JBL GTO939 GTO Series 6x9" 300W 3 Way Black Car Coaxial Audio Speakers Stereo

I am so glad I spent the money to get these. There are a lot of decent options under $100.. and I did a lot of reading and I kept coming back to these.Perfect fit in 2012 Dodge Charger. They look very robust and they appear to built well. Audio is perfect and clear even at high levels with no to little audio distortion. I have the gain on the amp barely turned up because it gets too loud at lower levels. They function better than I was expecting.I was considering adding a subwoofer, but with how heavy the bass is on these I do not feel that I will need to add a subwoofer as theses provide a perfect amount of bass.I will be buying 4 more of these for my Jeep Wrangler and use on the stock head unit.

A lot of stock audio systems run 2 ohms which limits the speakers available to buy should you blow a factory one. My Grand Cherokee L had such an issue and I went through a few options until FINALLY running across these. I checked fitment and Crutchfield said these wouldn't fit but given the lack of options I figured I'd give it a try anyway. They do fit just fine the ONLY issue is the stock screwholes are a little off from the screwtabs but it works. You can't install the grills but since they are behind your door panel grill it's not necessary anyway. The sound is pretty good from the stock amp and handles more RMS than the stock system can put out. I was hoping for a little more depth in the bass performance but it's as good as stock or better. Highly recommend them if you just need to replace a blown speaker and don't want to go through the hassle of adding an output converter, amp, etc.

Great speaker better than factory speakers better bass.

i bought the JBL GX963 300W 6" X 9" 3-Way GX Series Coaxial Car Loudspeakers from amazon for around $90 and they were a big upgrade from the OEM in my 2015 Jeep Cherokee KL - but they delivered very little bass even playing with the levels. So I went for these for the back doors and they def deliver a noticeable amount of bass that will shake your car and you'll feel it in the seat. I would skip the GX963 and spend the extra money. I'm sending back the GX963 and getting another pair of these.That said, I def had to cut the plastic molding inside the door to make room for the extra width of these speakers. But it was really easy and each side was cut with a serrated shop knife in 2 minutes. Again, for my 2015 Jeep Cherokee. Make sure you get the little connectors to make the wire hook up a breeze.Also, if you're not brave about removing the liners and doing these yourself, it was really very easy. Theres tons of youtube videos. The liners had 3 small screws, popped off and popped back in. Total time to unmount, cut the molding, change the speaker, and remount the liner was 5 minutes each side - and that corrected 10 years of bad sound in my car.

Nice product for the price.

Edit: I've now had these speakers installed for almost 15 months, and they still sound incredible. I now have a Pioneer AVH-X2800BS with the EQ set on flat, going into a Clarion EQS-746 for EQ and pre-amp up to 7 volts, going into my Polk PA 330. This combo is working very well, as live tracks truly sound like being at the concert.The bass that comes out of these speakers blows my mind. At times, it sounds like there's a 10" subwoofer hitting the low notes with precision, but it's just these two 6x9's (I have my rears turned off). These speakers are everything you'd want in a car stereo!* * * *I've been using these for just over two months now. I have them set up with a Kenwood HD-458U head unit (http://amzn.to/1Myu4fc) and a Polk PA 330 (http://amzn.to/1MmyfHB) amp. The amplifier sends 100W RMS x 2, at 2 ohms, which is exactly the max these loudspeakers recommend. Although my head unit only has basic controls (bass, mid, treble, bass boost), I have still tweaked it to sound very good with these speakers.I am running only these two speakers in my truck - I've turned off the rear speakers.If you really want to get the most out of these speakers, I'd suggest getting a head unit with at least a 5-band parametric EQ, if not even a 10-band EQ. That'll be my next upgrade, since my last head unit had a 5-band, and I was able to get even better results (with other speakers) with the sound tune.Sound Characteristics:Bass - These speakers are strong enough to produce almost the amount of bass you'd get from a 10" subwoofer. I used to load my vehicles up with subwoofers, but I now prefer SQ over SPL, and these full-range speakers are perfect for that. You'll get rich mid-bass and deep bass frequencies form these JBL's - enough to fill the cab of any car.Mids - The mids are delicious, as shown when listening to Adele Live at Royal Albert Hall (http://amzn.to/1MmyH8K) or Jason Mraz Live: Tonight Not Again (http://amzn.to/1MmyJNQ). The singers' voices just float up to your ears, as if you're sitting in the front row. Vocal tones are rich and sonorous, although it really depends on how the source was recorded. Some tracks on Ed Sheeran's + (http://amzn.to/20KJZNJ) make his voice sound a bit tinny, like it was recorded in a small barrel. These instances are by and large the exception, however.Highs - A few reviewers mentioned setting the switch on the speakers to -3dB, but after testing, I kept mine on 0dB. I like the extra highs, and when tuned properly, it doesn't induce the scratching in my left ear that my tinnitus will activate when I listen to things too loudly. The highs in these speakers are so clear and pronounced, that even though my speaker location is in the doors right next to the floor, the sound stage is lifted all the way up to my head. This makes for some fantastic listening.A True LoudspeakerMy last setup was an active crossover 3-way setup with Polk DB6501 components, and amped (50W RMS x 2) Pyramid W64 6.5" bass drivers, driven by an Alpine CDA-9835 (27W RMS x 4) in 3-way mode. Although the SQ was better in that setup, the JBL GTO938's are enjoyable in a different way. They add vibrancy to the music with their full-range capability.These are truly an all-in-one solution for car audio, and if you're willing to turn off the rear speakers and settle for just these loudspeakers up front (amped, of course), you'll be very happy!

Perfect
