JL Audio 99020 Evolution C3 Series 5.25" Convertible Component Speaker System (Pair)

2-Way Convertible Component / Coaxial System: 5.25-inch (130 mm) Woofer, 1-inch (25 mm) Silk Dome Tweeter

There are times when an installation calls for a separate woofer and tweeter and other times when a coaxial is the better approach. With the Evolution® C3 Convertible Component Systems, the same product can be deployed in either configuration, delivering outstanding audio power and quality in each application.

The C3-525 system features 5.25-inch (130 mm) component woofers with oversized 1.2-inch (30.5 mm) voice coils, mineral-filled polypropylene cones and injection-molded polymer baskets. The woofer design benefits from JL Audio's vast woofer design experience and advanced modeling systems.

The C3 tweeters are built with 1-inch silk dome diaphragms that deliver powerful, extended response, on and off axis. Flush-mounting and surface-mounting fixtures are included to fit a wide variety of installation needs. They can also be mounted onto the woofers in a coaxial format using the included fixtures.

C3 crossover networks are compact and built with premium component parts, including Mylar® capacitors and segmented air-core inductors. Four levels of tweeter attenuation are provided, as well as three levels of mid-range presence adjustment, for twelve possible voicing combinations!

Woofer grilles are included, each consisting of a black grille tray and a black steel mesh grille with an electroformed JL Audio logo.

Sold as a pair.

Features:

  • Woofer Technology
    The C3 woofers are 100% new designs aimed at raising the bar for midbass performance, dynamic stability and fidelity of response.
  • Tweeter Technology
    The C3 tweeter is a true, edge-driven 1-inch (25mm) silk dome that excels on or off axis and offers very smooth and flat frequency response to well beyond 20 kHz.
  • Crossover Technology
    Getting your C3's dialed in couldn't be simpler thanks to their sophisticated 2-way crossover networks.
  • Coaxial? Component? You decide.
    C3 Convertible Components give you the option of installing the speakers as separate component speaker systems or as coaxial systems.
