GETTING STARTED

•Turn off the audio system. It is also advisable to disconnect the negative (–) terminal of your vehicle’s battery whenever performing installation work.

•Before cutting, drilling or inserting any screw, check clearances on both sides of the planned mounting surface. Also check for any potential obstacles, such as window tracks and motors, wiring harnesses, etc. Check both sides of the

vehicle, many vehicles are not symmetrical!

•Always wear protective eyewear.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT CONSIDERATIONS

In most cases, your speakers will be placed into factory speaker locations. If you have some speaker mounting flexibility, keep the following in mind:

Lower mounting locations, such as the lower front corner of a door or a kick-panel provide the greatest path length distances for the sound emitted by the speakers. For this reason, they are generally more desirable than higher mounting locations. Higher mounting locations will usually result in extreme near-side soundstage bias which compromises the stereo listening experience.

C2-650x-06112008, C2-650x specifications

The JL Audio C2-650x is a premium 6.5-inch coaxial speaker designed to deliver exceptional sound quality and performance in any vehicle audio system. Launched on June 11, 2008, the C2-650x has since gained popularity among audiophiles due to its innovative engineering and quality craftsmanship.

At the heart of the C2-650x is its impressive speaker design, which features a robust polypropylene woofer cone. This material is not only lightweight but also rigid, allowing it to reproduce low frequencies with depth and clarity. The woofer is complemented by a durable rubber surround that promotes effective excursion, ensuring that the speaker can handle dynamic audio without distortion.

One of the key highlights of the C2-650x is its high-efficiency silk dome tweeter. This tweeter employs a neodymium magnet to provide superior sensitivity and a wide frequency response. With this design, the C2-650x can achieve crystal-clear highs that enhance the overall soundstage, making vocals and instrumentals more pronounced and lifelike. The tweeter also features a shallow mounting depth, allowing for easy installation in various vehicle types without sacrificing sound quality.

The speakers are engineered with a sophisticated crossover network that ensures a seamless transition between the woofer and tweeter frequencies. This design minimizes phase distortion, resulting in smoother audio delivery across the spectrum. The C2-650x also features a peak power handling capability of up to 400 watts, allowing it to handle a range of amplification without compromising performance or reliability.

Durability is another characteristic that sets the C2-650x apart from competitors. Its weather-resistant construction ensures that the speakers can withstand the rigors of a mobile environment, making them suitable for use in cars, boats, or even outdoor applications.

Overall, the JL Audio C2-650x is a striking combination of advanced materials, innovative design, and powerful performance. Whether you're an audio enthusiast looking to upgrade your sound system or simply seeking to enhance your daily driving experience, the C2-650x speakers offer an immersive listening experience that truly elevates your music to new heights. Their blend of reliability, efficiency, and sound quality solidifies their reputation as a top choice in the world of car audio.
