Buy online: Rockford Fosgate TMS6SG full-range speakers for Harley-Davidson motorcycles

If you want to experience the ultimate motorcycle sound, then the Rockford Fosgate TMS6SG is just what you need. These 6.5-inch motorcycle woofers perform particularly well on Harley-Davidson® Electra Glide and Street Glide models from 1998 to 2013. With a maximum power handling of 150 watts and an RMS power handling of 75 watts, they deliver powerful sound with optimal efficiency. Thanks to the Elements Ready design, their wind and water-resistant properties are maintained for a long time. The Rockford Fosgate TMS6SG full-range speaker set is backed by masori.de's lowest price guarantee; every product is available at the lowest price from us.

The sophisticated resonance frequency of the 6.5 woofer optimizes the sound

The 6.5-inch midrange driver of the Rockford Fosgate TMS6SG covers an impressive frequency response of 56 Hz to 20 kHz. This bandwidth enables detailed sound reproduction across the entire audible spectrum. A low resonant frequency means the speaker is capable of efficiently reproducing deep bass. Higher frequencies bring clear and bright highs to the forefront, sounding brilliant even when driving with the roof down. A lower resonant frequency would deliver more bass but could cause clipping at higher volumes, while a higher value would limit the low-frequency range.

Performance optimization through carbon fiber reinforced polypropylene

The TMS6SG's diaphragm is made of carbon fiber-reinforced polypropylene, known for its excellent material properties. This material combines lightness with rigidity, resulting in precise diaphragm vibration. This minimizes distortion, even at high volumes, and achieves clear sound across the entire frequency spectrum. Compared to alternative materials, this diaphragm structure offers increased resistance to moisture and sunlight, making it particularly suitable for use on motorcycles. A less rigid diaphragm could result in imprecise sound, while an even stiffer material could compromise the midrange frequencies.

Tweeter technology: Neodymium tweeter with phase plug

The TMS6SG's ultra-efficient 25 mm film dome tweeter utilizes a proprietary neodymium magnet to ensure smooth high-frequency reproduction. The integrated phase plug improves directional control and minimizes interference, resulting in a clean and focused high-frequency image. This technology ensures that high frequencies can be heard clearly and distinctly, even over engine noise. A stronger magnet could further increase the tweeter's efficiency, but at the potential cost of increased material, while a weaker magnet would negatively impact sensitivity, potentially resulting in loss of detail in the sound reproduction.

Integrated tweeter crossover for optimized performance

The built-in 6 dB crossover in the Rockford Fosgate TMS6SG ensures optimal distribution of musical signals between the midrange and tweeter. The ratio of mid- to high frequencies is finely tuned to avoid distortion and improve sound clarity. Equipped with a high-performance polyester capacitor, signals are transmitted precisely and losslessly. A more powerful crossover could further lower the crossover frequency and make the sound even more homogeneous, but at the expense of overall power handling. A lower crossover frequency would emphasize the midrange more, while a higher one would allow less bass to pass through.

Optimal connection solution: Flat coaxial cable integration

To ensure the installation is as unobtrusive as possible, the TMS6SG utilizes a flat, hidden coaxial tweeter cable. This integration not only means that connection is quick and easy, but also that there are no loose ends or visible cables to spoil the visual appeal. The discreet routing also improves resistance to the elements, as there is less surface area for moisture and UV radiation to penetrate. This significantly minimizes the risk of corrosion and wear. A different cable arrangement might offer easier installation, but at the expense of discreetness and durability.

Poly-cotton beading for controlled movement

Another technical highlight of the TMS6SG is the polycotton spider, which ensures precise control of the diaphragm's movement. This structure ensures even distribution of tensile and compressive forces on the diaphragm, resulting in significantly reduced distortion. This improves the sound and extends the lifespan of the speakers. A stiffer spider could inhibit movement more effectively, thus ensuring greater stability in extreme ranges of motion, at the expense of dynamics. A more flexible spider would promote possible distortion but could increase bass dynamics.

ASA grid and Santoprene for extended durability

The ASA grille of the TMS6SG forms a protective barrier that combines both style and functionality. Additionally, the Santoprene surround not only protects against environmental influences but also aids in vibration dampening, giving the speaker a particularly robust construction. These materials are durable and weather-resistant, which is crucial in the harsh environment of a motorcycle. Less robust materials would mean a shorter lifespan and less resistance to external influences, which could compromise the acoustic performance in the long run.

Accessories and installation kits for easy upgrade

To make installation and upgrades as user-friendly as possible, Rockford Fosgate supplies the TMS6SG with custom-fit speaker grilles and a comprehensive hardware package. This makes installation particularly quick and easy, even without specialized modifications. This fit, especially on Harley-Davidson® models, ensures silent enjoyment. However, if you plan to install other model variants, additional adjustments may be necessary for optimal volume distribution.
