About the Boston Acoustics S65RC
Boston Acoustic's S series speakers let you enjoy clear, natural sound, even with a low-powered system. And with a wide variety of sizes, you'll find a set for most commonly-sized speaker openings.
The Boston S65RC 6-1/2" speaker features a 3/4" tweeter with a built-in cooling system for long term reliability and excellent power handling. A contoured tweeter plane guides high-frequency output to create a larger listening "sweet spot," while Boston's Amplitude Modification Device (AMD) reduces harshness in the upper mids for clear, detailed sound.
The sturdy woofer cone teams up with a durable butyl rubber surround to produce tight, clean bass with minimal distortion. And you'll hear a smooth blend between the woofer and tweeter, thanks to the built-in crossover.
Note: Boston describes this model as a 6" speaker. Most manufacturers designate this same frame size as a 6-1/2" speaker. For simplicity's sake we list it as a 6-1/2" speaker.

Crossover: Each speaker in Boston's S line features a specifically tuned crossover to deliver the best transition between the woofer and tweeter.

I just purchased two sets of these speakers as well as a set of S35's fpr my dash. I have a 2010 Dodge Ram, and kept the factory player. They were very easy to install with the adapters supplied by Crutchfield, and quite a difference in the sound. I am very pleased.
