JL Audio C2-525cw C2 Series 5-1/4″ component woofer

Two-way Component System: 6.5″ (165 mm) Woofer, 1″ (25 mm) Silk Dome Tweeter

Born from shared technologies used in our flagship C7 speakers, the C6-650 component system combines the smoothness and transparency of a premium silk dome tweeter with a top-flight component woofer to create a loudspeaker system with exceptional refinement and dynamic capability.

Benefiting from vast woofer design experience and advanced modeling systems of JL Audio, the 6.5 inch (165 mm) C6 component woofers feature purpose-engineered, cast alloy frames outfitted with our Elevated Frame Cooling technology. A DMA-optimized, forged and machined motor system generates outstanding midbass impact with ultra-low distortion.

The 1″ (25 mm) C6 component tweeters feature edge-driven pure silk dome diaphragms for smooth high-frequency performance with remarkable off-axis response and damping. Neodymium motors and ferrofluid cooling provide high-magnetic flux and improved reliability with extended response from a very compact motor system. Surface- and flush-mount fixtures are included to fit a wide variety of installation applications.

Premium passive crossover networks are included with each C6-650 component system. Featuring four levels of tweeter adjustment, these outboard filter networks are equipped with premium polyester film and electrolytic capacitors as well as low-loss air-core inductors — all accessible beneath a protective, polycarbonate cover. Each C6 passive crossover also includes an advanced electronic tweeter protection circuit designed to minimize the possibility of tweeter failure.

C6 Woofer Features:
• Forged and machined motor plates with DMA-optimized geometries to create linear motor force under power, leading to outstanding midbass impact, linearity and low distortion
• Large diameter, linear profile, flat spider for linear compliance and outstanding excursion capability
• Center cap designed to optimize the high-frequency response of the woofer for seamless transition to a tweeter’s response
• Oversized voice coil for extended power handling capability, minimizing thermal compression and distortion at higher listening levels
• Cast alloy frame with our Elevated Frame Cooling feature
• Includes fine mesh grilles

C6 Tweeter Features:
• Edge-driven pure silk dome design delivers smooth high-frequency performance, with excellent off-axis response and damping
• Neodymium motor delivers high magnetic flux from a compact motor design
• Ferrofluid cooling and damping improves reliability and response smoothness
• Includes surface- and flush-mount fixtures

Woofer grilles are included, each consisting of a black grille tray and a fine steel mesh grille with an electroformed JL Audio badge logo.

Speakers are sold as a pair.

2-Way Convertible Component / Coaxial System: 6.5-inch (165 mm) Woofer, 1-inch (25 mm) Silk Dome Tweeter

There are times when an installation calls for a separate woofer and tweeter and other times when a coaxial is the better approach. With the Evolution? C3 Convertible Component Systems, the same product can be deployed in either configuration, delivering outstanding audio power and quality in each application.

The C3-650 system features 6.5-inch (165 mm) component woofers with oversized 1.2-inch (30.5 mm) voice coils, mineral-filled polypropylene cones and injection-molded polymer baskets. The woofer design benefits from JL Audio’s vast woofer design experience and advanced modeling systems.

The C3 tweeters are built with 1-inch silk dome diaphragms that deliver powerful, extended response, on and off axis. Flush-mounting and surface-mounting fixtures are included to fit a wide variety of installation needs. They can also be mounted onto the woofers in a coaxial format using the included fixtures.

C3 crossover networks are compact and built with premium component parts, including Mylar? capacitors and segmented air-core inductors. Four levels of tweeter attenuation are provided, as well as three levels of mid-range presence adjustment, for twelve possible voicing combinations!

Woofer grilles are included, each consisting of a black grille tray and a black steel mesh grille with an electroformed JL Audio logo.
