Our take on the Pioneer TS-A6882R

Pioneer uses high-tech materials in their A-Series speakers so you can have powerful, high-quality sound in your car. The smooth response and extended high frequency range of these speakers produce a superior stereo image — almost like listening to a band play live.

The TS-A6882R 6"x8" speakers feature carbon graphite polypropylene woofers reinforced with Aramid fibers, a lightweight synthetic used in bullet-proof vests — they not only stand up to the stress of high-volume playback, they hit louder using less power. Butyl rubber surrounds help keep cone movement smooth and resilient, so the bass plays tight and clean.

The TS-A6882R 4-way speakers don't scrimp when it comes to the mids and highs either. Pioneer made the midrange drivers out of a special laminated polyester that's 30% lighter than conventional material, resulting in faster, more accurate reproduction of instruments and vocals. PET silver film dome tweeters and supertweeters deliver bright, sparkling treble, letting you experience all the overtones that bring ambiance and life to your music.

Our Product Research Team

At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere.

Features

Woofers: Each speaker features carbon graphite IMPP (Injection Molded Polypropylene) cone woofers interlaced with long Aramid fibers. This IMPP cone design provides the strength and rigidity powerful bass sound requires. The high-density, compressed internal architecture is resilient, stacks up against high power and transfers sound very quickly. The result is full-bodied, rich sound.

Surrounds: For durability and a smoother response, each woofer uses a butyl rubber surround.

Midranges: Each speaker uses a 1-1/2" balanced dome midrange with laminated polyester fiber which is 30% lighter than conventional materials. That difference in weight means faster and more accurate response, for exceptionally clean, detailed music. Each midrange also features a magnetic fluid and a neodymium magnet.

Tweeters: Each speaker uses a 1/2" silver PET film soft dome tweeter and a 3/8" silver PET film soft dome super-tweeter for crisp, clear highs.

Custom Fit: The 6x8" speaker's frame features two additional mounting holes which allows the speaker to fit in 5x7" openings of select Ford and Mazda vehicles.

Daaaaam!

Written By U Cant Guard Me....&1, Chitown on Friday, December 10, 2010
 
Plainly put, these speakers are vastly superior to most if not all 6x8's out there. If you drive
a Ford, you need to buy these right now! I had the Infinity 6820's front and back and they
were ok, didn't hold bass at all, could never really find the sweet spot. My setup consists of
modest gear, and Alpine head unit, Alpine KTP 445 amp, a 500 watt Kicker amp with 2
MTX 10" (avoid this amp at all costs)
Just running the 6x8's off the alpine KTP amp sounds better than I had imagined, the
highs are crisp, mids and bass are adequate, you won't win any awards but if you want
good sounds for not a lot of money this is an option. I will only buy Pioneer speakers from
now on, until somebody proves otherwise I know what a pain searching for the right setup
can be, so I hope this helps, and no, you still can't guard me.......&1

Pioneer TS-A6882R

Written By rod, detroit,mi on Saturday, September 18, 2010
 
these speakers are horrible. i've notice the positive reviews come from people running factory radios or replaced factory speakers. they may sound better than the original equipment, but if you're running amps, these are terrible. they don't sound clear and they distort at a relatively low volume. go w/the alpine type r!

Amazing

Written By , Wise, Va on Thursday, September 24, 2009
 
I ordered two pairs of these speakers for my F-150. They arrived the next
day with the wire connectors for the factory connection and complete
instuructions. I installed them myself in less than an hour using only a few
tools. They sound great, that's the bottom line. A rockin set of speakers at
a great price. I'd recommend these to anyone. The fact that they are an
exact fit for Ford and Mazda vehicles is also a bonus. Don't hesitate, you'll
be greatly satisfied with these!

Nice Sound but They Don't Fit

Written By Steven, Columbia, IL on Tuesday, July 21, 2009
 
I bought these based on Crutchfield's recommendation that they fit in a 2001 Ford Taurus front doors, but they do not. I can no longer roll the windows down all the way, they go down about 3/4 travel but then hit the speaker magnets. I previously had a pair of Polk 6 x 8's in there that fit fine but one eventually blew out so I chose these Pioneers as a replacement. These sound great and are a good value but unless I can shim them out somehow, I'm never going to be able to roll down the windows fully.

Sounds good so far. They are only powered by the factory head unit with no amp so who knows what the potential may be.

Great speakers!

Written By Kelly, The top of California on Monday, March 23, 2009
 
I put these speakers into an 01 Tacoma extracab and they sound so much better than the stock speakers that were in there! The stock speakers are fine, but these pick up so much more of the music that it sounds great. A little but more bass, which isn't really what I was after, but much more detail in the music. The installation was a bit of a pain, but still do-able. The instructions from Crutchfield list an 01 as an 02, but no big deal. One major issue that will make the installation run much smoother...take off the seatbelt retaining bolts!! The brackets stick up just enough to drive you insane while putting the body panel back up. Other than that, ran smooth and great sounding speakers!

1996 Ford Explorer

Written By lehman, Temple, TX on Wednesday, March 18, 2009
 
Bought 2 pair to replace the stock "Premium Speakers" that were installed in my Explorer. I was tired of listening to my wife say she did not like how distorted the music was with my Duel receiver was with the stock speakers. They were easy to install with the guide that Crutchfield sent with them, and easy to hook up with the wiring harness they also sent. It only took me about an hour to replace all 4. The hardest part was removing the door panels, but I have done it before to replace the power window motors, it was no big deal. They fit in the stock openings, and the screws lined up correctly with no problems. They now sound so much better, you can hear the full range of the music now. Granted, they are not built to "thump" with the heavy base, but I don't like my music that way anyway. If you want the base, then get a set of kickers, etc. But for everyday use they sound clear, and great. Anyone wanting to replace any stock Ford speakers I would recommend these to do the trick.

2000 Focus ZX3

Written By FocusUTG, Kitsap, WA on Friday, January 23, 2009
 
I installed these over a month ago in the front of my 2000 Ford Focus ZX3. The installation was smooth and easy. The sound was great lots of clear mid and high end without distortion at higher levels. I ended up buying duct insulation and insulating my doors, this almost doubled the bass and increased the sound quality quite a bit. Over all these are great speakers. Now for the bad (for some people). The bass is lacking. Without a sub I can hardly tell whether a bass is playing or the drum is kicking. if you dont care about hearing the full range get these, but I'd highly recommend finding another way to fill in the low end.

Pioneer TSA6882R Review

Written By Gene, Annapolis, MD on Thursday, November 27, 2008
 
Love these speakers, the highs and low tones are soo clear. I'm very happy with my product. Crutchfield sent the package quickly and I replaced my factory speakers as soon as it came. I would buy more if it would effect the sound but it is already crystal clear and almost too loud.
