Product Research
Features
Klippel Analysis: By using a state-of-the-art Klippel Distortion Analyzer, Rockford Fosgate engineers can optimize the speaker's motor structure, voice coil alignment, and suspension for the best possible performance and the lowest distortion.
Mounting: While Rockford Fosgate calls the R165X3 a 6-1/2" speaker, its required cutout will not allow it to fit in standard 6-1/2" applications. It does easily replace what we describe as 6-3/4" speakers. Please enter your vehicle information to confirm fit.

Beautiful design, many hole options for mounting. Screws a bit too long but overall, very satisfied. A lot of clarity vs my factory speakers. I am sure with an amp, these would scream. Fit perfect in My Palisade
