Our take on the Blaupunkt GTc652

Blaupunkt GT component systems combine modern design and high reliability in a hard-to-beat speaker value. The GTc652 component system teams together two 6-1/2" woofers and 2 tweeters with built-in crossovers in a package that offers good power handling and high efficiency. The result — they'll deliver big sound even without an amplifier.

The GTc652 6-1/2" component system features polypropylene woofers that deliver deep, accurate bass. Blaupunkt designs the woofer baskets to allow proper ventilation, so the voice coils stay cool for higher power handling. Mylar semi-dome tweeters reproduce the vocal and instrumental details smoothly and cleanly. Mounting hardware comes included in the box, so you can flush-, surface-, or angle-mount the tweeters to achieve great stereo imaging in your car.

Complete with designer grilles and chromium-plated tweeter rings, GTc652 components will bring out all the musical details that factory speakers miss — your music will sound almost as lifelike and natural as it does in concert.

Our Product Research Team

At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere. That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box, verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs. We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.

Features

Injected Polypropylene Cone Woofers: The Blaupunkt GT Series component speakers feature Injected Polypropylene cone woofers. The woofer cones are lightweight and mechanically rigid, allowing the speakers to play louder with less power than conventional paper cones. Injected Polypropylene cones are acoustically inert and do not add coloration to the original recording. Each woofer uses a foam surround.

Voice Coil Ventilation: The woofer baskets feature 12 holes which serve as additional voice coil ventilation. The extra ventilation helps keep the voice coil cool for higher power handling.

Mylar Tweeters: The GT series component speakers feature 1" Mylar semi-dome tweeters for clean, accurate highs. The tweeters feature a simple high-pass crossover (capacitor) mounted inside the tweeter frame.

Tweeter Mounting System: The supplied tweeter mounting system allows you to flush mount, surface mount, or angle surface mount the tweeters. The angle surface mount cups provides two possible mounting angles. The dimensions for the tweeters in each type of mount are:

  Surface-mount Flush-mount Angle Surface-Mount
(2 available positions)
Frame Diameter 1.793" 2.078" 1.792"(W), 1.833"(D) 1.792"(W), 1.8"(D)
Cutout Diameter N/A 1.722" N/A N/A
Mounting Height 1.106" 0.35" 1.39" 1.608"
Mounting Depth 0.489" (screw depth) 0.462" 0.489" (screw depth) 0.489" (screw depth)

Great Value

Written By Russell, Baltimore, MD on Tuesday, April 14, 2009
 
These speakers are a great value. The price is low and the performance is very good. They didn't fit my car without modification. I had to bend the ridges flat with pliers, use a hacksaw to cut notches, and then screw them into the factory screw holes in the doors. I had to cut and solder the tweeters in order for them to use the factory harness. The bass reproduction is great, and so are the highs. These aren't top-of-the-line but their very good performance for little cost makes them a great value for anyone looking for simple replacements. The modifications I had to make makes me give them only a 4-star rating. If they fit better out-of-the-box they would receive a 5-star rating.

Little less then what I thought

Written By Jay, West Warwick, RI on Wednesday, April 01, 2009
 
I was thinking that these were going to be a little more punchy but I was wrong. The Tweeters are great sounding. The Woofer on the other hand doesn't really bring much to the table. If I had to do it again I would have purchased one with a crossover box. But these speakers still do a good job just not a great job.

Great for price - especially when on sale

Written By Jeff, Orlando Florida on Saturday, January 31, 2009
 
Replaced stock Chevy Colorado speakers. Only problem is tweeter hole must be perfectly cut or it will not swivel - instead - fall back into door. Sound great.

Adequate

Written By Bryan, Charlotte, NC on Friday, January 02, 2009
 
Purchased these to replace the damaged OEM Infinity speakers in a 2002
Durango. They are crisper and cleaner than the OEMs at "normal" volume,
but distort quickly as the volume is turned up - more so than the OEMs. The
holes in the mounting brackets provided by Crutchfield did not line up with
the speakers and I had to drill new ones and one of the tabs was too long
and had to be cut off.

Good for the money

Written By Andrew, Stafford VA on Tuesday, December 09, 2008
 
Installed these in my 02 S2000. They do sound better than the factory speakers and tweeters, im powering them from my alpine 9883 receiver. Once they break in a bit im hoping to hear the full package. Overall, for a person on a budget, these fit the bill nicely and get the job done.
