Focal PC165FE Flax Evo Series 6½" 2-way car speakers
The sound of flax
Focal found that a flax woofer cone produces a dynamic, accurate sound that matches their reputation. At half the weight of fibreglass, the flax fibres create a rigid yet lightweight cone that limits unwanted vibrations and improves accuracy.
Tuned mass damper
Focal's patented surround uses tuned mass damper technology — the same principle used in earthquake-resistant skyscrapers — to keep the woofer cone under tight control. The result is smoother, more natural sound.
Power handling
The PC165FE combines flax woofers with Focal's M-profile inverted dome tweeters. The inverted dome design mimics woofer-style dispersion, spreading high frequencies in a wide pattern for a natural soundstage. The aluminium frame provides a rigid, non-resonant platform. At 70W RMS, pairing these with an amplifier will significantly extend their dynamic range. If you're looking for a 6.5-inch option with a separate tweeter, Focal also offer the Focal 165 AS Access Series 2-way component speakers.

Our tech experts advise
Sizes, adapter rings and harnesses vary by vehicle, year and trim, so we confirm what your car takes before ordering. Door treatment matters as much as the speaker, and Focal drivers repay an amplifier. Installation is priced per vehicle, so get in touch with your make, model and year and we will confirm what it needs. See car audio installation.

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: How much power can the Focal PC 165 FE speakers handle?
A: They are rated at 70W RMS continuous and 140W peak, with a 4 ohm impedance. Powering them with an amplifier will make the most of their dynamic range.
Q: What is the mounting depth and cut-out size of the PC 165 FE?
A: The top-mount depth is 2 15/16 inches and the cut-out diameter is 5 5/8 inches, which suits most 6.5-inch door speaker locations.
Q: What comes in the box with the Focal PC 165 FE?
A: Two 2-way speakers, 2 grilles, 2 grille mounting rings, 2 mounting gaskets, 8 speed clips, eight 1-inch self-tapping screws and the owner's manual.
