The RC 165 speaker from Gladen offers a nominal power of 2 x 125 watts and an RMS power of 85 watts. With its integrated 19 mm tweeter and 165 mm woofer, it delivers clear and powerful sound. The speaker has been designed for optimized audio playback and offers an impedance of 3 ohms, allowing for efficient power output. The woofer with a fabric diaphragm and steel basket supports strong, distortion-free bass.
The woofer of the RC 165 from Gladen consists of a robust fabric membrane and is held in shape by a stable steel basket. A 25 mm voice coil on an aluminum carrier ensures reliability and a higher load capacity. Nomex is used for centering, providing excellent restoring force. The rubber surround ensures flexible movement of the speaker. This combination of materials guarantees an ideal balance between stability and flexibility for optimal sound reproduction.
The RC 165 tweeter from Gladen impresses with its 19 mm silk fabric membrane, which produces soft and detailed high-frequency sounds. It features an internal high-frequency wire guide as well as a crossover that ensures clear separation of mids and highs. The voice coil is mounted on a Kapton carrier, which can handle high thermal loads. These technical features ensure precise sound reproduction and extend the lifespan of the speaker under various load conditions.
The Gladen RC 165 speaker has an impedance of 3 ohms, indicating a higher load capacity compared to the common 4-ohm speakers. A lower impedance allows the amplifier to deliver more current, resulting in louder and more dynamic audio playback. This feature makes it very efficient for use in various audio systems. Users should ensure that their amplifier is compatible with this impedance to achieve optimal performance.
The RC 165 from Gladen measures 165 mm in diameter, making it suitable for most standardized openings for vehicle speakers. Especially in older and classic vehicle models, adjustments may be necessary. Thanks to its universal 6.5-inch format and integrated design, the speaker is ideally suited for both aftermarket installation and original equipment applications. Before installation, the installation depths and opening dimensions of the target vehicle should be checked to ensure a good fit.
The fabric membrane of the RC 165 speaker from Gladen offers numerous acoustic advantages. It enables precise and detailed sound reproduction, especially at mid frequencies. The structure of the membrane dampens unwanted resonances and minimizes distortions, resulting in clearer audio quality. Additionally, fabric is known for its durable and stable construction, which means that the membrane retains its shape and performance even after intensive use. These characteristics make the speaker particularly attractive to audiophiles.
The rubber magnet protection on the RC 165 speaker from Gladen is another well-thought-out detail that increases its durability. This protection keeps the sensitive magnet safe from external influences such as dust and moisture that could impair its performance. This reduces the risk of material wear. At the same time, the rubber dampens unwanted vibrations that can arise from low-frequency sound waves, contributing to the preservation of sound quality. This combination extends the lifespan of the speaker and ensures stable sound.
The RC 165 from Gladen uses aluminum for the voice coil carrier in the woofer and Kapton in the tweeter to meet specific technical requirements. Aluminum is characterized by excellent thermal conductivity, which means that the heat generated during operation is efficiently dissipated to protect the coil from overheating. Kapton, on the other hand, has excellent insulating properties, making it thermally and mechanically very resilient. Both materials enable precise and durable performance of the speakers, even under intensive use.
The Nomex centering spider in the RC 165 from Gladen plays a central role in the sound quality of the speaker. It ensures precise and reliable return of the diaphragm to its starting position after a movement, which increases overall precision in sound reproduction. Nomex is known for its robust construction, ensuring lasting shape retention. This centering spider is particularly advantageous under high loads and volumes, where it reduces distortion and ensures consistent sound reproduction without overloading the speaker.
The steel sheet basket of the RC 165 speaker from Gladen provides a stable base for speaker mounting, ensuring structural integrity and vibration resistance. Steel sheet is the ideal choice due to its rigidity and strength to support the movement of the diaphragm during playback and suppress unwanted resonances. These properties contribute to a clear and uncolored sound image. Additionally, the basket allows for precise mounting of the speaker in vehicles and ensures a secure and firm attachment, which extends its lifespan.

Impressive 165 mm woofer with fabric membrane for optimal sound reproduction

The Gladen RC 165 coaxial speaker is equipped with a 165 mm woofer. This generous size allows for effective reproduction of low frequencies with full volume. The fabric cone is crucial for producing clear and resonance-free bass. Fabric cones are known for their rigidity and lightness, which prevent distortion while offering remarkable linearity in sound reproduction. Compared to other materials, the fabric enables excellent reproduction of low tones. The robust steel basket is also crucial for this, ensuring the stability of the cone support and reducing resonance.

19 mm tweeter with silk fabric membrane for crystal clear highs

The Gladen RC 165's 19 mm tweeter uses a silk-woven cone. This material is not only a hallmark of high-end audio components, but also guarantees accurate reproduction of high frequencies without harsh overtones. The silk provides a warm and natural sound. Furthermore, the internal tweeter braiding reduces unwanted frequency coloration and optimizes sound flow. Combined with an internal crossover, this allows for individual adjustment of the high-frequency ranges, ensuring precise sound reproduction within the vehicle interior.

Powerful 25 mm woofer voice coil for sustained performance

The Gladen RC 165 woofer's voice coil has a 25 mm diameter and is wound on an aluminum core known for its high thermal conductivity. This property reduces thermal compression and allows the speaker to operate consistently even at high volumes. A thicker voice coil could limit performance, while a thinner construction might result in insufficient thermal efficiency.

Robust construction with Nomex centering spider and rubber bead

The structure of this coaxial speaker is reinforced by the Nomex spider, a component known for its dimensional stability and heat resistance. Nomex is an engineered material characterized by excellent elasticity, allowing the speaker to remain controlled even at maximum excursion. The rubber surround also contributes to the flexible movement of the cone and provides protection against dust and moisture, while also dampening the movement to minimize unwanted resonances.

Innovative internal tweeter wire routing for optimized performance

The Gladen RC 165's internal tweeter routing noticeably improves sound quality by optimizing the electrical connection. This results in more consistent current transfer, which in the audio world contributes to more precise sound tuning. With clean wire routing, the listener experiences improved transient response, meaning rapid, dynamic changes in the music are heard more clearly and distinctly.

Adjustable and advanced tweeter crossover

One of the Gladen RC 165's strengths is its integrated crossover, which allows for customized high-frequency tuning. These adjustment options allow the audio output to be precisely calibrated to the vehicle's acoustic environment, achieving optimal sound quality. While a speaker without a crossover would often be limited in sound quality, the crossover here ensures targeted selection and distribution of frequencies.

High-quality Kapton carrier of the tweeter voice coil

The 19 mm tweeter uses Kapton as the voice coil support material. Kapton is valued among audio engineers for its ability to withstand high temperatures, ensuring the speaker's reliability and endurance in demanding acoustic environments. In lower-quality speakers, other materials could lead to faster fatigue, which Kapton's excellent thermal properties prevent.
