Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Infinity's 6030cs is a 6-1/4-inch, two-way component system including Plus One woofer and 1-inch textile dome tweeter with I-mount tweeter kit and Starfish OEM adapter.

The Infinity Reference SeriesInfinity's Reference Series has been engineered to deliver best-in-class performance for those looking to replace or upgrade their factory speakers. Features like Infinity's Plus One (patent pending) woofer cones and edge-driven-dome tweeters have helped position Infinity Reference as the number-one line of automotive loudspeakers for the past six years straight.

Component Systems are the perfect platform when developing a system with superior imaging and staging.

Infinity 6030cs Features
Plus One woofer conesThis patent pending technology deliver a cone with more surface area than competing models of the same size. The result is increased bass output and higher efficiency.
Rubber surroundsThis woofer surround material provides optimum cone-edge suspension and absorbs distortions that may travel up the cone edge, adding stronger low-end.
True Four OhmsAll Reference speakers feature two ohm voice coils. Original factory-installed speaker wiring in many cars is 18-22 gauge. This wire, and heating in the voice coil when power is applied, increase the impedance "seen" by the amplifier or head unit. The impedance of Reference Speakers has been adjusted to compensate for this increase and can be safely driven by any head unit.
Edge-driven textile dome tweeterThese are not commonly used w-domes, but fully-edge-driven domes like those found in better home audio speakers. The benefit is increased power handling and reduced distortion at high output levels. This technology also allows for better integration with the mid/woofer.
Crossover network with tweeter adjustmentEach Infinity Reference component system includes a pair of laboratory optimized passive crossover networks that include tweeter adjustment. If the tweeters are located low in the doors or if you are looking for a brighter sound, you can set the tweeter at +3dB.
Versatile MountingTo facilitate proper installation and location of the tweeter, each Reference component system includes Infinity's patented I-Mount (patent no. 5,859,917) tweeter mounting kit including the Starfish OEM adapter.

Customer Reviews

I purchased a set of these about 6 months ago to replace the front factory Dodge Infinity speakers that were blown in my Durango. I just installed them and kept the factory amp and did not install the included crossovers. They sounded pretty good (the highs were much better than the factory tweeters), but the low end was lacking unless the volume was pushed up. Not a big deal since I also have a small subwoofer, but it was noticeable. When my back pair of factory Infinity's died, I purchase another pair of these and this time installed the crossovers for both front and back and added an aftermarket amplifier (Kicker ZX350.4, 90 watt per channel amp). WHAT A DIFFERENCE! The sound came alive. The lows from these are incredible and I almost don't need the sub (almost...these speakers seem to be good to around 80Hz and then fall off pretty fast, my sub is good for the lower frequencies and I have the crossover set to 80Hz for that). Still, all the way down to 80Hz is really good for 6 inch door speakers! Of course having great big Durango doors probably helps!
Anyhow, if you are getting these for your vehicle, and you want them to sound their best, you really should back them up with an aftermarket amplifier and use the included crossovers. If not, they still sound better than factory speakers, even the "premium" ones! I am very pleased with these.

I have a 2001 Dodge Durango R/T with Infinity Premium sound. I purchased these speakers to replace the stock Infinity speakers that were already in the vehicle. They installed easily and sound even better than the stock ones used too. I am so glad that I got these as a replacement.
