Product Research
Features
Woofers: The JL Audio Evolution C2-690tx speakers feature injection-molded, mica-filled polypropylene woofer cones with polyether foam surrounds. Each woofer has a 1¼" voice coil and a flat-profile/symmetrical-roll spider.
Midrange: The 2" Mylar cone midrange drivers are ferrofluid cooled. The sealed back design provides clean, crisp midrange.
Tweeters: Each speaker features a ¾" silk dome, ferrofluid-cooled tweeter with a neodymium magnet. The edge-driven silk dome tweeter is smooth, detailed (on or off axis), and provides great overall performance. Silk is lightweight and great for high frequency extension and efficiency. It is also designed for durability in the extreme automotive environment.
Grilles: Front-loading protective grilles are included, with black steel mesh and satin silver accents. Electroformed logo nameplates can be positioned on the grilles or elsewhere in the vehicle.
Power Handling: JL Audio publishes several power specifications for this speaker, 70 watts continuous power handling (RMS), 225 watts peak music power, and 15-125 watts recommended amplifier power (RMS). We've listed the conservative combination of 15-70 watts RMS in the specs table.
The JL Audio C2-690tx replaces these items:

I gave these JL Audio speakers a five because I have tested so many other 6x9's on the market, to go into my Harley Road Glide saddlebags and actually kick up some dust. These really did the job. If you like sound quality and thumping bass, then you will not be disappointed by these at all.
