The Polk Audio dbk6501 is a pair of two-way car speakers. These dome-shaped speakers are made with a polypropylene cone material and a butyl rubber woofer surround. The Polk Audio speakers have 4 Ohms of impedance per voice coil. The frequency response is 35 Hz to 23 kHz, and the sensitivity is 92 dB. The peak power handling is 300 watts and the RMS power handling is 100 watts. The size of these Polk Audio speakers is 6.5 inches. The product is designed as a two-way component system and the speakers are marine certified. These devices are considered to be shallow mount speakers, meaning they do not require as much space to install them as is needed with traditional speakers. The top-mount depth for the Polk Audio dbk6501 is 2 inches and the bottom-mount depth is 2.31 inches. The cutout dimensions of these two-way car speakers are 5 inches by 5 inches. The Polk Audio speakers were designed to be used as an addition to a factory or aftermarket audio system.

ElementsThis is the number of actual projecting devices. The greater the number of elements, usually the higher the quality of sound produced.
Component System
Car Speaker TypeCoaxial speakers, also known as two-way speakers, usually have more than one speaker mounted together but driven separately. This generally allows for better sound quality, especially at higher frequencies. Component speakers are independent speakers that need to be coupled with others for a full range of sound. Component systems are combinations of individual speakers that have already been selected to work well with one another.
Tweeter
Car Speaker FunctionThese different types of speakers produce certain frequencies of sound. Subwoofers are best at the lowest bass frequencies, tweeters are for the highest, and mid-range are for everything in between.

Polymer Composite
Woofer MaterialThe type of material your woofer is made out of depends on the sound quality you are looking for and how much money you are willing to spend.
Paper
Paper (pulp) woofers are the least expensive, but if properly engineered can provide great sound. However, they should not be overused in car speakers because of their susceptibility to moisture.
Poly / Plastic
Possibly the most-used material for car speakers, poly and plastic are weather-resistant and have good internal damping.
Composite
Mica, CMMD (Ceramic Metal Matrix Diaphragm), Glass-imides, HCL (Honeycomb-Laminate), and IMPP are all types of composite materials used for speakers cones. These materials are non-resonant, stiff and strong. They all create uncolored sound with excellent dispersion.
Metal
Cast metals have greater resistance to resonance than stamped metals. Cast aluminum is not only lightweight but also very strong.

Tweeter SizeA tweeter is a small driver dedicated to high-frequency reproduction. There are several types all with their own attributes. Generally the technology involved will have a significant bearing on the overall price of the tweeter.
Cone
Cone tweeters are the most common and economical. They have proven to be an efficient and cheap option for a reasonable level of sound quality.
Dome
Dome or "edge-driven" tweeters are the type found in most home speakers. They have excellent clarity and sound dispersion.
Whizzer
Unlike most tweeter types which move independently of the woofer, a whizzer is a small paper cone fixed to the woofer's center. Both cones move along a common axis reducing the disconnect that can occur between the two speakers from different angles. The result is a very natural sound.
Horn
Horn tweeters deliver low-distortion and superb high frequency sound.
Rubber
Surround MaterialTypes of surround material have certain benefits and drawbacks.Foam
This is a material with polyester fibers blended in for extra strength and durability.
Cloth or Textile
This is the name for a variety of cloth fabrics used for speaker construction. Used to replicate the sound of silk tweeters.
Rubber
Rubber offers excellent flexibility and durability.
Butyl Rubber
A rubber/butylene compound with excellent flexibility and durability.
Santroprene
This is a popular new durable plastic material used in many different products apart from speakers.
Urethane
Urethane is a plastic compound with proven flexibility and weather resistance and is an advance on natural rubber.
