Everything about 6.5 inch speaker sets
6.5 speaker sets describe the size of the woofer in them with a diameter of 6.5 inches, which is the equivalent of 16.5 cm. The term 6.5 front system set is sometimes used colloquially, but should not be confused with other terms from the audio world, such as a
5.1 surround system , thrown into the same pot
. While the 5.1 surround system describes the channels, the 6.5 inch front system set is about the outer diameter of the components, in this case the woofer. The 6.5 inch speaker set is the standard size, and is also available as a 2-way or 3-way set with and without crossovers. For the most part, the 6.5 inch speaker set is the standard in most cars. Renowned manufacturers such as JL Audio, Vibe Audio and Blam provide high-quality models.
Blam, for example, presents a 6.5 inch speaker set , consisting of:
two 6.5" woofers two 20 mm soft dome tweeters two extra crossovers and high-pass 6dB filtering This is a "highly sensitive" 16.5 cm speaker set in a two-way design. The technical details are quite interesting and typical for this type of design:

Are 2-way or 3-way speaker sets better?
Buying the right speakers is not always easy. Which set is better, the 2-way or the 3-way speaker set? The difference is the number of speakers. The frequency range for 3-way speaker sets is determined by high, mid and
woofer while two-way speakers only contain a tweeter and a woofer, which also has to reproduce bass. The 2-way speakers are not very complex to install. Logically, 2-way sets have fewer speakers, so low tones cannot always be transmitted intensively. These should therefore definitely be supported by a subwoofer. According to experts, it is not only the number of membranes that matters, but also the
interaction of the membranes and housing . Many people find the sound of the 2-way sets more pleasant, as only two frequency ranges are active and ensure that the sound is more harmonious. In 2-way speaker sets, the
tweeter the high frequency range, the woofer is responsible for the low frequencies and ensures the unsurpassed sound. The speaker sets generally consist of two tweeters each, crossovers (if it is a so-called passive speaker set), woofers and
midrange speakers With 3-way sets, however, you get a pair of tweeters, midrange speakers and woofers. Optionally with or without a crossover. These sets are often used in very complex installations in order to achieve maximum sound performance in the car.
What should be considered when purchasing?
As already mentioned, the 6.5 speaker set is the most common.The diameter of the speakers is fundamentally crucial because the components must be able to be installed in the original installation positions with little or only slight adjustments in order to maintain the interior appearance of the vehicle.
