165AC 6.5" Coaxial Kit

Audiophile sound quality. Nothing else matters.

Sounds great even with a stock head unit. So glad I purchased when these were 40% off. What a steal.

Focal make great speakers. I put these in the rear doors of my daughter’s car and the same series in front doors with treaters in the pillars. Make sure you sound mat inside the doors and inclose the door with mat. These middle of the road line from Focal sound good. I have the K2’s, other than power handling, they sound just as good.

Absolutely amazing sound quality. Good base value added. You can listen to sound quality in video, do know static is in sound either way and may be clearer then what comes across phone. Durable. Only issue as to why I’m giving them 4 stars is bc my factory speakers are louder than what these are. Not by much but are still louder.

I was looking for the highest line of speakers that I would be able to fit into the door panels of my Kia Forte without any obstructions and originally I bought the ICU165 for the front doors mainly for the hybrid polyglass cone material and short mounting depth. Then after I little measuring and some further research I discovered that with the Metra (82-7303) 1.1" height mounting bracket I could increase the clearance of the magnet behind the cone to about 30mm. This meant I could move up to the Focal Access line (165AC) and shorten the distance to 10mm and still not make contact with the sliding power windows, even with upgraded 14awg speaker wire and custom terminals. Consequently, I moved the ICU165s to the rear doors with the same brackets. And finally, I obtained some XTC slim-line foam speaker baffles for all 4 speakers for mid-bass gains, cut out a small hole for the terminals, and it all barely managed to fit with just 2mm to spare. Needless to say it was all put together and blended perfectly with my previous sound deadening and sound absorption efforts all around the car. I have to say the fiberglass cones make a dramatic difference in sound quality, especially across the midrange, over most polypropylene cones even the polyglass ones that Focal makes when paired with a modest amplifier imo.

Put these in my camper. Head unit has 25W RMS per channel. Plenty of power to make these sound awesome. The original head unit had 6W RMS per channel and did not power these well at all (they sounded like crap!).

Bought for my sons tahoe. Sounds great with rockford amp 100x4 puts my Infinity kappas to shame.

I purchased these thinking they’d blow my alpines outta the water, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. Maybe it’s just my setup, but they didn’t even come close to sounding as good as my Alpine S-S65C S series 6.5 inch speakers. For what they’re charging, I was expecting to be blown away.

As part of a basic stereo upgrade, I bought these to put in the rear of my Ford Fiesta ST 3 door hatch which used a factory 6.5" coaxial Sony speaker. The Focal fitted in its place no problems, and it's a much better quality speaker. Hard to compare sound directly from original vs Focal, because I have added an amplifier to drive the Focals whereas the factory Sony speakers were running off the head unit. But with amplification and some sound deadening, the Focals have some real punch and go nice and loud.

Fantastic und professional

Montés en remplacement des HP d'origine, l'amélioration est très significative. Son clair, aigus abondants et agréables, pour les basses, il faudra attendre une petite heure de rodage à fort volume avant d'apprécier leur rendu: en net progrès par rapport aux RCX 165, le résultat est vraiment très bon pour des HP de 165mm. La qualité de l'enregistrement reste prépondérante et le montage devra être soigné. Je n'ai encore jamais été déçu par des Focal.

Très bon son

Ottimo prodotto. Qualità del suono elevata
