsing.

    FAQ Frequently asked questions in Discontinued 6x9" Speakers

    6x9" Speakers Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
    6x9" speakers are a type of car audio speaker known for their oval-shaped design and larger size compared to standard round speakers. These speakers are a popular choice for car audio enthusiasts due to their ability to produce powerful and clear sound. The larger surface area of the 6x9" speakers allows them to move more air, resulting in improved bass response and overall audio performance. Additionally, many 6x9" speakers come as a two-way or three-way design, with multiple drivers to handle different frequency ranges, further enhancing sound quality and clarity.
    Most vehicles can accommodate 6x9" speakers, but compatibility may vary depending on the make and model of your car. Before purchasing 6x9" speakers, it's essential to check the available space in your vehicle's speaker locations, typically found in the rear deck or doors. Ensure that the mounting depth of the speakers doesn't interfere with any vehicle components, and check if any speaker adapters or brackets are required for a proper fit. If you are unsure about compatibility, consult with a car audio specialist or use an online fitment tool to find speakers that will fit your specific car model.
    Upgrading to 6x9" speakers can significantly enhance your car audio experience. These speakers are designed to handle higher power levels, allowing you to achieve louder volumes without distortion. The improved bass response and midrange clarity provide a more balanced sound, making your favorite music tracks sound richer and more dynamic. Many 6x9" speakers also feature advanced materials such as polypropylene cones, silk or textile dome tweeters, and rubber surrounds, which contribute to better sound reproduction and increased speaker longevity. Whether you enjoy crisp highs, punchy mids, or deep lows, 6x9" speakers offer a versatile audio solution that elevates your driving experience.
    The installation of 6x9" speakers can vary in complexity depending on your car's make and model. If you have basic car audio installation experience and the necessary tools, you may be able to handle the installation yourself. However, some vehicles may require more involved installation procedures, such as removing panels or modifying speaker locations, and may benefit from professional installation. Professional installers have the expertise to ensure a secure and proper fit, preventing any damage to your vehicle's interior and ensuring optimal sound performance. If you are uncertain about the installation process or lack experience, it's best to seek the help of a car audio specialist to ensure a seamless and hassle-free upgrade.
    The power handling and sensitivity of 6x9" speakers can vary depending on the brand and model. Power handling refers to the maximum amount of power a speaker can handle without getting damaged. It is typically expressed in watts (W) and comes in two measurements: RMS (continuous power) and peak power (maximum power for short bursts). Sensitivity, on the other hand, measures how efficiently a speaker converts power into sound. Higher sensitivity ratings (measured in decibels or dB) mean the speaker requires less power to produce the same volume as a lower sensitivity speaker. When selecting 6x9" speakers, consider matching their power handling capabilities with your car audio system to ensure proper performance and avoid overdriving the speakers. Additionally, higher sensitivity speakers can work well with lower-powered head units, offering better sound quality at lower volumes.
