About the PowerBass OE-6C
Replacement component speakers for your 2-ohm factory system
Replacement component speakers for your 2-ohm factory system
Some cars use low-impedance speakers to get a little more punch out of the factory radio. If you try to replace these speakers with standard 4-ohm aftermarket speakers, you'll notice a significant loss of volume — never a good thing. Finding 2-ohm replacement speakers has always been a problem. Until now, that is....
These specially designed PowerBass 2-ohm speakers will make the most of your factory power. Install these OE-6C 6-1/2" component speakers, and you'll hear a big improvement in sound quality over your old factory speakers. Plus, their shallow mounting depth ensures they're a fit in a wide variety of vehicles too.
Step up to aftermarket quality
Say goodbye to flimsy factory woofers and whizzer cones. Sturdy yet sensitive polypropylene woofers and butyl rubber surrounds deliver satisfying low-frequency and midrange performance while shrugging off the extreme temperatures in your car doors. The separate 1" aluminum alloy dome tweeters bring the high range to life with the crisp detail that's been missing from your factory sound. PowerBass includes compact 2-way crossovers that distribute the highs and lows to the proper speakers.
Note: These speakers won't work with aftermarket car stereos, unless you add a 2-ohm stable outboard amplifier to your system. PowerBass designed these speakers for use with a 2-ohm factory system. Identify your vehicle or call an advisor to confirm compatibility.

Features
Application: On their website, PowerBass notes the 2Ω OE-Series speakers are not designed for use with aftermarket head units or amplifiers. However, if an amplifier is 2Ω stable, with appropriate output power, the speakers are compatible.
Woofer Size Classification Note: Some manufacturers, including PowerBass, call this size speaker 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.
Tweeter Mounting: The tweeters can be surface or flush mounted using the included adapters. The tweeters are shipped in the flush mount housings and the angled surface mount housings are included. The back of the flush mount housing and the top of the angled surface mount housing combine to create the (non-angled) surface mount housing.
