K2 Power EC 165 KE 6.5 inch (165mm) 2-way coaxial kit
The EC 165 KE kit comprises two 6.5 inch (165mm) woofers with coaxial tweeters. The aramid fibre cone — in Focal's signature yellow finish — combines lightness, rigidity and damping for faithful, dynamic and well-defined sound. The TMD surround keeps distortion low and cone control precise.
The coaxial tweeters are inspired by Focal's TKME. The K2 cone with inverted dome and 'M'-shaped profile delivers optimal dispersion of high frequencies in-car.
K2 Power, fourth generation
Focal's K2 Power range is now in its fourth generation. The iconic yellow cone remains the centrepiece, delivering hi-fi-grade sound on board.
K2 sandwich cone
The aramid fibre cone uses an ultralight foam core sandwiched between a thin layer of aramid fibre and a layer of fibreglass. This construction balances rigidity, lightness and damping for precise, dynamic sound reproduction.
TKME tweeter
The 'M'-profile TKME tweeter extends frequency response to 22kHz with reduced distortion, delivering smooth, precise high-frequency diffusion. A 'push-pull' motor based on IAL2 technology achieves very low resonance frequencies for harmonic balance.
More linearity and precision
A progressive spider built around a progressive section reproduces bass impact accurately, increasing linearity, precision and dynamics across the range.
Increased SPL
The Radial VC cooling system expels hot air from the voice coil through 6 holes towards the bottom of the motor. This controls coil temperature, limits heat compression, improves reliability and increases overall dynamics.

About the Focal EC 165 KE
From our tech experts at CEN
The Focal K2 Power EC 165 KE is a pair of 6.5 inch (165mm) 2-way coaxial speakers from Focal's fourth-generation K2 Power range, rated at 80W RMS. Each unit uses the signature yellow K2 aramid sandwich cone with an 'M'-profile coaxial tweeter, covering 60Hz to 22kHz with 93dB sensitivity at 4 ohms.
Who it suits
These suit drivers upgrading factory speakers who want improved sound quality without the complexity of a separate component setup. The coaxial format keeps installation straightforward. Those who prefer independent tweeter placement for better imaging could consider the Focal PS165FE Flax Evo component speakers instead.
Our tech experts advise
Check your door has at least 74mm of mounting depth before ordering. At 4 ohms, most aftermarket head units will drive the EC 165 KE, though an amplifier will make the most of that 93dB sensitivity. Grilles and speed clips are included in the box. Fitting is priced per vehicle — see our car audio installation page for details.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will these speakers fit my car?
A: Most car speakers are standard sizes, but mounting depth and fitting rings vary by vehicle. Check the size in the Specification tab against your vehicle, or contact CEN with your registration and we will confirm fitment and any adapters or fitting kits you need.
Q: Do I need an amplifier to run these speakers?
A: Not always. Most speakers will run from a standard head unit, but a dedicated amplifier lets them perform at their best, particularly for component sets and higher power handling models. The RMS figure in the Specification tab is the guide to how much clean power they can use.
Q: What is the difference between coaxial and component speakers?
A: Coaxial speakers combine the tweeter and woofer in one unit for a simple like-for-like upgrade. Component sets separate the tweeter and woofer with a crossover for better imaging and detail, and suit installs where sound quality is the priority.
Q: Do these come as a pair?
A: Unless stated otherwise, car speakers are sold in pairs. Check the product title and What's Included tab, which lists exactly what is in the box.
Q: Can CEN fit these speakers for me?
A: Yes. CEN offers professional installation from our Nottingham premises. Contact us to book an installation slot or ask for a fitting quote.
Q: Are grilles included with the EC 165 KE?
A: Yes. The box includes the woofers, grilles, speed clips, screws and the owner's manual.
Q: How deep is the Focal EC 165 KE?
A: The mounting depth is 74mm (2-7/8 inches), with a 1 inch (25mm) voice coil.
Q: Is the EC 165 KE a coaxial or component speaker?
A: It is a 2-way coaxial kit, with the 'M'-profile tweeter mounted on the woofer and an integrated crossover, so it fits as a direct replacement for single factory speakers.
