Meh.
Crutchfield customer from RAMONA, CA on 1/22/2021
Installing into a full size 1998 Dodge Ram Van. These are not much better than the factory speakers. I put in one side, tried it, then reinstalled the factory speaker, and there wasn't much difference. If your factory Dodge full size van speakers are not broken, these won't be much better. Guess I'll keep them for an old Mustang that has no speakers.

JBL 9631
Crutchfield customer from Mount Dora, FL on 1/9/2021
The guy from Crutchfield recommended them for my daughters car. So I got them for her for Christmas and absolutely thrilled with the sound. She is a teenager and thought there was plenty of bass coming from them. Very smooth sound

Best bang for your buck
Crutchfield customer from Acworth, GA on 10/21/2020
2008 Hyundai Tiburon
Great 6x9, the clear vocals and high's you get from these speakers are some of the best you're going to find from a coaxial at this price range. the bass is extremely punchy, although it is not going to be as loud as a sub obviously it does more than the trick if you're looking for a stock upgrade with some serious sound. All in all 10/10.
Pros: Good looking Great sound Tight responsive bass Easy Install Clear vocals and high end
Cons: None

These turned my back seats into the best seats in the car. I'm always wary of JBL as quality doesn't seem to last as long but so far I'm very surprised with how these are holding up. Very rounded out in terms of hitting highs, mids, and lows.

Super easy install. I am a certified GM Tech, but I followed Crutchfields supplied instruction sheet, just to see the accuracy. No issues. Good job Crutchfield. Speakers sound great, even being powered by the the factory GM head unit. Big Difference

Nice upgrade to the factory system.
Crutchfield customer from Stow, OH on 5/16/2020
2014 Nissan NV Passenger
Upgraded the overall factory system in our 2014 Nissan NV Passenger Van. Head unit upgraded to a Sony XAV-AX5000. Installed these JBL 9631s into the mid panels. They were instantly a noticeable upgrade and add some punch and pop to the sound in the van. Would definitely recommend these speakers as the provide the high quality sound you would expect from JBL.

Phenomenal speakers
Crutchfield customer from Slidell, LA on 5/8/2020
2009 Toyota 4Runner
Wow! These speaker back a punch! The lows come in great and the highs still ring true. I'm loving these speakers in my 4runner.
Pros: Just 2 of these bad boys and my 4runner sounds incredible. I'll just go for a drive now to hear the BASS! They are powered by a Pioneer AVH-2440NEX and it has plenty of power.
Cons: None. These rock!

Great product but missing hardware
Steve from Omaha, NE on 4/28/2020
2019 Ram 1500
Been a Crutchfield customer since 1980, and they've always provided great products at competitive prices with excellent customer service...as for this review, it's a 3 for overall experience and a 4 for the speakers themselves. The JBL 9631 provides improved clarity across the frequency spectrum and is superior to the factory speakers in my 2019 Ram 1500 in every way though they're not as dynamic as I thought they'd be, but an amp is likely needed to really make them sing. Very balanced speaker. As far as the overall experience goes, I ordered the 9631 as it includes the hardware kit that the 9631F does not. The factory screws in the Ram do not work with these speakers and I needed that hardware to install them correctly, so it was disappointing to find that the 9631s came only with grill covers (which I don't need) and no hardware. Not sure if this was an oversight on JBL's or Crutchfield's part, but I had to dig through my assortment of fasteners to complete the install of one pair. The 2nd pair will have to wait until I can make a trip to the hardware store, which isn't a huge deal but it is a bit of a time waster for something I would've been finished with already. All that said, the JBL 9631 is a really good product that is well worth the price to upgrade your factory drivers, and when it's on sale like it is currently then it's a great deal.
Pros: Solid product by JBL Crutchfield service and support Metra cabling harness included
Cons: Missing hardware Factory amp doesn't quite cut it, speakers really need an amp to bring out their potential (Not JBL or Crutchfield's fault)

terrible speakers
Robert from Bartlett, IL on 2/27/2020
2009 Toyota Camry
VERY disappointed in these speakers. After I installed them and turned on the system I kept getting an intermittant scratchy/ static like sound from these speakers from the left and right side in the rear positions. What I eventually found was that even when powered off I could manually actuate the low cones with my fingers and you could hear a scratchy/gritty sound being produced like the cone was rubbing on something when it was moving. I was unable to return them because I had to modify them to hook them up by seperating the high and low because the crossover is done before the speakers in the factory amp. Unwilling to gamble on another set of these I ordered a set of JBL club 9630's which I've used before. The club 9630's were modified in the same way and worked great with none of the scratchiness or noise . The bass is not as deep with the 9630's but they at least work normally. I'd steer away from the concert 9631's as I believe there are some production or design issues.
Pros: none
Cons: terrible scratchy/gritty sound from low cones

JBL Concert series 9631
Crutchfield customer from Gatesville, TX on 2/18/2020
2019 Ram 3500
I have owned JBL products in the past which is why I purchased these speakers. These speakers sound a little thin. I expected more bass with JBL speakers. I am not running a amplifier just the power from the stock radio. This is more than likely the reason for the thin sound. There are no issues with quality the speakers are built well. I must thank the Crutchfield staff as I had some installation issues. Absolute professionals, they made me feel as if it was their own issue. Thanks guys.

Best upgrade for factory sound system!
Crutchfield customer from Wright, WY on 12/26/2019
Just what my Forester needed! I didn't want to replace the factory head unit, so very efficient speakers were needed. JBL Concert Series make this possible and make the sound system come alive! They have very smooth clarity, not overly bright or harsh. The bass is just so much more accurate and punchy, eliminating all the exaggerated muddy bottom(ish) sound from the factory set. I'm just disappointed that I waited this long to replace the factory junk, which went straight into the trash. Without spending much, these speakers truly transformed the sound system into a very enjoyable experience and I didn't have to add an amp or change the stock head unit.
Pros: Very clean smooth sound. Accurate punchy bass. Very efficient and don't need an amp to drive them. Great for factory head unit.
Cons: I can now hear when the bitstream sampling is low if I'm streaming on Bluetooth. ;-) Unexpected consequences of good speakers!

Great Old School 6x9's!
