Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Pioneer's TS-A1673R 6-1/2-inch three-ways now feature upgraded power handling of 220 watts max. (35 watts nominal). This year, they also feature something they've inherited from the D-Series speakers--a basalt cone. Pioneer continues to set an example with next-generation technology for improved sound: the tweeter, magnets, surrounds, the voice coil wire, the basket and more are all high-performance components that make up a great speaker.

Pioneer's A-Series Speakers Pioneer A-series speakers outperform factory speakers on nearly every level. Packing a powerful punch, A-Series speakers are equipped with up to three independent tweeters with reinforced woofers, so every beat is heard and felt. Featuring a bigger, better cone than most OEM speakers, the A-series boasts serious output and booming bass. Extra-sensitive tweeters play at higher frequencies and are capable of handling stronger audio signals, resulting in vocals that are crisp and clear, even when you crank the volume.

TS-A1673R Features Carbon Graphite IMPP Interlaced Aramid/Basalt Fiber Cone One of Pioneer's major speaker breakthroughs was IMPP (Injection-Molded Polypropylene), which allowed cones to be lighter and more rigid. Pioneer then added long stands of Aramid fibers into the mix, for extra strength. Now, they've gone even further with the TS-A1673Rs, adding basalt and carbon graphite interlaced with long aramid fibers to provide strength and rigidity that powerful bass sound requires. High-density compressed internal architecture is resilient, stacks up against high power well and transfers sound quickly. The result is full-bodied, rich sound with midrange depth that conventional IMPP cones cannot match, and the durability to stand up to the high volume levels, humidity, and temperature extremes that thrash other speakers. Large Diaphragm Tweeter The newly developed tweeter disperses sound more widely with superior control, providing listeners with the best sound under all conditions, regardless of listening position or car. And the 1" mounting depth achieves more flexible installation. Heat Resistant Polyester-Imide Resin Voice Coil Wire Creating mechanical energy is hot work, especially at high volume levels. And as we all know, heat can cause distortion. That's why the TS-A1673R uses a heat-resistant polyester-imide resin voice coil wire. It allows the voice coil to handle more heat, improving input power handling as well as reliability. So go ahead. Turn it up. Power Handling The TS-A1673R now handles a full 220 watts max. power (35 watts nominal). Along with enhanced power handling, you still get the same high performance that all the TS-A's deliver.

5.0 out of 5 stars An AV technicians opinion, February 26, 2010

This review is from: Pioneer TS-A1673R 6.5-Inch, 220-Watt 3-Way Speakers (Electronics)

I am an AV technician (audio video) for concerts and shows. i am trained to tune the best of sounds out of the highest quality speakers.

I purchased these speakers expecting the least and was very surprised when i installed them.

These speakers sound beautiful. They are comparable to Bose or Alpine. I would most definitely recommend these to a friend.

Many people say that there isn't enough bass in these speakers. A little hint for ya... you cant just turn the bass up in your car and expect chest thumping goodness. You must adjust the mids and the lows and the power going to each hertz setting. These speakers have bass... they have tons of it. you just need to know how to pull it out of them.

So... if you want Bose quality at a low price... i totally recommend to anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good lows, highs, and mids, April 15, 2010

This set of speakers is perfect, good highs lows and mids and they fit in my car easily enough. I would definitely recommend these to anyone. I also purchased some Pyle speakers and to be honest the Pyles sound just as good as these, other than the Pyles have very cheap speaker wire. So if you REALLY need to save 20 bucks go check those out. If not I would stick with these because I am sure durability is a lot higher.
