Here's a video review of the Rockford Fosgate Prime R1653 6.5 inch speakers I recently purchased to install in my portable car stereo. I'll be uploading the overview of the stereo shortly!
Overall, these speakers are a great buy for only $30 to $40. They have incredible highs and mids, and acceptable lows considering they're only 6.5 inch speakers.

FOS-gate, not FOSE-gate. Sorry. Also that capacitor is wired like like because it is a filter capacitor separating low-end and high-end frequencies.

I paid 66.99 for a set of 4 on eBay. They are definitely worth the price paid. I see people ask about the bass a lot. They sound alright I suppose. But seriously people. Consider these a mid-range and high driver. Rely on subs and an amp for your bass.

I bought a pair of 6.5 rockford fosgate prime from the pawn shop for around 25$. They are 40 watts each. They are wired to a pioneer stereo that came with the car. Honda civic 2001. I believe mine are 2 way. I have em in the rear dash. These little speakers put out some damn good bass. Strong for 6.5 at 40 watts. They rattle the damn window in the back. No amp. Just from the stereo. When i do any adjust to the radio. I use the bass test to get my speakers where i want them. Just bass. They break in sound quality very good. Im no pro at audio setting but they sure do great. Im deciding to buy a 18 inch single subwoofer for passenger floor since. My vehicle is only for me to drive around.

Great review 👍. I installed these speakers on my 2001 Accord . 6.5 in the front and 6x9 in the back . They do lack bass, but highs and mid's are great . Great price and good upgrade option over stock speakers

@@raywright1169 I bought 6 3/4 2-way Component (front) and 6.5 3-way (rear) for my Kia Soul. These speaker's shown in the video sound great but they do lack Bass, excellent for mids and high's. Now the component setup is excellent, full range and so loud I have to fade to the back. I really want to install a set of component speakers in the rear just don't know where I would mount the tweeter. Soon I will have everything running off of my KAC-744 Kenwood 4ch amp (old-school) and the two Prime 10" subwoofers running off the p500x2 amp. Lastly, to answer your question in short no and sorry if repeated myself.. In my opinion these are meant to be paired with a subwoofer. The kia stock paper cone speaker was full range and has hard bass but lacked mids and high's which are mounted in the rear doors. They also are rated at 20watts RMS. Once my setup is completed I will give a updated reply.

You need an amp with 99% aftermarket speakers guys. So many negative reviews about lacking bass. No, your speakers aren’t lacking bass. It’s your 20W RMS headunit lacking power to drive the bigger magnets....

Nice video dude, and they sound about average in your box enclosure, but that's not their intended purpose. The 6.5's can produce mid and some limited low end bass when they are installed in a car door, the 6X9's punch out the lower end bass notes. I have both, the 6X9's three way, and the 6.5's two way installed in my truck and the bass response is incredible. I have two videos demonstrating their bass and vocal clarity. Just search on youtube for (Rockford Fosgate car speakers pumping).

Why does my positive wire go to the small tab? Prime R1675X2 speaker. Is this backwards ? I have a black wire running to the capacitor and then going to big tab neg - side. I just bought these off Amazon and wires are screwed up. Great !

@ElectronicsForFun
@ElectronicsForFun 6 лет назад
put the small spade over the negative and the larger spade over the positive, there problem solved. there is no polarity with wires so it doesn't matter if they are labeled wrong. it will still work the same, as long as you make sure the wire going to positive terminal on the speaker goes to the positive terminal on the amp and same goes for the negative.

If you place them in the door environment in which they were designed to operate in the bass response will be better. I think they may have sounded better if you had ported the box rather than put them in a sealed enclosure.

Nice job - reminds me of a box i built back in the eighties! put on the back of a moped (radio & cassette player!! . Good review! I need to upgrade some door speakers. Homing in on the correct rating for the amp is key... What's the spec (Peak and RMS) on that digital amp driving the speakers.
@GreenTechNetwork
@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад
Glad you like it! The amp is an LP2020A+ (uses the TA2020 IC) that is capable of 22 watts RMS per channel at 4 ohms. I'm not sure what the peak wattage is though to be honest.

@ElectronicsForFun
@ElectronicsForFun 6 лет назад
it's pretty easy. just build a box or get a box, and cut holes in it for the speakers and holes for your other components and then wire it all up. different stereos and amps have different wiring patterns so just look up a wiring diagram if you aren't sure how to sire everything up, l am sure there are wiring diagrams for basic stuff like that.

coaxial speakers are not good for the beach since the tweeter is mounted on a phase plug the voice coil is totally exposed. all it takes is one kick of sand and a few days worth of salty air for those drivers to lock up and be ruined. what you should get are some marine speakers that have a rubber surround between the tweeter and the phase plug, or get some component speakers with no phase plug so there is nothing exposed to the sand and salty air.

An lot of folks are right with saying its not a capacitor but those saying its a crossover are wrong too..its just a resistor to filter out frequencies
@ElectronicsForFun
@ElectronicsForFun 6 лет назад
actually it's a capacitor, and it is a crossover. most people just call it a filtering cap because that is technically what is and does, but it's the absolute basic bare bones type of crossover system since there is only 1 component but it is still the speaker's crossover because it preforms the same purpose of a full on crossover... it's just not as good as a full on crossover.

Lol. I can tell your age by two factors. 1. The way you say fosgate. 2. Not knowing what the "capacitor" in line with positive terminal is. It's a resistor, for filtering out low hz. Aka inline filter.

With that type of power, these will not perform up to potential. No matter what speaker you use, you will get clipping using that amp.

@TokersDomain
@TokersDomain 6 лет назад
Just check the RMS power of your amp per channel. They can run fine off of HU power, but they perform better w/ 40-50wrms each. More power never hurts, just set the gains correctly. its a good, versatile speaker for all types of projects.

Caps on speakers are always for voting certain signals. In this case they are cutting lower signals from the tweeters to protect them. Further more capacitors for stored energy are only ever used for car audio amplifier. Smh. BTW hope you keep the sand out of those tweeters.
