Two-way component speaker with a 165mm woofer and a 26mm tweeter. Rated 95W continuous and 285W peak with a frequency range of 55–22.5kHz.


Crisp, detailed treble - thanks to the 26mm neodymium tweeter

A 26mm tweeter with a neodymium magnet concentrates magnetic flux for fast diaphragm movement and extended response to 22.5kHz. The lightweight construction allows rapid transient response and clearer high-frequency detail.

Clear, pronounced treble improves percussion and vocal detail, helping tracks sound more open and refined in the car.

Controlled midbass - with a 165mm woofer and 25mm voice coil

The 165mm woofer uses a 25mm (1 in) voice coil and a high-density flux ferrite magnet to control cone excursion and manage midbass output. The motor structure focuses energy for steady low-mid performance.

Tighter bass reduces boominess in small cabins and creates better separation between instruments for more accurate playback.

High power headroom - thanks to 95W RMS and 285W peak handling

A continuous rating of 95W and peak handling of 285W allow the speaker to withstand dynamic peaks without immediate overload. Robust power handling gives margin for louder listening and transient-rich material.

Ample headroom lets listeners push levels on demanding tracks while maintaining clarity and reducing distortion.

✨ The 4 Key Reasons for HERTZ 2-way component speaker
  1. 26mm neodymium tweeter - delivers crisp, detailed treble across high frequencies for clear percussion and vocals
  2. High-density ferrite woofer magnet - provides tight bass response and consistent low-end control
  3. Wide frequency response (55–22.5kHz) - captures both deep bass and extended highs for full-range listening
  4. 95W RMS / 285W peak handling - handles peaks without strain, preserving clarity at volume
