Review on High-Performance Dayton Audio DC160-4 6-1/2" πŸ”Š Classic Woofer Speaker: A Dynamic Sound Experience by Richard Mangum

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Replacement speakers for my '96 Ford Explorer XLT.

Purchased to replace a poor mid-bass driver in a recently purchased '96 Explorer XLT. My first choice would be a factory replacement from a Ford dealer, but that part is no longer available so the search began for a speaker that would fit in the factory box without modification and produce a nice clean sound. It was an exact fit and even the cable connectors slipped right in with a little tweaking! I googled a bit to find the info to make sure the polarity is in sync (black/light green +, black/white -), installed it in minutes and very happy with the sound. I wasn't looking for competitive sound, just a comfortable listening experience, and while I've never heard a JBL system with a properly working woofer (the bulky foam completely collapsed over time!), I'm sure it restored the sound has quality. close to the factory original. Really nice sound!

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Operating speed
