I bought a set of these components from Robot Underground last year and they are very impressive. I have them on a recoil red600.4 amp. I paid Patrick about $42 for them and that along with the amps he sold me was one of the best deals I've got in my 39 year history in car audio. Yes since 1985. Don't hesitate to buy them.

I've been abusing mine for going on 2 years now in my car, no issues ,and still sound great!! Budget banger for sure. *As far as bass, once they're installed in a vehicle in the baffles completely sealed up, the bass is absolutely fantastic. They even get a little low. I honestly don't know how they make any money off these.

They make money because making subwoofers is really cheap. The bigger companies have a markup because of their names. Like kicker the low end subs are trash even tho they cost more than most beginner subs.

I bought a set of these 5 minutes after watching this video.. just finished installing today with some custom birch rings and im extremely impressed!For $50 you seriously can't go wrong.Thanks Big D for the review

The key for any component is to do the right tweaks for the Xover, I've got a set of Cerwin Vega components years ago for about the same price, tbh they sounded great and never blown, so yeah cheap components exist and are good if you take the time to explore its limits, always keep them at reasonable levels and don't over boost them, also also to me I always rather leave the tweeters in a separate channel but takes more time

Ive never had a set but ive heard them before, dude at work has had a set for awhile. I can tell you they are decent. I run 2 sets of the Sundown Audio SaV.2 component sets as well as a Rockford Fosgate T2 component set in my ole ladies car. The Recoil Audios sound good and so far they have held up, they wont take the power the higher end ones do but for someone who has a normal street ride, they are all you need.

I have those paired to the rea600.4 and they sound way better than expected and i paid less then 200$ for the whole setup amp included

I have this exact set of Recoil speakers in my 2013 Impala, my son's 2004 Grand Prix, and just bought some to install in my nephews car next weekend. I love all of the Recoil products I have so far. Their amps are nearly the best watt/dollar available right now and all of them will meet or exceed manufacturers rated RMS numbers. I have a Recoil DI600.1, a RED1200.1, and am picking the DI1200.1 very soon. I really think if you're on a budget like me, Recoil has very nice products for a great price and they deserve a quick look if nothing else.

Told y’all a year ago. I now have Recoil products in all 3 of my vehicles and they are truly amazing.

I installed these and their 6.5" coaxial speakers in my Chevy over the summer and an eight-inch subwoofer on a 5-channel amp. I love the sound I get from them. I got their baffle kit and seal rings for the door install. They sound great even without the subwoofer. I'm working on a mini-truck now and I am looking at their 3-way component set for the front and a set of their better 6.5' for the rear.

Bought two sets of these 8 months ago for $44.99 on Amazon and hooked them up to a Kenwood BT-232U. They sounded great and recommended them to everyone I know!

I have a 2013 BMW 128i and it came with the "BMW Professional" stereo, and when I installed my Jensen 7" touchscreen I kept the stock paper cone speakers, the stock tweeters, and the stock amp and with my Rockville W15K9D4 subs on a Sundown SAI-1750D amp, it sounds amazingly clean, but my door speakers are only like a 3.5" or 4" speaker.

I bought the Recoil 6.5 components for my front doors and Recoil 5x7 for the rear pillars in my 96 Isuzu Trooper, and the sound is pretty good for less than $100. I wanted decent sound on the cheap because I was going to sell the rig

I haven't yet stepped up to components and was curious about these on Amazon. Thank you for the review 👍

Hey D, as always bro, great content! And a great budget pick. It’s not often that I would ever try to give you advice but I know we both have in common how we hate our voices but I’d way rather hear your voice over Arthur’s. Still watched it and still loved it 🤘🏽

I got 2 of these sets for my brothers cars, one on deck power the other on a cheap ab 4channel, they sound great on both, I got the the rose golds for my wife’s car as she mostly listens to Mexican music, she loves the way it sounds, hooked up to a cheap 4ch alpine bbx, very musical and clear, clean sound.

I installed a set of these in one of our cars along an amp in the front doors and they actually sound very good especially when considering the cost! Great budget quality

I see a couple more differences in all the 2 way sets I tested. I really like the option of -2 0 +2 for the tweeter. I think only one set of components I tested had that option and they was double the money of this set.

Great video. I have a pair of the coaxial version of this set , have been in in my car for at least 1 1/2 years and still sound good. Replaced Pioneers with the Recoils and the Recoils sounded better and louder , got 50 watts rms for each and crank them almost every day and holding up well. have Recoil subs as well and they sound good too.

