About this product
Product Information
Superior sound waits at the turn of your car key with the Polk Audio db6501 car speaker. This high-performance system blends big sound with high power, delivering reliable, optimized sound every time. Optimized to work well with both high-end head units and factory OEM installations, the db6501 delivers clear highs and lows with minimal distortion. The stainless steel mounting hardware, butyl rubber, and rustproof steel basket ensure that your system stays in peak condition for years. Keep your car looking sharp with the vented crossover housing for hidden wire channels. Durable materials and exceptional quality make this speaker a welcome addition to any vehicle.The difference between the factory default sound system that comes with most cars and the db6501 from Polk is massive. The depth, quality, and clarity of sound are far better across the treble, midrange, and bass. One of the most important aspects of car speakers is the soundstage, and Polk is well known for building excellent soundstages with all of their lines. The detail is incredible and will shock you if you have never heard a comparable speaker set before. The company also emphasizes durability and long-lasting components. That is why the butyl rubber surround and the tough steel matter as using those materials will add years to the lifetime of the db6501.In terms of special features, the entire db line is waterproof. Although they are marked as car speakers, they actually work just as well in boats. Some boats come with db sets included, or you can simply install them yourself. Either way, you can feel secure that the sun and waves will not damage the speakers. They work with most head unit types, both domestic and imports, and installation is relatively easy. The woofer and tweeters can handle a peak max of 300 watts with a recommended continuous power rating of 100 watts. A car stereo upgrade can change your music, audio, and radio experience completely. The db series is well known because it takes Polk's expertise in home theater systems to the car realm. The design allows you to thread the wires out of the way for a polished look. The Katpon voice coil with accompanying cooling rounds out the speakers without a subwoofer. A pair will benefit from a nice amplifier that can drive them, although that might take more mechanical work to install and bind to the 2-way post. Place each speaker on one side of the car to get that great soundstage effect that Polk is famous for and witness how the beautiful design fits perfectly with your interior. Polk has really outdone themselves with the 6501. The marine applications, the way the tweeter and woofer blend together, and the ease of setting up the electronics all make this a great product if you care about car audio. Don't be surprised if you find yourself spending more time in the car with the radio on after putting in one of these sets. Whether it is smooth jazz or blasting bass, you will find that these speakers can do it all.Product Identifiers

Good for highs
Defiantly best to use with high mid range. It doesn't exactly produce the low that I am looking for. Although is clean loud sound. I will use them and have to add something else to this application.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
