Product Research

Features

Balanced Dome Tweeter: Each speaker has a 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.

Customer Q&A

4 questions already asked

Q
I don't understand this. Replacing the 1- or 2-ohm factory speaker with a higher-impedance aftermarket speaker will result in lower volume levels.?
stephen  Jan 12, 2018

A
Right. Evidently; your factory system uses speakers that have an unusually low impedance so, when you replace them with aftermarket models (like these JVC which are 4 Ohms) they will get fewer watts from the stock system and provide less output as a result.

Q
Is this two 5 1/4 speakers and 2 tweeters?
trevor  Feb 12, 2017
1 answer
A
Thanks for your question. No, this is not a component system. There would be no separate tweeter as it's built into the 2-way speaker. You can find this information on the main product page under "What's in the Box". Hope this helps.
