Boston Acoustics

Our take on the Boston Acoustics SE35

by Jo Greene

If the dull, fuzzy music coming from your car's current system is making you dread getting trapped in traffic, a pair of Boston Acoustics SE speakers can transform your ride into a safe haven.

Boston Acoustics designed the SE35 3-1/2" 2-way speakers to make your favorite music sound clean and natural in your ride, and they use proven materials that'll stand up to life on the road. These speakers feature a sturdy copolymer woofer cone teamed up with a durable butyl rubber surround to deliver strong performance with minimal distortion. The carbon-injected polymer dome 3/4" tweeter gives you clear, focused highs that stay smooth, even when you turn the volume up.

The unique contoured tweeter plane guides high-frequency output to create a wider listening "sweet spot," so you'll hear more detail from the driver seat even if your speakers aren't firing directly at you. Boston's extensive research and testing pay off with accurate, consistent performance, so you can enjoy reliable, lifelike sound whenever you drive.

Highlights:

  • 2-way 3-1/2" speakers (pair)
  • copolymer woofer cone with butyl rubber surround
  • 3/4" carbon-injected polymer dome tweeter
  • power range: 2-35 watts RMS (70 watts peak power)
  • frequency response: 100-20,000 Hz
  • sensitivity: 92 dB

    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

    Tweeter: Each speaker uses a 3/4" carbon injected polymer Type-S3 dome tweeter with a neodymium motor structure. The Ferrofluid cooling increases power handling. Boston's CATB (Contoured Asymmetrical Tweeter Baffle) improves the off-axis response of the tweeter, and its asymmetrical shape makes the baffle acoustically invisible to the woofer, keeping the frequency response from the woofer flatter and smoother than conventional designs.

    Woofer: The copolymer woofer cone and durable butyl rubber surround stand up to the harsh automotive environment.

    Crossover: Each speaker in Boston's SE line features a specifically tuned crossover to deliver the best transition between the woofer and tweeter.

    Great little speakers that live up to the Boston name. These were the second set of dash speakers I bought. The first were too harsh. These sounded great and don't have ear piercing highs. Bass blockers recommended. Nice upgrade to my Jeep GC Boston factory sound system.

    Boston Acoustics SE35 - excellent upgrade

    Written By 99SAAB9-3, Evergreen, CO on Friday, March 30, 2012
    Installed in a 1999 Saab 9-3
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I already had upgraded dash speakers, which were fine, but since I was upgrading other components, I added these to the package. When I installed one speaker I compared it to the old speaker by switching the balance -- no comparison. The Bostons have excellent range with no distortions at very loud levels.

    Worthwhile Upgrade

    Written By Aaron, Southern NH on Friday, March 30, 2012
    Installed in a 2002 Saab 9-3
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    These 3.5" speakers are a vast improvement over the factory paper-cones installed in my '03 Saab convertible. The treble is clear and sharp, with a much wider high-frequency range even from the factory head unit. They dropped right in to the dash and installation took less than 10 minutes. I used 600 Hz bass blockers but I'm not sure they're really necessary. The mid-range response gets a little carried away at high volume levels. Part of the problem is that I have no adjustment for mids on my head unit, just bass and treble. But for $35, these are well worth five stars.
    Pros:
    Sensitive, clear-sounding speaker in a small package. Clear even at low volume with the factory head unit.
    Cons:
    Mids can be overpowering at high volume levels.

    Great upgrade

    Written By Jonty, Austin, TX on Thursday, March 29, 2012
    Installed in a 2010 Mazda CX-9
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I just installed these in our 2010 Mazda CX-9 with the Bose system. I was unsure if they would be well suited to the Bose amp driving the system, but they have proven to be a major improvement over the stock Bose speakers. These go in the dash (left, center, right) and rear "D" pillars, and provide SOOOO much more range of sound than the stock Bose. To date I've only replaced the dash left and right, but will put the rest in shortly. Great price too.
    Pros:
    Actually have tweeters, so now I can hear highs. Nice overall sound,
    Cons:
    Didn't quite drop in to right dash location - I had to dremel off a little plastic fin from the outside of the a/c duct, but that took maybe 5mins.

    Great sound, perfect fit

    Written By DemianG, Sierra Vista, AZ on Saturday, March 24, 2012
    Installed in a 2010 Dodge Ram 1500
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Installed these in my 2010 Ram with the Alpine system in the LF and RF locations. They fit perfectly (Cruchfield lists them as not fitting my truck) dropped them in with no modification to the location, hooked them up with wire harness that Crutchfield sent with them and the install took 10 min total! They have added a clarity and crispness to my music that the Alpine system is sorely lacking. I am now hearing ALL the music! Got these on a price break for 35 bucks.... that is a steal for how good these sound! My wife, who is a person that thinks the stock Alpine system in her 2011 Ram is perfect and the speakers in the TV are "good enough" listen to them right after i put them in and now wants me to put some in her truck!
    Pros:
    perfect fit, great sound, fantastic price
    Cons:
    none

    As good as a 3.5" can be

    Written By Anonymous, Fresno, CA on Friday, February 03, 2012
    Installed in a 2011 Jeep Patriot
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Installed easily in the rear hatch of a 2011 Jeep Patriot w/"Boston" system. Much better than the paper dual cone factory "Bostons". These speakers aren't going to solve world hunger or anything, because it's still just a 3 1/2", but the flip down tailgate speakers do sound much better now. Like an actual full range speaker should sound. Adds more treble than base of course. Second set of Boston 3 1/2" I've owned, first was 12 years ago in a '89 Cavalier Z24. I liked them then and I like them now.
    Pros:
    Clean treble, good looks, handles the 28 Watt factory amplifier perfectly. Fits perfectly in rear hatch of Jeep Patriot.
    Cons:
    None

    Very nice sharp sound out of this speaker. What took the most time was that I had to build a speaker holder ( platform ), to mount the speakers in the original spot in the dash for a 69 camaro. Didn't want to cut into my kick panels. So it worked out good. Just a little time consuming. And a word of advice; get bass blockers for these. You'll be glad you did. A must have . Just to be safe !
