Featuring a 165mm woofer and a 25mm dome tweeter, this set delivers impressive performance. The woofer's fabric cone and steel basket guarantee stable and clear bass reproduction. The tweeter's silk-fabric cone delivers precise highs. Thanks to a 3 ohm impedance, your amplifier benefits from increased output and thus better audio quality. The Masori Lowest Price Guarantee ensures you get the best price for the Gladen RS 165 G2. Whether passive or active, the included crossover optimizes the crossover frequencies and guarantees you the best sound!

The heart of the speaker: The 165mm woofer with fabric membrane and steel basket

The 165mm woofer of the Gladen RS 165 G2 is the heart of this speaker system. The fabric cone enables fast and precise movement, ensuring clean and detailed bass reproduction. The sturdy steel basket provides the speaker with the necessary strength and contributes to its longevity. The 25mm voice coil, mounted on an aluminum carrier, ensures effective heat dissipation, making the speaker more powerful and enabling it to reach higher volumes. Where other speakers distort at high volumes, this configuration of the Gladen RS 165 G2 offers clear and undisturbed reproduction. While a stronger basket material could provide additional stability, the steel basket used ensures an optimal balance between sound quality and weight.

Impressive audio quality with the 25mm tweeter unit

The 25mm tweeter unit determines the high-frequency detail of the speaker set. The high-quality silk-fabric cone ensures smooth and soft high-frequency reproduction. Kapton, the material used for the voice coil former, gives the tweeter excellent thermal stability and electrical insulation, which is especially important for high frequencies. With a 4-ohm impedance, the tweeter harmonizes perfectly with the system's woofer, ensuring a balanced sound. A lower impedance could lead to slight clipping. This configuration, however, ensures a clear and controlled high-frequency range.

Efficient frequency control through the passive crossover

The Gladen RS 165 G2 comes with a passive crossover that ensures optimal frequency transitions between the woofer and tweeter. This crossover is crucial for separating and managing the frequency ranges, with the tweeter only becoming active above a specific frequency. Compared to an active crossover, the passive version offers the advantage of no additional power consumption, allowing for easier handling and better integration into existing systems. An active crossover would allow for more precise adjustment of the crossovers, but at the expense of increased installation effort.

Technology optimization with Nomex centering spider

The Nomex spider in the Gladen RS 165 G2 offers exceptional flexibility and strength. Nomex ensures precise centering of the woofer cone while maintaining stability at high temperatures, which is essential for linear movement. This technological choice optimizes bass reproduction at maximum power and ensures no distortion even at very low frequencies. A different material could reduce costs, but it would sacrifice consistency and heat resistance, which would be problematic for listening to music at high volumes.

Optionally optimized by the Gladen PODs

The optional Gladen PODs offer a special feature for fine-tuning the soundstage. These allow the tweeters to be positioned to improve direct sound direction, which can result in an optimized soundstage. The PODs could allow for better adaptation to individual vehicle cabins, but are not absolutely necessary to achieve excellent sound.

The versatility of the RS 165 G2 for every vehicle

The Gladen RS 165 G2 is designed for both standardized installation positions and customized soundscapes. The removable plastic tweeter enclosure allows for flexibility in selecting the installation position. Both passive and active integration options contribute to application flexibility, while gold-plated screw terminals ensure simple and corrosion-resistant connections. However, if the installation positions are not suitable, the use of custom brackets may be necessary.

Power reserves: 2 x 150 / 100 watts load capacity

With a maximum power handling of 2 x 150 watts and an RMS output of 100 watts, the RS 165 G2 offers impressive power handling, designed for loud and clear music reproduction. High RMS values ​​guarantee consistent, distortion-free operation over extended periods, while the peak power is prepared for unexpected performance demands. A lower power handling would potentially cause the system to falter under full load, negatively impacting the sound.

Protection and durability through rubber magnetic protection

The rubber magnet shield on the Gladen RS 165 G2 provides an additional layer of protection that not only protects the speaker from mechanical damage but also ensures quiet, high-precision sound reproduction. This is especially important in vehicles with vibrations. Other systems often lack such protection, which can lead to component deterioration and a reduction in sound quality.
