JL Audio C1-650x 6.5" 2-way Coaxial Car Audio Speakers #99042 - Pair
The JL Audio C1-650x are starter speakers like no other. After an extensive tour of JL Audio HQ, their engineering and development team talked about the current JL Audio lineup and upcoming projects. Given all the work they're doing with premium car audio, many were surprised by how excited they were for customers to hear their workhorse C1 Series speakers.
Designed for drivers simply looking for a sensible factory speaker replacement, not necessarily an audiophile-grade solution. Every JL Audio speaker must uphold the quality and sound associated with the name. You may be looking for something that's just listenable, but what you'll get with the JL Audio C1-650x is an audio experience that puts it at the top of its class. And then, just maybe, you'll end up being a JL Audio fan for life.
What sets C1 apart?
JL Audio designed the JL Audio C1-650x speakers to be the very best they could be for the price. You'll find solid construction and finish, along with some eye-popping flair in its striking yellow mineral-filled polypropylene woofer. That woofer delivers impactful lows and is specially designed for a natural roll-off transition to the highs handled by the tweeter. And it's the aluminum edge-driven tweeter that gives the C1 Series its distinctive sound, setting it apart from other speakers at this price. You'll hear crisp detail in the high frequencies, incredible imaging, and minimal distortion no matter how you power them.
Why no grilles?
Most folks have no use for aftermarket grilles, opting to use their factory grilles for a streamlined look. With that in mind, JL Audio doesn't include grilles with the JL Audio C1-650x, opting instead to incorporate those savings into building an all-round better speaker.
Highlights:
- 6.5" injection-molded mineral-filled polypropylene woofer cone with rubber surround
- 3/4" aluminum edge-driven dome tweeter
- handles up to 50 watts RMS (75 watts peak power)
- frequency response: 48-24,000 Hz
- sensitivity: 93 dB at 2.83 volts
- woofer top-mount depth: 2-1/16"

C1-650x speakers deliver real substance and great audio performance in a format designed for easy fit behind factory grilles. To facilitate fit, multi-application adaptor rings are included with the C1-650x allowing easy, drop-in installation in vehicles equipped with oversized 6.5-inch and 6.75-inch speaker openings. Without the ring, the speaker will fit into many "6-inch" speaker locations as well. C1-650x woofer drivers benefit from proprietary FEA modeling and JL Audio's expertise in low-frequency driver design. This knowledge is used to create speakers that can play loudly, while maintaining a smooth, dynamic, low distortion sound.
At the core of the C1-650x is a proprietary, stamped, steel 6.50-inch (165 mm) frame and a DMA-optimized motor system. A mineral-filled, injection-molded polypropylene cone is suspended with a rubber surround on the front, and a carefully engineered flat Conex® spider at the top of the voice coil, to precisely control the voice coil's motion. Tinsel leads are carefully routed and attached to the spider to prevent fatigue and buzzing. These are the same kinds of features and materials normally found on much more expensive loudspeakers.
Equipped with a true, edge-driven, aluminum dome tweeter, C1-650x speakers stand further apart from others in its category with superior high-frequency clarity and definition. The tweeter’s design has inherently excellent off-axis response and high-frequency extension. It also benefits from the damping of a silk surround suspension and Ferrofluid in the voice coil gap, along with the superior strength of a neodymium magnet circuit. A true, 2nd order high-pass filter is employed to further enhance smoothness and improve power handling. When it comes to value, C1-650x are the real deal! Sold as a pair. Grilles not available.
