Description


Perfect Factory Replacement

It is absolutely possible to get a great sound out of a low powered system with the Boston Acoustics SE (Special Edition) Series speakers. These will bring out the layers and tones of your music as the artist intended. The SE65 speakers offer a naturally warm sound with the ability to get really loud while still maintaining clarity. With the dockable crossover, you will hear a smooth blend of music between the woofer and the tweeter. Since they are only 35 watts RMS, they run smoothly off your factory or aftermarket stereo without the need for an amplifier. These are the ultimate replacements for your stock door speakers!

These speakers feature a wide frequency response for full-range playback of your music. The tweeter motor is composed of light-weight neodymium for fast response and efficient handling. The 4 ohms impedance makes this speaker compatible with most head-unit's on the market today. They are engineered with a shallow depth design so they can fit into most 6-1/2" speaker cutouts.

Speaker Features:

  • 6-1/2" SE Series 2-Way Car Speakers
  • Power Handling:
    • Peak: 200 watts per set / 100 watts each side
    • RMS: 70 watts per set / 35 watts each side
  • Copolymer woofer cone
  • Butyl rubber surround
  • 3/4" Type-S3 carbon injected polymer soft dome tweeter
  • CATB (Contoured Asymmetrical Tweeter Baffle) improves off-axis response
  • Ferrofluid cooling for increased power handling
  • Neodymium tweeter motor structure
  • Separable and dockable crossovers
  • 4 ohm impedance
  • Frequency Response: 58-20,000 Hz
  • Top-mount depth: 2-1/2"
  • Metal mesh grille for optimum speaker protection
  • Authorized Internet Dealer
  • 1-year Manufacturer's warranty

i love the speakers

The best sound out of speakers i heard for the price. I bought these 6 months ago and loved every minute of it. I now have a new car and the first thing i did was install a new set front and rear.

Great sound!

These speakers have very clean, natural sound. They sound good when powered by a high-wattage CD player, but they sound great when powered by a separate amplifier. Beware of underpowering. If you are keeping your weak factory head unit, don't bother. Go get some $12 Auto Zone speakers, they will sound better with low power. But if you've got a little power to put on them, these are awesome. Get the speaker baffles, too.

Really good sound!

I was looking for a nice sounding 6 1/2 for my Pontiac Vibe. Actually have some low end now. Very happy with my purchase.
