The HX 165 PHASE EVO3 from Audio System impresses with extremely clear and precise reproduction, which is particularly due to its refined technology. Especially if you enjoy listening to music at high volumes, you will be thrilled by the powerful kick bass and the detailed highs. The 2-way system is equipped with high-quality neodymium magnets that allow for high efficiency. This ensures that sound details remain clearly defined even at higher volumes. Another advantage lies in the impedance of 3 ohms, which gives the speakers even more headroom for performance. Thanks to the solid mid-bass drivers combined with the cleverly positioned phase plug, you benefit from a remarkable soundstage and a very focused sound image. The result is a powerful, dynamic, and yet harmonious musical experience that will excite you anew every day. You can find more background information about the manufacturer Audio System in our brand ABC.

The phase plug of the HX 165 PHASE EVO3 is a sophisticated component that you should not underestimate. It ensures that the sound waves from the mid-bass driver are radiated more evenly and do not converge at a single point. This results in fewer interferences, significantly improving sound quality. Especially at higher frequencies, the phase plug allows for a more precise alignment of the sound, so the entire system benefits from more transparent mids and a clear soundstage representation. The music sounds more direct and natural at the same time. If you are looking for a high-end car tweeter that works harmoniously with the mid-bass driver, you will definitely achieve an improvement in your sound with the HX 165 PHASE EVO3. Our guide section provides further details on this technology and shows how Audio System successfully implements it.

Neodymium magnets are known for their strength in a relatively small size. In this passive 2-way system from Audio System, they allow you to achieve high power density without the speaker becoming excessively large or taking up much space. Since the HX 165 PHASE EVO3 is specifically designed for use in vehicles, it benefits from this very design. The powerful magnet ensures a tight and precise kick bass, which is particularly noticeable with modern music or energetic tracks. At the same time, the neodymium material supports controlled movement of the diaphragm, allowing you to achieve clean and distortion-free playback. In combination with the clever interplay of the tweeter and mid-bass driver, you get a harmonious sound experience that delights you anew every day.

An impedance of 3 ohms in the HX 165 PHASE EVO3 means that the speaker draws more power from your amplifier than comparable models with, for example, 4 ohms. This can provide you with a significant sonic advantage: With the increased power consumption, you benefit from a higher volume without losing details or clarity. This is particularly exciting when you want to crank it up to enjoy the rich kick bass. At the same time, Audio System ensured during development that the components work efficiently together despite the lower impedance, so the sound is presented not only loud but also balanced. So if you're looking for a set that performs confidently even at higher volumes, the HX 165 PHASE EVO3 is an ideal choice. You can find more background information on our info page.

The installation of the HX 165 PHASE EVO3 is particularly easy and space-saving thanks to a mounting depth of just 67 mm. Especially in vehicles where you have little room in the door area or with the panels, this 6.5" (16.5cm) speaker set is ideal. The thoughtful design utilizes compact neodymium magnets to provide you with impressive performance despite smaller dimensions. This means you don't have to make many modifications to achieve a rich, balanced sound. Whether you want to upgrade your car or simply enjoy better sound in everyday life – this system can be universally integrated thanks to its dimensions. Our blog offers more tips on how to approach the installation step by step.

The RMS specification for speakers like the HX 165 PHASE EVO3 is 175 watts per channel, which represents a realistic value for continuous use. RMS stands for "Root Mean Square" and refers to the sustainable power that can be delivered without sound degradation or overheating. This means you can listen to your music loudly for extended periods without distortion creeping in or the components being excessively stressed. The actual maximum power of 250 watts per channel underscores the performance capability of this system, but it should only be pushed to its limits briefly. In our technical section, you will find more information on choosing the right amplifier for the HX 165 PHASE EVO3.

When integrating the HX 165 PHASE EVO3 into common European brands like BMW, Audi, Mercedes, or VW, it is essential to check the available installation depth and mounting diameter in the doors or installation openings. However, since the set has an installation depth of only 67 mm and a mounting diameter of 146 mm, it fits into many models without major adjustments. You should ensure that the door volume is sufficient to optimally utilize the kick bass. Additionally, the impedance of 3 ohms works well with modern amplifiers that are often installed in higher-end vehicles. A look into technical forums or our knowledge archive will show you how other enthusiasts have already installed the set.

The Car Audio tweeter in the HX 165 PHASE EVO3, also referred to as a high-end car tweeter, has been specifically tuned to work seamlessly with the mid-bass driver. Thanks to carefully selected crossover frequencies and a passive crossover, a balanced sound image is created that reproduces highs without harshness while maintaining a punchy midrange. Especially if you enjoy listening to rock, pop, or electronic music, you will appreciate the clear presence of voices and instruments. The clean transition between the tweeter and mid-bass driver is particularly prominent in acoustic recordings, where you can perceive the smallest details. The system remains controlled at all times, providing you with an authentic listening experience. You can find more information about types of tweeters on our topic page for Ring Radiator Tweeters.

The passive 2-way design in the HX 165 PHASE EVO3 is a crucial element for a balanced sound spectrum. A carefully constructed Crossover separates the lows and highs, allowing each driver to cover only the frequency range it can reproduce best. This results in clear playback across the entire audible range, without frequency overlap. Especially when you want to hear every nuance in the highs at high volume, this division proves to be particularly advantageous. The set delivers impressive dynamics and detail that will delight even discerning listeners. Thanks to the meticulous tuning, the passive system offers you an intense and authentic music reproduction – completely without external digital signal processors. You can learn more about this on our info page about passive Crossovers.

The HX 165 PHASE EVO3 offers you a successful combination of power, compactness, and intelligent technology. On one hand, the impedance of 3 ohms allows for more power at the same amplifier output, giving your sound a strong boost. On the other hand, the robust mid-bass drivers with neodymium magnets ensure a strong kick bass, which is particularly beneficial for bass-heavy tracks or electronic music. Together with the perfectly matched high-end car Tweeter, you experience a balanced sound image that excites you with clear highs and rich lows. And despite its power, the system is particularly space-saving due to its installation depth of 67 mm. If you are looking for a modern solution for your car that plays both powerfully and with detail, the HX 165 PHASE EVO3 is the right choice.
