Better components give you better detail

Each 5-1/4" speaker sports a stiff polypropylene woofer cone that delivers strong drums and bass, along with clean reproduction of the midrange frequencies. Rockford Fosgate mounts the silk dome tweeter flush with the woofer so it'll fit in more vehicles while adding the excitement of strong high-frequency response. The built-in crossover network divides the frequencies going to each driver, so all your music plays faithfully. Grilles are included.

Product Research

Features

Tweeters: Each speaker features a 1/2" Silk dome tweeter. The embedded design maintains the correct phase relationship between the tweeter and woofer, and doesn't add to the speaker's overall height.

Klippel Analysis: By using a state-of-the-art Klippel Distortion Analyzer, Rockford Fosgate engineers can optimize the speaker's motor structure, voice coil alignment, and suspension for the best possible performance and the lowest distortion.

Q
is the Rockford Fosgate R1525X2 a good speaker to replace my son's stock speakers in his 2007 Ford Ranger? Will this make a difference or should I get something else? I'm buying a new radio for him to put in it for Christmas because his does not work.

Q
Will this speaker work in my 2001 Honda Odyssey with a stock radio w/o navigation? My stock speaker is a Pioneer TS-06049 zh/xl/uc and shows 4ohm, Nom 15W Maw 35W.
jesse  Aug 25, 2023
1 answer
A
Greetings Jesse, and thank you for your question. These will fit the 2001 Odyssey with minimal modifications to the factory speaker mounting brackets and secure by re drilling new screw holes. It also is a 4 ohm speaker.

Q
Will this work with a 2ohm factory radio for a short time?
rob  Feb 05, 2023
1 answer
A
We would not recommend using a 4 ohm speaker on a 2 ohm factory system, out of an abundance of caution, because you could risk frying and damaging the stock radio.

Q
will these fit in a 1983 jeep cj5 using the factory bolt setup in the dash?
spencer  Jan 17, 2023
1 answer
A
Based on our measurements, this will fit the dash speaker locations without any need for modification or brackets. If your CJ5 has the rear speaker enclosures, then these may not fit without modification, specifically in term so of widening the diameter of the speaker hole.

I'm pretty sure they are not waterproof--they weren't advertised as such when I bought them (in 2019) and there was nothing about the speakers on install that suggested they might be waterproof/water resistant.

Q
Are the 5.25's a better investment for my mazda 3a sound wise on the longevity factor in comparison to the 6x8's?
kenny  Nov 28, 2020
1 answer
A
I can't specifically answer that question but I have been happy with the sound of these speakers. They are in the rear doors of a 2002 Saturn L-series wagon. They have enough bass to sound full on their own and we modified the sound out of the new Kenwood stereo to boost the lower bass and the speakers seem to handle that well.

Hi I was wondering if the speakers would fit in the front door of my mazda 3 2013 the front speakers are the exact same as the rear ones but your speaker sizing tool says they are only compatable for the rear doors but if the rear and front are the same does that mean they'd work on the front doors too?

There is a tool on this site to choose the make and model of your vehicle, and then it will tell you if it is compatible. If by chance that does not work or another issue arises, I would directly contact an employee from crutchfield.

Q
My jvc deck says 50 watt output. Does that mean 50 per speaker? My current speakers distort around 75% volume, and I want to be able to get the rest of that power. Will these speakers work?
zeb  May 02, 2019
1 answer
A
Yes that is 50 watts peak power x 4 channels - or 50 watts per speaker. It is more like 22 watts RMS (constant power). Those Rockford Fosgate Prime speakers would be a good match at 2-40 watts RMS power handling. You can connect with one of our friendly product advisors here to see if we have any installation gear to help put them in your vehicle: https://bit.ly/2qPH8aN