I just got done installing a set of K6 rockville speakers, they are budget friendly and they sound amazing!! ive been recommending to anyone looking for a set of subwoofers for their vehicles that want excellent SPL and very good SQL

The rose gold versions are very clean sounding .....go for around 100 dollars in the 6.5 component set ....and their premium version is around 150 they sound as good as sets that go for hundreds more ....I run 2 sets of def bonce 6.5s in my car audio build but if I hadn't already bought them when I found out about this company I would have went with recoil for sure

Good review Big D! I agree with you about the soft dome tweeter. Maybe it is just because we are getting older(I’m about the same age as you are) but a soft dome just sounds better, and my ears don’t get fatigued after listening for a long time. As far as the A.I. guy, I’m kinda on the fence. For small parts of the video talking about specifications, I’m ok with it. For the product specific highlights, to me it comes off as the manufacturer pushing their product. Through my iPhone 8 speaker, I could tell that they did not put out much midbass. However, those speakers are designed for all of the airspace that is typically in a car door, which is going to be more than what those boxes have. So, in theory, midbass should be a little better in a car. Either way, I like you occasionally changing things up and reviewing something different. Thanks!

I got these 5.25" compont set for $39.99. Huge improvement over stock 2002 Mazda Protege5. I liked them so much i ordered the coax set for the rear doors.

I've had these for around a year. Sounds great! Tweak the EQ a bit and you can get some nice midbass out of them without clipping. Have em paired with a Taramps DS 440x4.

Bought a set of these for a motorcycle I have . I was pleasantly surprised. I moved them to a car I have and have been listening to them for almost two years now.

Gonna have to try these out. Thanks for the video

Looks like a decent cost effective upgrade over stock speakers. The xover components looked pretty cheap but that's to be expected at this price range. gotta lower production cost somewhere and it looks like that's partly how they did it. Nice touch with the air core inductor though. Variable tweeter settings built in is also nice for the price point. overall, One of the better sets for the money I've seen lately.

Thank you for properly explaining the +2 / 0 / -2 setting in the crossover. I don't think a lot of people understand the +2 is impossible without being powered.

+2 should be relative to the woofer's efficiency

Thanks for the demo BIG D I have had bad experiences with component sets in this price range, specifically with the long term durability of the mid. First set I had was rated down to 50 hz, I hi passed at 120hz and a clean 50w rms per channel (rated 60). They lasted less than a year at moderate volume. One day the right one just went quiet and the left one went a few weeks later. Next set was around the same price but appeared higher quality (similar to these you're showing here) and I highpassed those at 160. They failed even sooner. Moral of the story- the mids provided with these cheapO components are midRANGE not midBASS!! The specs may say frequency response down to 60hz or whatever but they really aren't capable of reproducing anything below 300-400hz. You just confirmed this when you said they didn't have much bass! Anyone who buys these take it from me- set your highpass as high as possible and work your way down. I'd bet you stop hearing any fuller sound below 500hz with these. You'll need some actual woofers in your rear fill or something to cover the midbass

@petedetraglia4776

I high pass filter these at 120hz also, giving them 60 watts off the Recoil DI550.4 amp, and on a 100hz and 80hz test tones they producing good mid bass in my suv. Not subwoofer volume bass but good enough to reproduce these frequencies without over excursion of the driver...My Stinger 12 inch subwoofer rated at 700 watts RMS/ 1200 watts max, in the Stinger ported enclosure tuned to 35 hz, and subsonic filter at 30hz handles all my bass needs on the Stinger MT1000.1 mono block amp...The mid bass (500hz) you talk about I have absolutely no issue with it playing loudly and cleanly.

Awesome channel! Have you ever tested Rockville bpa10? I couldn't find anything on your channel or KZread, at least some real test like your test!

I actually have this set. Bought it a few months ago with a Jensen 2 channel amplifier. It actually sounds pretty good. Have to tweak the settings but not bad at all. Has decent midbass.

I was really happy with your AI free format.

Have a set of these for my shop stereo. Just running of the head power and sound pretty good.

Cerwin Vega has 6.5 components for $43, it would be nice to see a comparison.

would these be good for running off of a midrange head unit? I have a spare tire sub to take some of the low end load off. Or would they sound better with something with less power handling? Just want decent quality not super loud, the OEM speakers in there now are awful.

The British voice always give a description a touch of class!

