Solid through and through

Features
Polypropylene Woofer Cones: The Kicker CSC-series speakers feature polypropylene woofer cones, resistant to moisture and the temperature extremes found in automotive applications.
Surrounds: The ribbed polyester foam surrounds allow extended cone excursion for additional bass output and higher SPL.
Balanced-Dome Tweeters: Each speaker uses a 1/2" PEI (polyetherimide) balanced-dome tweeter. A balanced dome tweeter has a dome placed inside a cone, with equal reproduction area given the cone and dome sections.
Mounting: In addition to fitting standard 6-1/2 and 4-hole 6-1/2 applications, the CSC65 also has a standard 6-3/4 bolt pattern. However, if mounted in a 6-3/4 location the holes for the smaller pattern create an air leak, which should be sealed using a speaker baffle, or something similar.

Installed 4 of these in my car to replace the factory speakers. Great frequency response, clarity and volume from my 14 watt Pioneer head unit. I listen to a lot of blues and classic rock music. No shortage of bass, clear mid-range and crisp highs. Very happy with my choice.
