Review on Focal RSE-165 Auditor 6.5-inch 2-Way Component Speakers by Nguyen Bach ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

Midbasses are installed in Mada3 BK-1 through self-made rings in the front doors. Twitters are on the corners of the mirrors. Behind - coaxes from the same Focal RCX-165 line Connected directly to the head through the standard wiring! The doors haven’t made noise yet (but I probably won’t, the sound suits) On the other car, I also have a Focal, but with a PS-165FX in front and a PC-165F in the back. Connected via Kickx 420220, the car is noisy. This is inexplicable, but after adjusting the equalizer, the sound became comparable.

Pros
  • Good sensitivity, work from the head without an amplifier Musical sound - instruments are well detailed Soft and tight bass Reasonable price for this sound
Cons
  • High "whistling", but this is adjusted by the equalizer (band reduction 10-12 kHz) The connection terminals are not tight, they dangled, I had to tighten them with pliers (in another car there are more expensive Focal PS-165FX - the same problem, they didn’t notice this during installation and one speaker began to wheeze, it was cured by sealing the connection).

Pros below: They sound great. I don’t know why put better acoustics in a car than this. Cons: Sometimes wheezing in the cold, but it quickly passes.