Great review. Kind of eye opening on the markups surrounding the car audio industry. Exact same style setup with a more popular name attached could easily fetch 200% more.🤔

Hi there, nice video....manufacturing cost are about 12-18bucks all in all....because of the quantity they produce OEM and put various labels on it... I own two of these portable boombox speakers which had been popular on the late 90s...bought them for 39,95 back then, expected next to nothing but they are more than ok and can deliver up to 108dB together... The setup you demo here sound a little boxy... I think the woofers need bigger enclosures...i expected something worse.... Thanx for the vid. Cheers. 😊👍

Nice recoil speakers. You really need to test the $45 8" loudspeakers from Resilient Sounds.

Recently a bunch of recoil products on their website doubled in price. Amazon inventory of subs/speakers/amps is minimal but still at budget pricing. If this "new pricing" makes it's way to Amazon, I anticipate a monumental drop in sales for recoil. 😢

Had to bypass the amp in my 08 Civic and needed a crossover for the fronts. Got free speakers. Sweet deal!

I've got a pretty decent JBL stereo I use with my computer hooked up through my flatscreen and get good sound reproduction. The tweeters really stand out, as for the woofer, I give them only "okay". Sounded a little flat and compressed. But for the price I'd say they are worth their price. But I'd want something a little better for my ride. Though I wouldn't hesitate about installing the tweeters. Good sounding tweets with headroom. The Recoil amps do test out well.

Big-D; videos are cool. Do you ever run across the 'Rockford Fosgate Punch RFA-34 3" Audiophile Speakers? Thanks Bro! ✌🏾❤✊🏾

I ordered some when they were stated to be 2ohm in the description but when tested they are 4ohm. They've since changed description. I needed something to replace Bose factory door speakers (everyone knows the deal with Bose 2ohm) sent back and ordered JBL GX628 2.3ohm, yet to install.

The looks of the woofer remind me of the old OZ Audio. Granted without the fancy paint on the frames. I might grab some of these

I have a pair of the Recoil pro mids for less than $40 Ran 300wx2 for a year and then I upgraded my amp to a 1200w 4ch. Recoil amp. Now running 600w x2 for the past 6months. The only complaint I have is the sound quality most people won’t notice it with some of y’all will. I immediately noticed it when I replaced my alpine type S. Coaxial speakers and 400w alpine amp. For the recoil mids and a bigger amp. I traded sound quality for power and loudness.

Very impressive that you got Mr. Hammond from Jurassic Park to read the speaker specs...spared no expense! 😝 They look like a solid set for a daily driver type set up. Nice review. 👍👍

These seem like a really nice alternative to stock mid and high speakers, especially with the crossovers.

I've been following Recoil on Facebook for a while now, and what really interests me are their subwoofers. Are they really that good? Can I replace a JL 8W7 with a 10” from Recoil?

I like your voice imotion sincerity and real I get AI but this channel has always been about your real reviews that's what we all count on thats why I keep watching you can not be replaced by AI

In my suv I set the tweeter crossover pin to the lowest db setting. I HPF the 6.5 mid woofer on my amp at 120hz...I can play them loud and cleanly getting great mid bass and then allow my subwoofer to handle anything from 65 down. I'm going for sound quality not SPL on my subwoofer...Over all sound is amazing price to performance.

Could the lack of bass be a high pass in the x-over for the 6.5? I put a similarly cheap set of Cerwin Vega 6.5" components in the wife's car, and the included passive said it had a high pass of 60hz on the 6.5, and of course a much higher one for the tweeters.

Wow! That’s really unbelievable!! I think if mounted in a decent enclosure and set up a high pass filter you will have a nice sounding system for monitoring or pc together with a sub. Soft dome, rubber surround and xovers for 50 😱 I guess you tested the bass Music without low cut filter, a little bit unfair for these small woofers 😂👍👍 Nice video 👌

Id like to see you review the ct sounds 3 way components.

I have a few recoil products... 3 amps and a cap. I love them and if I didn't recently get Rockford Fosgate speakers prior to finding out about Recoil, I would definitely have gotten them. But why replace what doesn't need it.

If you really want be blown away the rd65 echo pro 6.5 component are the best I have ever heard under $400 and some insane mid bass output !! All for about $100-$120 .

I have the 6.5 paper mid with the faux bullet and pleasantly surprised how good they sound for the low price , aren’t as good as d4s or ds18 but 1/3 the price for my shop setup off the Bluetooth amp you did video on the small guy with all the lights which I freaking love ! Think it’s fosi but don’t quote me on it

One thing I'd be curious to see is how well various speakers perform when really damn cold. The 6.5in skar subwoofers I have hidden in my car's back hatch really suck when it's -25C outside, but the stodk door speakers are unaffected

Some older tec crossover looking parts inside? Wonder if the speakers would have better output straight wired.

