JL Audio C2-650 Component Speaker
Product Overview
The JL Audio C2-650 is a high-performance 6.5-inch 2-way component speaker set rating at 60 Watts RMS per channel continuous power handling. Designed to significantly upgrade your vehicle's factory sound system, this setup separates the low and high frequencies into independent drivers to create a detailed, ear-level soundstage across the front cabin.
Precision Woofers & Silk Dome Tweeters
The system pairs long-excursion $6.5\text{-inch}$ woofers built with mineral-filled polypropylene cones and stamped steel frames with $0.75\text{-inch}$ silk dome tweeters. This combination provides smooth high-frequency response, crisp vocal clarity, and punchy mid-bass performance without distortion at high listening levels.
Compact Crossover Networks with Tweeter Control
Outboard crossover networks feature high-grade Mylar capacitors and air-core inductors. To simplify installation in vehicle door panels, the crossovers maintain a compact footprint and offer 3 levels of tweeter output attenuation ($0\text{ dB}$, $-2\text{ dB}$, $-4\text{ dB}$) plus integrated thermal protection.
Extended 1+1 Year Brand Warranty
The Evolution C2 systems deliver sparkling high-frequency detail, smooth mid-range and powerful mid-bass, thanks to real silk dome tweeters and long linear excursion woofer designs.
2-Way Component System: 6.5-inch (165 mm) Woofer, 0.75-inch (19 mm) Silk Dome Tweeter
The C2-650 system features 6.5-inch (165 mm) component woofers with mineral-filled polypropylene cones, long excursion capabilities and stamped steel frames. The woofer design benefits from JL Audio's vast woofer design experience and advanced modeling systems.
The 6.5-inch (165 mm) format is a direct fit in many vehicles. Multiple mounting patterns are provided on the woofer frame for easy installation into most vehicles that accept a 6.5-inch (165 mm) speaker.
The C2 component tweeters are built with 0.75-inch silk dome diaphragms that deliver smooth, extended response, on and off axis. Flush-mounting and surface-mounting fixtures are included to fit a wide variety of installation needs.
C2 crossover networks are compact and built with premium component parts, including Mylar® capacitors and segmented air-core inductors. Three levels of tweeter attenuation are provided, as well as a tweeter protector.
Woofer grilles are included, each consisting of a black grille tray with satin silver accents and a black steel mesh grille with an electroformed JL Audio logo.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I run these 60W RMS speakers directly off my factory car stereo?
A: Yes, the high efficiency rating ($91\text{ dB}$) allows these speakers to run directly off a factory radio or aftermarket receiver. However, pairing them with an external amplifier supplying 50 to 75 Watts RMS per channel will unleash their full dynamic potential and mid-bass capability.
Q: How do I select the tweeter volume level on the crossovers?
A: The crossover circuit boards feature adjustable jumpers or switch tabs marked $0\text{ dB}$, $-2\text{ dB}$, and $-4\text{ dB}$. If your tweeters are mounted high on the A-pillar close to your ears, setting the switch to $-2\text{ dB}$ or $-4\text{ dB}$ helps tame excessive brightness.
Q: Are mounting accessories included for installing the tweeters?
A: Yes, JL Audio includes both flush-mounting and surface-mounting fixtures in the box, making it easy to mount the tweeters into factory sail panels, dash locations, or A-pillar trims.
