About this deal

High sensitivity allows a wide range of power to provide great sound without overdriving the audio system.

The GTO629s are conventional two-way mid-tweet type coaxial speakers using a six-inch (152 mm) mid-range and one-inch (25 mm) textile dome tweeter. Having the speaker resistance slightly under the amps minimum rating is going to be pushing the amp a little harder, but it WILL give you extra volume. On Count Basie's “Take the A Train,” the Bosendorfer grand piano sounds open and natural without much unwanted coloration.In here, my references are always the same and I can more easily detect small differences in equipment. I found the Swivel Base for our new TV by going into E Bay and entering Swivel Base for TV and I found Elite Electronic's Studio Acoustics SW 24 Swivel Base which I purchaed free postage using Pay Pal. Three-ohm voice coils in GTO 629 speakers allow compensation for any added resistance by thin factory-installed speaker wiring. The JBL car speakers are advertised at 2 Ohms but their description makes it seem as if they can be used with a 4 ohm system.

All in all, the system's response curve is relatively flat and, dare I say, flatter than a few systems I've measured that cost considerably more money. You can also easily adjust the tweeter output from 0 to +3 decibels to compensate for low and off-axis mounting positions or road noise. Carbon-injected Plus One cones are larger than others in their size class, meaning they move more air and make more bass. You'll find JBL's unique Plus One woofer cone design at work here, which expands the diaphragm area of the cone to give you better low-frequency response. Regular readers of my test reports know I prefer to audition new products in my listening room instead of in a car.The JBL GTO629 speakers are a fantastic choice for car audio enthusiasts seeking high-quality sound reproduction, impressive bass response, and versatile installation options to elevate their in-car listening experience. To improve aim and focus of the angle-mounted tweeter output, JBL's UniPivot system allows it to rotate almost 360 degrees. I simply prefer more high frequency output and, as I said in the beginning, it's important to judge what sounds best to you. Edge-driven tweeters also have better dispersion characteristics and allow a lower crossover frequency, which improves imaging. Its specifications make it suitable for a variety of vehicles and its construction ensures longevity and durability.

A wide frequency response that extends beyond 20kHz helps to compensate for speaker-placement variations in your car and for human hearing deficiencies in the high-frequency spectrum above 15kHz. It's not as loud as I thought they would be so I tried them out on my Tahoe with an aftermarket amp and they sounded great. In automobiles, coaxial speakers are two- or three-way loudspeakers with the tweeter, or the tweeter and a mid-range driver, mounted in front of the woofer, partially obscuring it. JBL created their GTO629 6-1/2" speakers as a hi-fi solution for those who want better sound in their vehicle. So what they're implying is that this is designed to work in the 4 Ohm speaker class and that they expect that your speaker wiring will add an extra Ohm to the equation.Coaxial speakers sound significantly better than typical low-end single cone speakers, even ones having a whizzer cone added to ostensibly improve sound quality. As part of JBL's renowned GTO Series, these speakers are engineered to deliver accurate and dynamic sound reproduction, making them an excellent choice for upgrading your car's audio system. inch speaker is a car speaker designed to provide a significant upgrade to any standard car audio system.