Altec-604b good speaker. Thank you so much.

i have a EDB12TA-E0 | EDGE DB Series 12 inch 1800 watts Active Bass Enclosure but it keep and going into prt how can i resolive this

Any chance of doing a video on the Recoil RPM365 components?

Really good video, the rem65 echo cost £71 on amazon in the uk so will definitely give them a try.

This got me thinking "id love to see a top shelf component x-over next to this one uncovered" . I almost feel like we might see nearly identical parts/quality, Could be wrong too : D

You’d definitely see a massive difference, take a morel hybrid crossover apart

You can hear the missing frequencies from the component set. Overall, I’m pretty impressed with the speaker and the clarity of the tweeter at that price point. Just missing a three or 4 inch to carry that mid range from that 150 180 to that3500 hurt range.

Please test Infinity Reference 3004a amp by Harman/Kardon, those are rated 100W rms x4 and are very affordable.

I've ran 2 sets of them on there 550.4 and they sound really good for what they are

I have the same speakers. Only thing i noticed is the tweeter attenuation selector doesn’t do anything. Same with the tweeters when u buy them by themselves.

i've been favoring the mb quart fsb216's. you can get some for sub $50 most of the time, and they're decent enough quality, with a 70w rms/speaker rating that seems to hold up under running. the coaxial variants are rated to 60w rms/speaker. downsides; its an alu dome tweeter, so its a touch brighter, and needs to be accounted for, but thats easy enough to mitigate. the crossover pack is on the cheaper side, a sealed unit with lead wires coming out of it. its bigger siblings (rs1-216) have the screw terminal style. and tend to average around $100ish, with a 55w rns/speaker, a titanium dome tweeter. they're not the absolute best in the world, but they're decent enough quality, they sound pretty good, and they matched close enough to the rating of the front/rear channels of the 5 channel pioneer i was hooking them to, so it was gravy.

Recoil is part of Cicada Audio which makes high end Harley Davidson speakers and amps.

Recoil makes good gear and affordable no issues ❤

Looks identical to the “ultimate” brand components I had back in the late 1990’s. They were sold at parts express.

Their speakers aren’t bad and the amps are def amazing for the price just need to step it up on subs they are horrid lol . Love my Sunday afternoons watching a new old school video and my boy Parker the bass head next ! Lets gooo

Can i crossover not be directly to the radio?

Gonna grab a pair of their 6x8s for the F150 and try them out.

What amplifier has put out the most Watts at 1ohm that you have bench tested

The coils not having a ferrite bar inside, that's pretty good😮 if you could use Dave Navone voice for a voiceover that would be awesome😂

Got the ECHO plus version, they're 80 watts per speaker, and are only going for 65 bucks. They've been great so far.

I feel like the xmax linearity is too low. Bass could be a lot cleaner but maybe my years of collecting spilled me. But I expect the mids to break up from it when bass notes play. I'm thinking the Pyle gear 6.5 component would give this a run for the money but the mylar tweeters popped on my set in short order. One thing on the crossover on that recoil set, it sounded like it could use the high pass caps replaced with smaller values because those tweeters were a little sharp on 8k, that would help clean up the sound a bit.

This is great bc iv had these in my "amazon wishlist" right next to the CT Sounds 3ways Components 😂 guess im getting 2 pairs for my Wifes 2023 Kia Carnival 😅😂

When can you test 8 inch ri,design subwoofer

I wonder how they will hold up over time? You should do a beat on them test

Have to have a true midrange, not just midbass and tweeter. The old rockford punch 6.5, 3 mid and tweeter kicked ass although much more expensive.

I have installed multiple products from recoil. For the money it's great gear

The 2 other upgraded 6.5 comp sets are also great for the price. $100/$150

D, theres a set of ALPINE components on Amazon right now for $39.95.............Alpine SXE-1751S. Also a set of MB Quart for $47.95 (yes I know not old school MB)

My buddy paid over $500 for some Focal components and had to splice the "crossover" in! (Aka the bass blocker) 😂 $50 and you get screw terminals, crossover options, inductor, bass blocking AND a bass blocking capacitor in a case..... I've installed these in a few cars and they sound great!

Have you ever tested this (2x Gravity WZP69 Car Audio 6"x9" 4-Ohm Midrange 800 Watts) Coaxial Speaker 1 Pair

If i was in the market for components i would check these out

If you had some scrap plywood laying around to build some enclosures that would be a cheap way to do it for a set of surround speakers
