6.5" (165 mm) Component Woofer (with Grille)


Born from shared technologies used in our flagship C7 speakers, the C6-650cw component woofer benefits from vast woofer design experience and advanced modeling systems of JL Audio.

Ideal for active systems, the C6-650cw component woofer features a proprietary cast alloy frame outfitted with our Elevated Frame Cooling™ technology and a DMA-optimized motor system to generate outstanding midbass impact with ultralow distortion.

Passive crossover networks are not included with C6 drivers, as they are designed for active systems. Instead, we recommend a high-quality tuning digital signal processor, such as the JL Audio TwK® DSP, or a VXi amplifier with built-in DSP, with a dedicated amplifier channel for each C6 loudspeaker in the system. Precise setup of equalization, delay and crossover filters will ensure optimal in-vehicle performance.

C6-650cw Component Woofer Features:
• Forged and machined motor plates with DMA-optimized geometries to create linear motor force under power, leading to outstanding midbass impact, linearity and low distortion
• Large diameter, linear profile, flat spider for linear compliance and outstanding excursion capability
• Center cap designed to optimize 
the high-frequency response of the woofer for seamless transition to a tweeter’s response
• Oversized voice coil for extended power handling capability, minimizing thermal compression and distortion at higher listening levels
• Cast 
alloy frame with our Elevated Frame Cooling feature
• Includes fine mesh grille

Design Bandwidth:
With 48 dB/octave filters: 55 Hz-6 kHz
With 24 dB/octave filters: 65 Hz-6 kHz
With 12 dB/octave filters: 80 Hz-6 kHz

Component woofers are sold individually and include a plastic grille tray, one fine steel mesh grille and one electroformed JL Audio badge logo.
