JL Audio C1-650 6.5-inch (165 Mm) 2-way Component Speaker System
Product Overview
Extended 1+1 Year Brand Warranty
2-Way Component System: 6.5-inch (165 mm) Woofer, 0.75-inch (19 mm) Aluminum Dome Tweeter
C1 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 for the C1-650 woofers, allowing easy, drop-in installation in vehicles equipped with oversized 6.5-inch and 6.75-inch speaker openings. Without the ring, the woofers will also fit into many "6-inch" speaker locations as well. Surface and flush mounts are included with C1 tweeters for maximum installation versatility.
C1 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 C1-650 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 spiders 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 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. An in-line, outboard 2nd order high-pass filter, with Advanced Tweeter Protection Circuitry, is included to further enhance smoothness and improve power handling.
When it comes to value, C1 is the real deal!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Do I need an external amplifier to run the JL Audio C1-650 system?
A: The C1-650 speakers are high-efficiency drivers engineered to work exceptionally well directly off factory or aftermarket touchscreen head units. However, powering them with a dedicated 4-channel amplifier (rated between 30W to 75W RMS per channel) will unlock their full dynamic range and mid-bass output.
Q: What is included in the C1-650 package?
A: Each box contains a pair of 6.5-inch (165mm) woofer drivers, a pair of 0.75-inch aluminum dome tweeters with attached in-line crossovers, surface-mount and flush-mount tweeter cups, protective woofer grilles, and mounting hardware.
Q: Will the 6.5-inch woofers fit in my car's original door speaker locations?
A: Yes, the C1-650 woofers feature a shallow mounting depth and a standard 6.5-inch stamped steel frame designed to drop into most OEM door speaker openings or adaptors easily.
Q: Where is the best place to install the separate tweeters?
A: For the best soundstage elevation, mount the tweeters at ear level on your A-pillars, dashboard corners, or door sail panels using the included flush or surface mounting cups.
