Features
Woofers: The Alpine Type-R series component speakers feature woofer cones made of hybrid layered-pulp with mica coating for great bass response. For durability and superior linearity, the woofers have rubber surrounds.
Motor Structure: The High-performance Linear Drive Motor structure features a large magnet that is almost as big as the voice coil diameter. Its dual radial magnet and twin gap, combined with a square, edge-wound voice coil, gives the diaphragm linear movement over a much greater range. This design allows the speaker to be faithful to the input signal even during high excursion, for accurate musical reproduction and deep bass.
Adapter Rings: The SPR-17S component speakers come with two pairs of adapter rings. One set of rings allows you to install the woofers in 3-hole 6-3/4" GM/Chrysler installations or 3-hole 6-1/2" installations. The other set of rings will adapt the woofers for 6"x8" openings.
Tweeters
Tweeters: The SPR-17S component speakers are equipped with 1" (25mm) silk ring-dome tweeters for greater detail and bright, crisp highs.
Tweeter Mounting Options: The tweeters come installed in a swiveling flush-mount cup. You can also install the tweeters in a stealth mount when it will be hidden behind a factory grille. The stealth mount can be used as a top mount or a bottom mount.

Tweeter Attenuation: The crossover has a 7-level tweeter adjustment to allow you to precisely tune your high frequencies. Using the supplied jumpers, you can select 0dB (no attenuation), or 6 levels of attenuation: -3dB, -4dB, -5dB, -6dB, -7dB and -8dB.
Input/Output Connections: The crossover features gold-plated screw terminals for the amplifier inputs and the woofer and tweeter outputs. The screw terminals are hidden by the crossover cover.

I installed these speakers in an 07 Toyota Tundra and they're powered by a 5-channel Eclipse amp at only 50 watts RMS. The sound is excellent. I had the previous generation speaker in a Nissan Titan and the tweeters were so bright they were piercing.
