Overview Details Customer Reviews Category Info Accessories Our take on the Boston Acoustics SX95 by Ken Nail 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. The clear, well-balanced sound of Boston's SX speakers offers an excellent performance boost to almost any car audio system. The SX95 6"x9" speaker combines two Type-S2 tweeters with a heavy duty copolymer woofer and a durable rubber surround. A contoured tweeter plane provides an extended stereo "sweet spot" for smooth, realistic high-frequency response no matter where you're sitting. A built-in crossover sculpts the frequencies going to the woofer and tweeters for smooth blending of the highs and mids, and protects the tweeter against power overload. Compact, lightweight neodymium magnets reduce the size of these speakers so they can fit in more vehicles without sacrificing performance.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Tweeter: Each speaker uses two type-S2, 3/4" Kortec dome tweeters. The dual tweeters exhibit smoother frequency response and higher output than conventional two-way or three-way designs. Kortec is a silky fabric saturated on the underside with a proprietary stiffening agent. Because the inside surface of the dome is ultra stiff, the tweeter tracks the signal with ease and produces an excellent transient attack. Simultaneously, the soft, self-dampening top layer eliminates unwanted resonance, so the sound is smooth and articulate. The contoured tweeter plane delivers smooth extension and strong on-axis and off-axis response. Woofer: The copolymer woofer cone has a durable butyl rubber surround and stands up to the harsh automotive environment. Crossover: All SX speakers feature specifically tuned crossovers to deliver the best blend between the tweeter and woofer. Each also features tweeter protection for optimal performance and reliability. Voice Coil: The oversized 1-1/2" voice coil increases overall power handling and reliability. Installation: The compact size of the magnet allows SX series speakers to fit where other high quality speakers don't. Neodymium magnets offer extraordinary power-to-weight ratio, approximately ten times the magnetic strength of a conventional iron-ferrite magnet of equal size.

I have a Pioneer DEH 6800 head unit which supplies ABOUT 20 watts RMS per speaker and the difference in these speakers and my factory ones were IMMEDIATELY noticeable. I have YET to experience distortion. And to TOP IT OFF, as the first guy said, I haven't even hooked them up to an amplifier yet! I just recieved the amp a week ago but my car is in the shop for other reasons so I cant pull an all-nighter to put the amp in. My Sony XM-SD46X 4 channel amp is a PERFECT match for these speakers. I will also be installing dynamat in the front doors so that these speakers will sound even better. I already have dynamat on the rear deck. If you are going to spend this kind of money on these speakers, then save up enough and get you a PERFECT amplifier (like the one I noted) and seal them off with the dynamat. Although I haven't finished adding the amp or the dynamat, these speakers still DOMINATE! They don't (as previously mentioned in other reviews) provide much low-end bass but that's why I have 2 12" Sony Xplod's hooked up through a different amp lol.

Really lacking in the bass sounded almost distorted and weak. Thats when i did my researched and learned that these particular speakers are very power happy. So i went out and bought myself and orion 2 channel amp running two pioneer speakers and my bostons off of it. Now im blown away. The bass is responsive and clear, highs and mids are super clear and blow my pioneers out of the water, Even at high levels.

I purchased this boston SX95 6X9 set to replace and older BA that the foam surround gave out on.

Boston has more of an 'in your face' sound as it has been described to me before. I was a little dissappointed on the low end, doesnt hit quite as hard as my older Bostons did, but it was ok for me, and i only have it running from an Alpine receiver. the magnet is only about half the size as my older ones, so i was a little dissapointed with that , and attribute that to the less bass.
