Car coaxial speaker
12.7 cm (5") 2-way, 180W Peak
 
Light polypropylene cone
Inside the speaker, a diaphragm sits on top of a 
voice coil to produce a signal waveform once an 
input signal is received. It transforms the signal 
wave into a sound wave. Polypropylene is one of 
the lightest plastics ever invented and is great 
material for speaker diaphragms due to its 
weight, high strength, stiffness and tolerance for 
high temperatures. These polypropylene cones 
deliver high quality music by reacting to even the 
smallest sound signal to produce clear, vivid 
sound.
Sensitive cloth surround
A highly sensitive cloth connects the woofer 
diaphragm to the speaker frame to form a 
surround suspension system. When a sound 
signal reaches the cone inside the woofer, the 
cloth surround assembly brings the cone back 
into position to be ready to receive another 
sound signal. By doing so, the woofer can 
capture every signal with a minimum of 
distortion, giving you clear, smooth sound no 
matter how loud or how quiet the music is 
played.
Soft PEI dome tweeter
PEI (Polyetherimide) is ideal material for 
tweeter domes due to its light weight, high 
tensile strength, high stability and tolerance for 
high temperatures. Inside the tweeter, the small 
diaphragm (the dome opening) produces high 
frequency tones. These PEI domes can capture 
even the highest musical notes to make your 
music textured with warm, full-range treble. The 
dome shape also spreads the sound around so 
that you can hear the high notes from every seat 
in the car.
Strong ferrite magnet
Ferrite is a lightweight but strong material with 
a permanent and coherent magnetic field. It is 
the key speaker component that induces the 
movement of the voice coil and the diaphragm. 
When an input signal is received, the voice coil 
acts as an electromagnet that causes the woofer 
and tweeter diaphragm to either attract or 
repel. The ferrite magnet produces an even 
magnetic field for smooth diaphragm movement, 
ensuring sound output with lower distortion. 
Using such a stable and highly coercive magnet 
like ferrite, the voice coil can produce loud 
sounds while keeping the tone smooth.
Stylish speaker grille
The speaker grille has been designed to give cars 
the look of luxury. Composed of two parts - a 
detachable metal mesh casing and a plastic ring, 
when installed over the speaker, it fully covers 
the tweeter dome and speaker cone. Hard and 
durable, it protects the speakers from accidental 
kicks and curious fingers, both of which can be 
damaging to their sound performance.
