Recoil RCX694 Echo Series 6x9in Car Audio Four-Way Coaxial Speaker System

The Recoil RCX694 Echo Series is a 6x9-inch, 4-way coaxial car audio speaker system designed as an affordable and straightforward upgrade over factory-installed speakers. 

Key specifications

• Speaker Type: 6x9-inch (152 x 228mm), 4-way coaxial.
• Design: A coaxial design places the tweeters and midrange drivers in the center of the woofer, offering a full-range audio experience from a single, easy-to-install unit.
• Power Handling:
  • Peak Power: 240 Watts per pair (120W each).
  • RMS Power: 120 Watts per pair (60W each).
• Woofer Cone: Lightweight, thermal-formed polypropylene cones for high output and accurate frequency reproduction.
• Surround: Nitrile butadiene rubber for durability and enhanced mid-bass impact.
• Tweeters: The 4-way design includes a 58mm mylar midrange driver, a 28mm Tetoron tweeter, and an 18mm Piezo tweeter, each with a built-in crossover.
• Frequency Response: 55–20,000 Hz.
• Impedance: 4Ω. 

Performance and ideal setup

• Sound Quality: The RCX694 speakers provide a noticeable improvement over basic factory speakers, with good bass response and clear mids and highs. However, their multi-driver design is aimed at filling out the sound more than providing true high-fidelity audio.
• Installation: As a coaxial system, they are easy to install for DIY enthusiasts and fit many factory 6x9-inch locations. They come with grilles for added protection.
• Powering the speakers: While they can function with a factory head unit, they will perform best with an aftermarket amplifier. An amplifier that can provide 60–120 watts per channel will help achieve clearer sound at higher volumes and prevent damage to the drivers.
• Bass Performance: While the 6x9-inch size provides a decent amount of bass, users seeking a heavy or powerful low-frequency response will want to supplement the system with a dedicated subwoofer.
