JBL

Why replace your car's original speakers?

The speakers that originally came in your car were made from inexpensive materials, designed to create acceptable sound at the lowest possible cost to the manufacturer. If you love music, you deserve better. Name-brand aftermarket speakers deliver fuller, richer sound with considerably more detail and nuance, and they're capable of playing louder and cleaner than factory speakers. Connect new speakers to your factory radio and you'll get the best possible sound from your dealer-equipped system. Pair them up with a new car stereo for a level of enjoyment that can rival a high-fidelity home audio experience.

Our take on the JBL GT6-6

by Ken Nail

If you want speakers that'll make the most out of the power they're given, JBL's GT6 Series speakers are a smart way to go. They're sensitive enough to perk up the sound of a factory radio, but tough enough to handle an outboard amplifier too. These JBLs will impress you with their powerful bass, clear highs, and strong output.

Oversized cones, powerful tweeters
The GT6-6 2-way speakers employ 6-1/2" Plus One polypropylene woofer cones — with 30% more surface area than most other 6-3/4" speakers — to dish out the lows with accuracy and strength. The vented motor design keeps the speaker cool and operating efficiently when you've got the volume cranked. Each 1" titanium-laminate tweeter projects highs that'll sparkle over the sound of road and wind noise.

Highlights:

  • 2-way 6-3/4" speakers (pair)
  • Plus One design polypropylene woofer
  • foam surround
  • titanium laminate tweeter
  • grilles with magnetic JBL badges included
  • power handling: 2-45 watts RMS (135 watts peak power)
  • frequency response: 55-20,000 Hz
  • sensitivity: 93 dB
  • depth: 2-7/16"
  • warranty: 1 year

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

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.

    Features

    Plus One Woofer Cones: Each speaker uses a larger cone than other speakers of the same size. This is accomplished by using a unique basket design and hi-roll surround. The Plus One design offers greater bass output and an increase in efficiency.

    Mounting: JBL refers to the GT6-6 as a 6-1/2" speaker. The 5.63" cutout diameter, however, fits the industry standard for a 6-3/4" speaker. Please confirm fit using the Crutchfield Vehicle Selector before purchasing.

    Titanium Laminate Diaphragm Tweeters: Each speaker uses a titanium laminate diaphragm tweeter for fast transient highs with lower distortion.

    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    The speakers fit great in my sons 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Fit the openings perfect just had to drill new holes for the screws, no big deal. They sound great with the Alpine deck, they are tight but could use a little more bass, but they sound great for the price!
    Pros:
    Overall sound is great, nice and tight.
    Cons:
    A little short on the deep bass.

    Great speakers for the price

    Written By Michael, Hallsville, TX on Friday, March 29, 2013
    Installed in a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Speakers sound great in my Chevy 1500. Factory stereo pushes them well. Only noticeable difference from factory speakers is a little bit tighter bass. Only issue I had was one of the speakers wires that goes to the voice coil were touching and shorting out. I separated them with a screwdriver and haven't had an issue since. The bracket for the Chevy worked great just wished they would have supplied screws to mount the speaker to the adapter. After reading other reviews I added some weather stripping tape between the bracket and the door panel to keep it nice and tight.
    Pros:
    Great sound for a factory stereo
    Cons:
    Terminal wires touching

    Fantastic upgrade!

    Written By Ben, Lenexa, KS on Friday, March 29, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    These speakers were a fantastic upgrade from my factory speakers. The bass is much more full. I really notice better sound quality in the midrange. Much more crisp.
    Pros:
    Fuller bass, crisper mids and highs. Installation in my Silverado was super easy with the supplied bracket.
    Cons:
    None so far.

