Featured review

Overall these speakers blew me away. Especially compared to the factory speakers in my 2012 Honda. Great highs and mids, but barely audible lows. If purchasing these speakers, make sure to get a sub or two to get the one thing these speakers can't provide.

Does the Sony XS-FB1630 fit a 2000 crv without modifications?

Those Sony speakers would fit the rear side panels but not the front doors without modifications in a 2000 Honda CRV.

Product Research

Features

Woofer Cones: The XS-FB series woofers use MRC cones (Mica Reinforced Cellular glass fiber composite) to reduce weight and increase rigidity, delivering full bass response.

Treated Cloth Surrounds: Each woofer uses a treated cloth surround for added reliability and efficiency.

Tweeters: Each speaker features a 1-7/16" PEI (Poly-Ether-Imide) balanced-dome tweeter. PEI is a polymer film that produces a wide soundstage for superior imaging. A semi-dome tweeter has a dome placed inside a cone. Balanced dome tweeters are semi-dome tweeters with equal reproduction area given the cone and dome portions of the tweeter. A 1/4" PEI dome super tweeter further reinforces the high frequency output.

Specification Note: Sony's rated power spec for the XS-FB1630 is 40 watts (derived using IEC 60268-5 standards). In the manual they also list the CEA 2031 compliant RMS power as 45 watts. We've adopted the 45 watt RMS rating because CEA 2031 is the more common rating system.

Mounting: The speaker basket has multiple mounting holes and is designed to fit standard 3-hole 6-1/2" applications, 4-hole 6-1/2" applications, and standard 4-hole 6-3/4" applications. (When mounting in a 6-3/4" application, use a speaker baffle to seal the inner ring of screw holes.)

What is 3 way speaker mean?

[ Ira Sep 22, 2021 ]

1 answer

Full-range speakers contain all the speaker elements in one basket. In their simplest form, they consist of a woofer for the lows, and a tweeter mounted onto the woofer to produce the highs. Some models will have additional drivers, like a midrange and/or supertweeter - these are referred to as "3-way" or "4-way" speakers. Check out the article below for more information about choosing speakers for your vehicle. https://www.crutchfield.com/learn/learningcenter/car/speakers.html

Does on pair come with enough for both front doors?

[ Kent Sep 12, 2019 ]

4 answers

Each order/box comes with 2 speakers, that's enough for both front doors. (One per door)

[ Hildemaro Sep 17, 2019 ]

These speakers come with enough parts for both front doors. But they only install on the doors and do not come with separate tweeters. I put them on my back doors and installed tweeters in the dash and 2-ways on the front doors.

[ JERRY Sep 12, 2019 ]

Yes. One pair is two speakers. They're awesome.

[ Geoffrey S. Sep 12, 2019 ]

Enough what? Speakers? Yes, there are 2. Sound? Depends on your application.

[ Robert Sep 12, 2019 ]

Why are some people saying no bass whatsoever and others saying it added a lot of bass?

[ FAISAL Aug 16, 2019 ]

1 answer

Everyone's preferences are different and some times, the vehicle even plays a role in how well a speaker like this will work. I recommend contacting an advisor on 1-800-324-9695 to discuss your setup and goals to see if these will work

[ KENNETH Dec 16, 2015 ] Staff

My truck has the enhanced spear system with the door mounted center channel speakers in the front doors. What kind of speakers will I need to replace the 4 front door speakers?

[ Brian Apr 12, 2015 ]
