6-1/2" component speaker system



Stock Status: Discontinued


Product Code: 107MMC6500


Description Features Crutchfield Hands-on Research
 

Powerfully deep bass and crisp, soaring highs; that's the dynamic combination you're looking for from a serious component system. Look no further! The MMC6500, brought to you by Polk/MOMO, meets your auditory expectations, while maintaining a sleek formula-car racing look.

Revel in the distinct low mids and penetrating bass produced by the woven carbon fibre woofers, and bask in the detailed upper mids and highs delivered by liquid-cooled silk/polymer composite dome tweeters. The tweeter's neodymium magnet saves precious space without compromising sound quality — and you can swivel the tweeter up to 15° for exceptional imaging.

The woofer's cast aluminum basket eliminates disturbing resonance. Durable rubber surrounds keep your system rockin' for years to come. And you don't have to limit these speaker systems to your car — they've passed tough environmental testing that certifies them for marine use as well.

mmc6500 November 7, 2008
Reviewer: Nick from Biloxi, MS  
I purchased these speakers in early October this year, it is now early November.  For about three weeks i had these running of off the head unit.  I finally put an amp on them about a week ago pushing no more than 50 wrms to each side.  Sounded great for about 4 days, got VERY loud for 50 wrms.  Bass was weak though.  On the forth day on an amp my right tweeter blew.  On the fifth day my left tweeter and woofer blew.  I was shocked.  I don't believe these are bad speakers, read the reviews on this site and polks, you will see they can't be less than great speakers.  I believe i got a bad set.  I would love to give another shot at these, but Crutchfield discontinued them.

Reviewer: Bobby from Eaton, OH  
I've had these speakers for about a month now and I love them so far.
Easily the best sounding speakers I have ever owned. I am pushing them
with  Pioneer amp running 125 watts each and they will get loud. Very loud.
My only complaint is with the tweeter mounting cup, it is too deep for where
I wanted to mount them. This is my first experience with component sets
though so maybe they are all that way. Other than that these are great
speakers, especially for the price. And as always shopping with Crutchfield
was very easy and I'm sure I'll be back again.

Reviewer: Matt from Lebanon, OH  
These speakers aren't bad. I know everyone has been saying that they are amazing and everything. Mine are alright. I have them powered by a Rockford Fosgate P450.4 pushing 98 watts rms. These are in the rear deck of my 98 Acura CL, with a set of MMC 5250's in the front doors. These speakers are great if you don't plan on using much bass. If you're looking for bass output, get a sub, as I plan on doing, once I get the money saved up. If you're looking for good clean crisp musicality, you're in the right place. If you listen to rap, look elsewhere. If you like any kind of rock, from Blink-182 to Killswitch Engage, these are awesome. I can't crank my Alpine 9884 above 20 (it goes to 35) before I want to run away crying because it's so loud. Overall, I think I was let down by the lack of bass response from these and therefore I only rated them a 4, even though they are much better than anything I've heard.

I ordered these component speakers and the matching MMC 650 coaxials for my 2007 Tundra. I had no problems at all getting them to fit. The sound is much better than the Polk db component set and the marginal price difference makes the choice a no brainer. The install instructions were spot on for my truck and made the install much smoother. The only complaint is the speaker mount both supplied by Crutchfield and inside the speaker box were cheap plastic, and I would recommend making your own out of 3/4" MDF as they will be much sturdier. I have these and the coaxials running off a Alpine MRP-F300 and they sound great.

Reviewer: Dave from Sacramento  
Excellent sound quality and pressure level, particular for Jazz and Classical
music.  Very good build quality.  Three-stage tweeter adjustment is very
useful.  Product does NOT include the crossover adjustment switch that is
specified by the manufacturer.  Tweeter installation required time-
consuming experimentation, but worked out acceptably in the end with
parts provided by Polk.  Each crossover is the size of a half-depth brick,
requiring creative mounting solutions.  Crutchfield installation instructions
and parts were of no use for installing this product in my car.  However,
sale price and support made the purchase from Crutchfield worthwhile.