Q
I have a 1986 Nissan 300ZX Base. Will the existing speaker wire have to be replaced to support these speakers?
david  Mar 29, 2019
2 answers
A
If you are just upgrading the stock speakers you shouldn't need to replace any speaker wire - often times we even have speaker harnesses to make the installation even easier. If you add a new amp or increase the power dramatically that's when you would need to upgrade to heavier gauge wire. If you have any other questions you can always connect with one of our friendly Product Advisors for personalized advice here: https://bit.ly/2QNxGQB
casey  Apr 14, 2019 (Staff)
A
Do you mean to support a higher wattage grin an amp or head unit? Likely not, but the speakers I've gotten from Crutchfield, came with the speaker plug top match the factory wiring
david  Apr 12, 2019
Q
It says pair in paranthesis so i was wondering does it come with 2 speakers per quantity meaning i would need a quantity of 2 to get all 4 speakers for the doors and rear deck? Making it like an $80 investment for all 4 or if i need to pay $160 for all 4
annabelle  Oct 20, 2018
4 answers
A
39.99 for the pair, so you full investment to have the four will be 80, but well worth the money.
norman  Oct 26, 2018
A
It comes in pairs meaning if you want 4 speakers total, order a quantity of 2
christopher  Oct 25, 2018
A
It is 2 speakers per quanity yes. So you'll need to order 2 quanity. It should be around $80+.
zachary  Oct 25, 2018

Well it come in set of 2's for left side and right side per box.So, if you're doing all doors then you will need to buy 2 boxes.

Does any know the cone diameter on these? Looking to rear mount them in custom wood boombox. The cuts are 4.71". Thanks.
kevin  Dec 23, 2017
1 answer
A
I don't know the cone diameter, but I do know that Rockford Fosgate does list these speakers as needing a 4.696" cutout for both top and rear mount. Given you have 4.71"I would expect these to work for you. HTH! My Bio: http://www.crutchfield.com/Support/Bio.aspx?bio=101

Take this with a grain of salt, I'm just a customer, but they handled last winter in Seattle really well (The wettest on record), where there was mold and mildew (and some level of raindrops) on everything, though they are not specifically marine speakers. If you need something specifically splash-able, think about something marine specific, Polk Audio makes some DB650's that kick.. Not sure what your fitting requirements are.. https://www.crutchfield.com/S-nm8KHgbC9sL/p_107DB650/Polk-Audio-db650.html

If your referring to the mounting bracket it does. As long as you have entered your vehicle into "what fits my car" the correct mounting bracket will be included. Make sure the "it fits" is next to the speaker you've selected.

I installed my pair with a standard Sony receiver on my harley Davidson Electra Glide. At 50 mph I have to turn the radio up and I still get an awesome sound from these speakers, (Rockford Fosgate Prime R1525X2) I highly recommend them with a stock or aftermarket system
donald  Jan 08, 2014
A
I don't quite understand your questions, but I'll say the following, as long as you have space for a 5 1/4" speaker, and your radio has enough power, they should sound OK. They do not reproduce much bass, so I use them in my front doors as mid-range speakers, since I have a powered sub-woofer in the rear to handle the heavy bass. Hope this helps out.
victor  Jan 07, 2014
A
Pretty good sound from these speakers. Idk if your stock ones are premium but if not these will be better. These won't effect your head unit, they will use whatever amperage its putting out.
chad  Jan 07, 2014
A
Upgrading your factory speakers is always my first step. Even if you don't have a factory amp ie Bose or any other type of "upgraded" factory system. The sound quality over paper speakers is so much better. However if your factory head unit doesn't have enough RMS power to push these you may not get the full flavor sound your looking for. But I have these with my factory head unit and they sound great. So there are a ton of variables when it comes to car-fi. But it's up to you. But to answer your question Yes they are worth it
matthew  Jan 06, 2014
A
My personal experience with these speakers is a great one. They sound so much better than the original ones that were in my truck. The sound is crisp and clear even at high volume. They also sound great accompanied by a pair of subs. I would say they are worth the investment.
