CERWIN-Vega! XED Series 2-Way Speakers – High-Performance Audio with 300W MAX Power (XED650C)

Mounted in 95 Chevy Tahoe. Need Metra trim rings since the factory speakers have the trim ring built into the speaker and cannot be used for new speakers. The Metra trim rings will need simple modification to make work. Sounded great and the price was right

The media could not be loaded. portable DIY Bluetooth boombox 18"x7.5"x5" to run off & charge 18V drill batteries.. Total cost of speakers, amp, battery charger and .5" plywood is about $80. The benefit of these speakers vs. coaxials is they have no gaps anywhere .. hence NO air leaks.. The dimension of the box is as small as these speakers allow however to feel the bass gotta have 6" dual passive radiators on the rear. The radiators have steel plates in the center so they don't deform (made of rubber) .. so they have to be far enough from the speaker magnets to avoid 'sticking' to the magnets :)Not fan of loud music .. but this 6.5" component setup is the smallest I found to sound best at medium to low volume with full sound and deep base (these speakers are 60hz-18Hhz ... however with rear radiators I'm getting about 45hz out of this tiny boombox.Fill the empty space inside the box with dense foam to increase the air pressure on the passive radiators ..Modify the battery power supply: add the side plug and 14v automotive relay to switch amp power from the battery to the power supply so the boombox can play without a battery OR if the battery is present the battery is strictly in charge mode while the boombox is playing music.So far the boombox will play about 12hrs on 3AH battery .. not bad at all.

The media could not be loaded. Slight improvement in clarity over stock speakers, but still worth it in my option. Installed left side first (Beginning of video) to compare to right side stock speakers. You can hear the difference in the video when switched from left to right. Once all speakers installed, the sound is much better over stock - with no amplifier. Overall, a good buy if you not looking to spend too much money.

OK mids, harsh highs, cheap Xover. Don't feed it bass. I built boxes and put it in the garage with a bluetooth amp.

They sound nice. Definitely a drastic improvement over stock. They may not be the best of the best but they are a good value for the money.

I've always loved Cerwin Vega subs so I figured I'd try the mids and highs and for the price they sound pretty good. I have an amp powering them but they seam pretty efficient so they may be ok off just the head unit.

I've owned alot of car audio in my time and I have to say that these speakers are without a doubt the worst sound quality that I've ever heard. I thought Cerwin Vega was a high end brand. But these rate right up there with finger nails across a chalkboard. I mounted them in a wrangler sound bar. The cheap speakers that I took out (which were smaller and way less wattage capacity) were much better. The covers couldn't be mounted to the speaker once installed and the speaker couldn't be installed before the cover due to design. Don't waste your money on these!
