Hertz C165L Cento Series 6.5" 240W 4-Ohm Component Woofers - Pair
Looking to upgrade your car audio with some serious low-end punch? The Hertz C165L component woofers are built to drop bass with control, clarity, and a natural feel that cheaper cones just can’t match. Right out the gate, these 6.5" drivers bring depth and detail to your system—and they don’t just boom, they breathe.
Crafted for Real Bass Lovers
Hertz didn’t mess around when designing the C165L. Instead of a flashy synthetic cone, they went with non-pressed paper—a material that’s as old-school as it is effective. Why? Because it delivers smooth, lifelike bass that doesn’t sound overly processed or artificial. It’s the kind of sound that makes you nod your head without even realizing it.
Pair that with a high-density flux ferrite magnet and you’ve got a woofer that stays clean, even when you’re pushing it. It’s not just about volume—it’s about keeping the bass tight, controlled, and distortion-free when things get loud.
Power That Stays in Control
At 240 watts peak (and 80 watts RMS), the Hertz C165L isn’t just loud—it’s smart about how it handles power. Thanks to the 25 mm aluminum voice coil and wide-stroke design, this woofer can flex hard without losing its grip. You’ll hear the difference in punchy drum kicks, rolling basslines, and the subtle rumble in tracks you’ve heard a hundred times before.
And with a 4-ohm impedance, it pairs well with most aftermarket amplifiers, giving you flexibility without sacrificing performance. It’s a simple match for common car audio setups—but with far from ordinary results.
Built Like It Means Business
Everything about this woofer screams durability and performance. The frame is a sleek, three-spoke basket that cuts out unnecessary weight and vibrations. There’s also a rubber magnet cover for damping out spurious noise, so what you hear is clean bass, not unwanted buzz.
Even the optional CG165 grille (sold separately) is designed with care—ABS plastic construction, metallic finish, and a tough metal mesh to keep things protected while still looking sharp.
Why the Hertz C165L Stands Out
You’re not just getting another woofer here—you’re getting a finely-tuned bass driver that brings your music to life with depth and clarity. Whether you're building a full Hertz system or just upgrading a pair of stock speakers, the C165L gives you a big audio boost without overcomplicating your setup.
