JBL Car GTO 609C 6.5 Inch 2-Way Component Speaker System Including x2 Midrange Speakers and x2 Tweeters - Black

I bought these as an addition to a high end JL audio system in my Vectra C. After reading some reviews after making the purchase i wasnt expecting great things and initially when trying them out i was dissapointed for minutes only. But then after tuning things in and running them for almost an hour they slowly came to life. They sound awesome. They are coupled up to an amp but my oh my they sound good. Very pleased 😀

Great value for money..sounds amazing

Amazing improvement to any OEM system. Very easy to install lots of different backplates etc. Suitable for DIY installation. Once broken in, and with a decent amount of power, they will sing. Used these for >5yr in current car, and in previous car, and still work perfectly. Add a 12 or 15 sub for completeness.

I like the warm sound of these speakers. The build quality of the crossover casing could be better and would have preferred the tweeters to sit more flush, but I am still happy with my purchase. Not sure of the bass levels on their own, but have them in a box with a bass port and this has plenty of bass for me.

I became a JBL fan over 16 years ago when I started my DJ career and since then JBL NEVER failed me. Fabulous high, mid and low range ,built to last. If you know how to set up the equipment and install properly I promise you won't be disappointed. I installed them on a Caddy from 2010 and the sound it's absolutely amazing.

I initially tried to get hold of a certain set of discontinued Pioneer coaxial speakers, but to no avail. These were next on my list. I've installed a huge number of speakers into my cars over the years, but these JBL's are by far the strangest I've ever fitted. I'd read the other reviews regarding "break in" time and was prepared to have to bed them in. What I wasn't prepared for were quite possibly the most ragged and harsh out of the box sound ever for speakers around this price range. I was shocked at how bad they were. Dull mids, almost no bass and tweeters as shrill as a baby screaming through a loudhaler. They look and feel well made and have about every type of fitting you'll ever need in the box. I'm about three weeks in now and I've slowly been talking up the volume and tweaking the frequency inputs. They now sound astonishingly good. I mean, really good. It's like they refused to wake up until they'd been teased a little first. Bass is good for the size. Don't expect more than a decent high range punch. Mids are clean and energetic. The highs are much less shrill now and reproduce beautifully. The crossovers have a tweeter "boost" but you'll only need that if they're away from your ears a fair bit. If you are patient, these are worth the wait, I promise.

Amazing sound quality from jbl and the covers are a nice finish as with any new speakers they need to bed in a little bit but once they have they sound really nice good bass for a mid range speaker and crystal clear tweeters

Fitting these to my vauxhall insignia in the front I was expecting something special. Hooked up to vibe slick 800 watt 4 channel amp. They lack base badly. Checked my wiring over and over. Can't get a decent sound. Went and bought a set of vibe component speakers and they sound great. Cannot figure it out. UPDATE. Fitted them back again and this time I gave them time to settle in. Tweaked the amp and I must confess I'm now a lot happier. Base has come to life after a few days. Tweeters sound excellent. You can definitely hear sounds that don't come through with other speakers. So glad I re-fitted them.
