About the Helix Esprit E6X
High fidelity with excellent imaging
Helix's German engineering pedigree really shows up in their Esprit Series speakers, which offer big technological bang for the buck. The E6X 6-3/4" speakers use an adjustable 3/4" silk dome tweeter that you can tilt and rotate to improve imaging in cars with less than optimal tweeter placement. Each speaker features a rigid 6-3/4" woven fiberglass cone that delivers tight midrange and bass reproduction, while the durable rubber surround helps this speaker provide exceptional sound for years to come.

Features
Woofer Materials: Each woofer cone is made of woven fiberglass and has a durable rubber surround. This woven fiberglass material is very light and extremely stiff, minimizing cone flex and resulting in faster transients and finer detail.
Tweeters: Each speaker has a 3/4" silk dome tweeter with a neodymium motor structure. The tweeters also rotate and can be tilted (up to approximately 25°) so you can direct them toward the listening positions.
Magnet cover: The E 6X are shipped with a rubber magnet cover to protect the speaker. If the cover is removed the depth changes slightly:
- Top Mount Depth: 2.467"
- Bottom Mount Depth: 2.627"
Size Classification Note: Crutchfield has traditionally referred to this size speaker as a 6-3/4", while some manufacturers, including Helix (Audiotec Fischer), call it a 6-1/2". Please refer to the Crutchfield Vehicle Selector to confirm fit in your vehicle.

Will fit in the rear doors of a 2012 Toyota Prius. There is ample room for them in the door using SAK036, 1/4" speaker adapters. UPDATED 2/4/13: The bass completely disappears when the temperature drops to around 15 degrees F.
