A-Series MAX TS-A653FH 6.5” 2-Way Speakers (Pair) – 340W Max, Balanced Sound + Smooth Treble, Enhanced Bass, Ideal Factory Upgrade, Installation Adaptors Included

A-series Max TS-A653FH Fitment is straightforward with the included brackets. Soundquality is awesome. I am using the stock Nissan Juke Stereodeck and they handle the power far better without distortion until the deck reaches it's own limits

Clear sound with just enough bass for a noticeable improvement.

Works with 2010 Mini Cooper S Mayfair - Sounds good!

INITIAL REVIEW: So I scoured the Internet for reviews on Pioneers new line of A series speakers to no avail. Only reviews for the old line. I watched their clip on what they were trying to achieve with the new line, but that's all I could find. Price: There are a lot of speaker choices in this price range, and a fairly large jump in price for the next tier. I was happier with the previous A series in my Datsun, so decided to go with these again. Anyways, I bought the 6.5" coaxial Max. Install in a 2015 Genesis coupe. Since they're coaxial, I opted to install these ones in the rear, before buying and putting in all the work to install components in the front. I am running a Pioneer Nex 2660 deck. Currently no amps or subs. Firstly I installed one side only. Using balance to swap between rear right pioneer, and stock rear left. Very clearly they sing a little louder and much clearer, particularly in vocals. Zero decernable bass. However neither did the stock provide that. End result in quality, a flat out upgrade in every way over stock in sound. What became most apparent is that I don't believe these are meant to be installed without an amp. I will install a 4 channel amp next, and I have a feeling the sound quality will likely improve as nearly any stereo deck only outputs 15 watts rms, and these consume up to five times that. That said, I am hesitant to install these on the front just yet. I feel that if your car, like my Genesis coupe, has very bassy fronts, you'll only have top end, and it won't sound right. Again, they provide no bass on deck power. Maybe this will change when on a larger stand alone amp, but I doubt it. Additionally, if this is the top of the line for the A series, I wouldn't bother with the cheaper tier speakers in this new line. Especially on deck power. You'll likely be disappointed. Tuning: I played with the equalizer on the deck a bit. They are definitely mid high range. Using the preset vocal equalizer, they sound like I imagine they're supposed to. Any other setting and they fell out of range. The end result being, if you have a good subwoofer, they'll probably fill in cleanly. Packaging: very basic, polystyrene molded wrapped in cardboard shell with label. The box doesn't even mention A Series MAX, which I found odd, nor does it have almost any details. The box is imo outdated and unimpressive or eye catching. Strange, considering they are relaunching the whole A series line... Appearance: The speakers themselves look a little plain and nothing special. The goldish color looks nice though, assuming you ever see it again. The magnet is pretty small and they are very shallow mount, which could be a good thing depending on your ride. For the Genesis, they're easily 30% smaller and lighter than stock. Ultimately nothing special or any nice details to make a note of. Wiring: The wiring pigtail is thin wire. 16 gauge at best. The speakers use narrow spade terminals. Feels cheap, but pretty common for this tier of speakers. I'll update when I decide on fronts, subwoofer, and amplifier for these speakers. All in all, they're okay. Better than Kicker CS series? Hopefully yes, when amped.

I wanted to update the stereo and sound on my 89 240sx. Was considering adding a sub and amp, but holy canoli these things sound amazing. I had one weird issue with the polarity of one speaker but it might be the car wiring more than anything. Once I got that figured out the highs are crisp, clear and for it being an older car and no sub, the bass is rich and sounds great in the car.

I was always confused and did not know which one is better to buy, Pioneer or JBL.. But in the end I bought Pioneer and specifically this version. Indeed, with Pioneer you hear all the details of the song with clarity and very high accuracy, whether the sound is high or low. In addition, the Bass sound is very pure and deep. I installed it in my Toyota Corolla 2022 model with sound Deadening from Soundskins for the doors.. Really a new experience and a completely different sound.. Thank you Pioneer. As for the seller, he is professional and an authorized agent for Pioneer and is always ready to answer any questions that come to your mind

Very nice Replacement for factory speakers, fit in a 2023 vw jetta, with provided mounting adapter. Highly recommend.

Pioneer has TERRIBLE customer service when I had a speaker go out it took a month for any type of reply just to find out I have to waste more time and money by sending them my product and waiting longer for an answer doesn’t make sense.

I used these to replace my OEM VW passat speakers. These are nicer sounding, and I had no issues with the speaker install (though you will need an adapter and cable to use these in a VW). I don't have any complaints, I will update if I have any issues at a future date. Also; I bought from Amazon Warehouse and they were in perfect condition, except I was missing a cable, though I didn't need it. For VW install: If you are also replacing VW speakers you'll also need an height adapter, cable adapter, door clips (they're circular vortex looking things that pop into the door), torx t30 (that's at least like 1" long to reach), some kind of hex key that fits into a t30 or a t30 right angle key style (since very low torque I used hex key), flathead/metal pry tool (take out clip things from metal part of door), trim tool of some kind or again a flathead if you don't care about damage. And a few hours per door, take your time, I didn't take out all the wires either, just rotated the door out of the way and rested it on a bit of wood.

Sound quality is pretty good. The sound is smoother more refined than my alpines, not as raw, but not as loud.

today i got the fake one inside the box really bad 👎🏻
