About the Infinity Primus 693C

Primus does you right
Primus does you right
Infinity knows what music should sound like in the car, and their Primus 693C 6"x9" component speaker system fits more vehicles than ever. Plus, new technology, like Infinity's cooling vented basket frame, ensures maximum output with less wear and tear over the life of these speakers.
Ditch the uninspired vocals, muddy cymbals, and flabby bass of your factory sound and experience what Infinity quality is all about. Smooth vocals, crisp cymbals, and rich bass await you.
Edge-driven tweeter design
Infinity employs an edge-driven design for an open sound and minimal distortion at high volume. Prepare for a more clearly defined soundstage as the natural details in your music come alive.
The included external crossovers are tuned to Infinity's exceptional standards so that you're treated to this system's best possible sound.
Famous Plus One+ technology
The Primus polypropylene woofer employs Infinity's proprietary Plus One woofer design for solid, punchy bass. Infinity extends the cone right up to the edge of the basket, for more surface area — and a bigger cone means more bass when your music needs it.
Make the most of your power
Infinity's special "true 4-ohm architecture" uses a low-impedance voice coil to safely draw extra power out of your factory radio, aftermarket stereo, or an external amplifier, so you'll get a stronger and clearer sound.

Features
Plus One Woofer Cones: The Plus One speaker cones offer more surface area than other speakers that fit in the same size opening. This is accomplished by using a different basket design and hi-roll surround. The result is greater bass output and an increase in efficiency.
Tweeter Mounting: The I-Mount tweeter mounting system and Starfish mounting brackets give you several different ways to mount the tweeters:
- I-Mount Mounting System: The tweeters can be surface or flush mounted:
- Surface Mount: Surface mounting the tweeters involves screwing the surface-mount cup to the mounting location, then inserting and locking the tweeter into the cup.
- Flush Mount: Flush mounting is made easy through the use of the threaded flush-mount housing and plastic locking nut. Once a cutout is made, the tweeter is installed in the flush-mount adapter, then into the flush mount housing and inserted into the hole. The large plastic locking nut is threaded onto the adapter (from behind the mounting surface) to hold the complete assembly securely in place. When flush mounted, the tweeters may be angled for optimum response and imaging.
- Starfish Mounting Brackets: The Starfish mounting brackets allow the tweeters to be installed in factory locations behind the grilles:
- Bottom Mount: Once the Starfish bracket is trimmed, it is secured to the underside of the grille panel. The tweeter must be inserted into the bracket and locked into place before the bracket is mounted.
- Surface Mount: Once the Starfish bracket is trimmed, it is screwed to the top of the mounting surface behind the grille panel. Then, the tweeter is inserted into the bracket and locked into place.
- Flush Mount: There are two sets of tabs to flush mount the tweeter in the Starfish bracket, yielding different mounting dimensions. The upper tabs mount the tweeter completely below the opening and are glued in place. The lower mounting tabs are screwed in place and result in a mounting height just over 1/3 inch. Once the bracket is mounted, the tweeter is inserted into the bracket and locked into place.

Mounting Height | 0.815" | 0.355" | 0.0" | 0.82" | 0.334" |
Depth | 0.5" (screw depth) | 0.615" | 0.95" | 0.5" (screw depth) | 0.47" |

Cutout Diameter | N/A | 1.45" | N/A | N/A | 1.512" |
Tweeter Crossovers: The included 18" wires have in-line 12 dB/octave high pass crossovers with a crossover point of 5 kHz. The tweeter ends of the wires have quick-slide terminals that easily connect to the wires attached to the tweeters. The input end of each wire has tinned bare wire.
Crossover Dimensions:
- Length: 3½"
- Width: 1"
- Height: ¾"
Impedance: The Primus Series speakers feature 3Ω voice coils to compensate for the high in-line resistance of small gauge factory wiring and extract every watt from the factory receiver, increasing overall system output and efficiency (relative to 4Ω speakers). The speakers also benefit from increased power when you upgrade the wire and add after-market amplifiers capable of powering a lower impedance load.

Better than I expected without an amplifier, great recommendation by Cruchfield easy to install I have a 2014 Nissan titan with a oem system I used the same truck wired from the original speakers was just fine
