JL Audio C2-525x
The JL Audio C2-525x is a 5.25″ (13 cm) two-way coaxial car speaker from the C2 series, which combines real silk dome tweeter performance, smooth midrange and powerful midbass in a wide range of sizes. The DMA-optimised woofer rolls off smoothly with no upper-midrange harshness, while the coaxially mounted 0.75-inch pure silk dome tweeter delivers smooth, extended response on and off axis. Its small size keeps protrusion to just 12 mm, so the C2-525x fits behind most factory grilles.
Key Features
- DMA-Optimised Woofer: Proprietary motor, suspension and cone modelling systems reduce distortion, improve transient performance and deliver better bass response.
- Pure Silk Dome Tweeter: 19 mm (0.75″) silk dome diaphragm for smoother, cleaner sound with excellent off-axis response.
- Smooth Woofer Roll-Off: Well-dampened cone and suspension minimise ringing and transition smoothly to the tweeter.
- Tweeter Protection: High-pass tweeter filter with a solid-state protection circuit.
- Easy Installation: Multiple hole patterns, breakaway mounting tabs and minimal tweeter protrusion for factory-location fitment.