    1996 Grand Cherokee

    Written By Chester, Chicago,IL on Tuesday, March 19, 2013
    Installed in a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I recently purchased A pair of JBL GT6-6 speaker for the front of my truck. The sounded kind of good but the rear needed to be replaced as well. So i purchased another set. They all installed very quickly and easily. I already know a little about stereos and installation. But Crutchfield also included panel removal, stereo and speaker removal instructions and free speaker wiring harnesses. The service level is great from Crutchfield my stereo sounds so good now. 10 times better. eventually i will use Crutchfield prouducts again to upgrade to an amp and subwoofer. Thanks Crutchfield!
    Pros:
    The speakers fitment was well with little alteration. I only had to re-drill mounting holes.
    Cons:
    Compared to what my system sounded like. I have no complaints

    Totally Satisfied

    Written By Ben, Hansville,Wa on Monday, October 15, 2012
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    These speakers were exactly as advertised. Great sound at a reasonable price. They fit my Grand Cherokee speaker holes as promised and only required drilling of new holes. Piece of cake. It took more time to remove the door panels than mount the speakers and hook up with supplied wire harness adapter. I have purchased several items over the years and can't say enough about Crutchfield's products and service. I price checked these speakers elswhere online and couldn't find a better price, but even if I had I would have purchased here due to customer support and ease of installation with instructions and wiring adapters supplied at no extra charge! I even saved a few bucks by purchasing from "scratch and dent", which meant the corner of the cardboard box was wrinkled, that's it!
    Pros:
    Awesome sound with clear crisp highs and good base response. With an older Pioneer Super Tuner 111 driving 4 of these door speakers, its all the sound these middle age ears want and more!
    Cons:
    Zero

    Great sounding speakers

    Written By Salvador, Long beach on Monday, September 10, 2012
     
    Great sounding speakers. They capture the highs really well, i dont know about lows since i have a subwoofer but all together great quality for the price. My only complaint is the mounting hole dont look the same as in the display photo. They have 4 small handles that stick out which made them a little difficult to mount in my 2001 civic door. They fit better in my rear deck
    Pros:
    Great sounding, good quality
    Cons:
    Mounting not the same as photo

    Better than stock speakers but not top quality. The speaker is not very heavy. I also ordered polk 650s which was far superior than JBL. Speakers did not fit in correctly on the mounting brackets.

    Very Impressed

    Written By RSOBS, Cleveland, OH on Monday, August 13, 2012
     
    Really impressed. Crutchfield associated talked me into these as a match for a JVC double-din head unit. I've owned lots of car speakers, but these rank among the very best I've ever owned. For the price, unbelievable value with my head unit.
    Pros:
    Super sound, imaging, not overly bright. Great midrange.
    Cons:
    Probably not as much bass as one would expect with a larger speaker, but adequate for sure.

    Upgrade speakers for 97 Camaro convertible

    Written By David, St. Charles, MO on Tuesday, August 07, 2012
    Installed in a 1997 Chevrolet Camaro
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I was looking to upgrade the factory speakers in my 97 Camaro convertible and found these JBL GT6-6 speakers to be a good value. I've already got some JBL home speakers that have sounded great for years, so I decided to go with these instead of trying another brand. Of course, the JBLs sound much better than the original speakers. I installed this pair in the doors without any problems at all. I'm considering getting another set for the rear panels, after I make sure that they will fit. There's less mounting depth available there because of the convertible top linkage.
    Pros:
    Easy installation, perfect replacement for the factory speakers.
    Cons:
    Decent bass, but not a thumper.

    Good speakers

    Written By Paul, Disputanta, VA on Tuesday, June 26, 2012
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Very good speakers for the price. I installed two sets of these in my crappy mk3 jetta a while back with a jvc stereo and loved it. I would add a low wattage 4 way amp (45 rms x 4 would be best) to get the best clarity out of louder volumes. Unfortunately after spending a total of around $500 on my sound system im selling my jetta and I got a 2007 tacoma standard cab.... I intend on going all out on the sound system for my new truck!
    Pros:
    Great price, very clear sound, good enough bass
    Cons:
    none

    JBL GT6-6

    Written By Herman C., Houston, Texas on Friday, April 06, 2012
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Excellent bold low frequency sound and good mid to high. This 6 3/4" rear door speaker had to compliment high quality 6x9 front door speakers in a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee and they completely passed the test. They gave a clean bold presence from the rear to match the larger front speakers. I was completely satified with their sound quality. Thanks goes to the Cruthfield rep for making this suggestion to me, it was great decision. I now have the best sound in my car I've ever experienced.
    Pros:
    Top quality speaker with great sound reprodution and a bold clean bass response.
    Cons:
    None
