(More customer reviews)Like the title says, these speakers have just the right frequencies boosted to make them appear to car audio enthusiasts to have "clear" and "clean" sound. What I'm referring to is simply a boosted high frequency (6khz-16khz) response. I originally bought these to replace the poor-sounding paper cones in my home stereo. They really bring the music to life with their array of 3 tweeters. The 3/4" tweeter, Rockford will refer to as a "titanium composite midrange", but it is no more than the third tweeter in the the three-way crossover network.
6x9 oval speaker cones are notorious for causing unnecessary distortion when driven to high volumes, but these cones appear to have very good integrity and tensile strength to keep the distortion due to its shape kept to a minimum. The rubber surround around the cone has good excursion and should provide many years of reliable operation, even in the harsh environs of a car.
Now I have these installed in the rear deck of a Honda Civic. All I can say is that these were made to sound good in a noisy car. No adjustment is needed of the high band on the EQ at all. The old 1 way cones needed to have the high band cranked up to three quarters to hear cymbals and other high frequencies out of them. The bass is marginally better than the old speakers due to the higher excursion and better cone radiating area.
These are a clear, loud, and quality pair of speakers for around sixty dinero. Although, I would recommend 6.5" speakers in a 6x9 location now because they are cheaper and have less distortion due to the circular shape. The upshot is that these offer decent bass performance.
