JBL GTO Series high-fidelity speakers are the ideal upgrade for
any auto or audio enthusiast looking to transform the driving
experience. These 6.5-inch, 3-ohm, carbon-injected coaxial
speakers feature larger cones for more bass, patented UniPivot
tweeters for directed sound, and dual-level tweeter volume
adjustment for optimal placement. Easy to install and built to
last, they're designed for the challenging conditions inside and
outside today's automobiles. Available in common factory sizes,
they fit most vehicles.
Review: Eardrum destroyer - You wannna blow your ears out? Then
get these speakers. I put them in my 03 Tahoe and let me tell you
they can fill the entire truck by themselves. They fit perfectly
and I didn’t use any of the provided speaker cover adapter but
the screw provided hold it in nice and tight . They are extremely
clear and loud but they do get a little distorted if you put them
up high high my head unit goes to 40 and if you go that high
except a little distorted sound on some bass but it shouldn’t be
that loud anyway I run them at 35 and they are loud and clear.
Were they worth the 160 bucks or however much they were? Yes
absolutely. They look amazing sound amazing and are amazing.
Review: ALPINE guy buying JBL speakers?? - Hope they fit!!!
Theses speakers are AMAZING!! I haven’t even installed them, and
I’m impressed!!! This is the SAME company that makes Infinity
6.5” Infinity speakers?? I bought both of them, and the Infinity
6.5’s are going back! These GTO’s are HEAVY speakers! Thick
baffleles, the surrounds that make the bass. The tweeters are
large, rotate, fantastic! I’m SO sorry I bought the 6.5” Infinity
speakers as well. HAVE to return them ASAP, cheap Chinese junk!!!
The GTO baffles are thick and rigid, the Infinity baffles feel
paper thin! The magnets are really heavy! I LOVE Focal speakers
as well, but their tweeters don’t pivot like these do. These are
awesome speakers! Just holding them, you KNOW you bought a
quality speaker! I cannot wait to have these installed!! I’m so
very impressed without even installing them yet! The quality is
so evident! I’m sending the Infinity Reference Chinese junk
speakers back, and ordering two more of these GTO’s!! And THATS
how impressed I am with these 6.5” speakers!! I LOVE ALPINE, have
a brand new ALPINE high-end head unit just installed but I
honestly believe these speakers are better for the price than the
ALPINE 6.5” speakers I originally was going to buy. That says a
lot! I LOVE that you can pivot the tweeters exactly where you
want them to be. Combined with ALPINE’s speaker time alignment
feature in the HU, this is going to be fantastic!! I was amazed
at how heavy these speakers are! Heavier than ALPINE’s, almost
TWICE as heavy as Infinity 6.5” speakers, so upset I bought them!
But you cannot tell on the internet 😔. Now I have to return them
and buy two more JBL GTO 629’s. Oh well, I have 50% of my
speakers. Cannot wait to hear this symphony in my Honda CRV!!!
Even with the cheap stock Honda speakers, this new ALPINE HU
sounds fantastic! I cannot imagine what it will sound like with
all 4 JBl GTO’s!! I truly wanted the ALPINE 6.5” speakers, but
they don’t have, in my opinion, better quality than these JBL GTO
629 speakers have, and this is from someone who spent $1,500.00+
in 1987 ($3,000.00+ today’s $$!) on a total ALPINE system for my
first new car I bought When I was 18 y.o., I was SO PROUD of that
car! If that doesn’t tell you how big a fan of an ALPINE I am,
then nothing will! I honestly believe these JBL GTO’s are a
little superior to the comparable ALPINE 6.5” speakers, and I’ve
heard them both. It was so close! But the JBL’s are more
sensitive per watt, and the quality of construction is a wee bit
better. That’s from an ALPINE lifelong fan! I would NEVER BUY any
HU (head unit), amp, or sub, but from ALPINE, PERIOD. But these
speakers are AMAZING! And even though they are not ALPINE, for
the money, I believe they are the best. That’s hard for me to
say, but the truth. And I WANT the best for my money. ALPINE will
ALWAYS be my brand of choice, but I didn’t want to buy their
separate speaker package, as I will sell this car in a few years.
Just put in a Wallmart radio, replace the Honda speakers, and
sell it, no problem. Put in high-end ALPINE separate speakers?
(Sub/mids/tweeters?) Problem I don’t want. You cannot go wrong
with these JBL GTO 6.5” speakers!!
