About the JL Audio C7-650cw
JL Audio's flagship car speaker series
JL Audio's flagship car speaker series
Whoa... That's about all I could muster after demoing JL Audio's C7 component system at their headquarters. I was floored. Track to track, moment to moment, I was astounded by the clarity and presence reproduced by these speakers. Impactful loudness, rich detail, imaging that seemed almost magical — all of it facilitated an emotional connection that rivaled live performance.
Note: The C7 Series 6-1/2" woofer, 3-1/2" midrange, and 1" tweeter are all sold singly.
Dream woofer
This C7-650cw 6-1/2" woofer will bring satisfying midbass to your dream system. It'll endure heavy use and extreme temperatures thanks, in part, to its mineral-filled polypropylene cone and a durable rubber surround. Its advanced dust cap sets this speaker apart from others in its class by extending its frequency response and allowing the driver to work gracefully in a 2- or 3-way system — and always sound phenomenal. A one-of-a-kind machined motor and oversized voice coil ensure minimal distortion under any appropriate power scenario. JL Audio also includes a handsome grille for a totally unique custom installation.
Make it part of an active system
The ultra-premium C7 Series has been years in the making, but its unveiling was contingent on JL Audio providing the ultimate tuning solution for optimal speaker performance — and that's TüN, their latest audio-tuning software. Each C7 speaker is sold à la carte to give you the freedom to design whatever system your ears desire. You'll need an active crossover to use C7 speakers — JL Audio' recommends using their TwK™ 88 digital signal processor, which gives you access to the awesome sound-shaping power that TüN offers. The JL Audio engineers designed the C7-650cw to be neutral, without coloration, so that you can use TüN to craft exactly the right sound for you and your vehicle.

Features
Size Classification Note: Some manufacturers, including JL Audio, call this size woofer a 6½". Because it requires a larger cutout than a standard 6½" speaker, Crutchfield has traditionally referred to this size woofer as a 6¾". Please enter your vehicle information to confirm fit.
Power Handling: JL Audio publishes several power specifications for this speaker, 125 watts continuous power handling (RMS), 225 watts peak music power, and 50-175 watts recommended amplifier power (RMS). We've listed the conservative combination of 50-125 watts RMS in the specs table.
Grilles: Two grille inserts are included, a standard mesh pattern and what JL Audio describes as a spiral pattern. Either can be mounted in the trim ring (pressure fit).
