JL Audio – C1-525X 5.25-inch Coaxial Speaker System

Coaxial Speaker System: 5 x 7 / 6 x 8-inch (125 x 180 mm) Woofer, 0.75-inch (19 mm) Silk Dome Tweeter

C2 systems deliver sparkling high-frequency detail, smooth mid-range and powerful mid-bass, thanks to real silk dome tweeters and precision-engineered woofer designs.

Many people mistakenly believe that an oval speaker cannot perform as well as a round one, leading to many instances of 5.25-inch speakers being installed into 5 x 7-inch openings. JL Audio has put in the engineering time and effort to create fantastic-sounding speakers that drop into oval openings and deliver equivalent performance to our 6.5-inch (165 mm) round speaker systems… guaranteed. So, don’t make the mistake of losing cone area and efficiency by stepping down to a smaller round speaker… these ovals are as impressive as our round format systems.

The C2-570x system features 5 x 7 / 6 x 8-inch (125 x 180 mm) woofers with mineral-filled polypropylene cones, long excursion capabilities and stamped steel frames. The woofer design benefits from JL Audio’s vast woofer design experience and advanced modeling systems.

Tweeters are coaxially mounted and built with 0.75-inch silk dome diaphragms that deliver smooth, extended response, on and off axis. The small size of the C2 tweeter minimizes tweeter protrusion, allowing C2 coaxials to fit behind most factory speaker grilles.

Grilles are not available for this speaker system.

Coaxial Speaker System: 5 x 7 / 6 x 8-inch (125 x 180 mm) Woofer, 0.75-inch (19 mm) Aluminum Dome Tweeter

C1 speakers deliver real substance and great audio performance in a format designed for easy fit behind factory grilles.

To facilitate fit, spacer/adaptor rings are included, allowing the C1-570x to be installed in bottom-mount applications. The speaker baskets are also equipped with slotted mounting holes to fit into 6 x 8-inch factory speaker locations.

C1 woofer drivers benefit from proprietary FEA modeling and JL Audio’s expertise in low-frequency driver design. This knowledge is used to create speakers that can play loudly, while maintaining a smooth, dynamic, low distortion sound. At the core of the C1-570x is a proprietary, stamped, steel 5 x 7-inch (125 x 180 mm) oval frame and a DMA-optimized motor system. A mineral-filled, injection-molded polypropylene cone is suspended with a rubber surround on the front, and a carefully engineered flat Conex? spider at the top of the voice coil, to precisely control motion and prevent impact between the voice coil and the back plate. Tinsel leads are carefully routed and attached to the spider to prevent fatigue and buzzing. These are the same kinds of features and materials normally found on much more expensive loudspeakers.

Equipped with a true, edge-driven, aluminum dome tweeter, C1 speakers stand further apart from others in its category with superior high-frequency clarity and definition. The tweeter’s design has inherently excellent off-axis response and high-frequency extension. It also benefits from the damping of a silk surround suspension and Ferrofluid in the voice coil gap, along with the superior strength of a neodymium magnet circuit. A true, 2nd order high-pass filter is employed to further enhance smoothness and improve power handling.

When it comes to value, C1 is the real deal!
