Helix Compose — universal speakers evolved

The Helix Compose platform was developed in response to the demands of modern vehicle integration. It combines classic universal speaker design with the advantages of vehicle-specific systems — delivering high efficiency, strong dynamics and sound quality that fits any installation.

The essentials for an exceptional sound experience

The Compose Basic component systems are the entry point into the Helix Compose range. All components are voiced to work together and are optimised for use with Helix and MATCH amplifiers for maximum performance and output.

The Basic tweeter is engineered with smart mechanical design and secure connection technology, making professional integration straightforward.

High efficiency

Compose Basic uses 3 ohm technology, which works in harmony with Helix and MATCH amplifiers to deliver a clear gain in efficiency and maximum sound pressure. Select models are also available as optional 2 ohm variants for maximum power output with a compatible amplifier.

Powerful bass — always on point

The Compose bass-midrange driver combines high efficiency with quality sound reproduction. Key features include:

  • Lightweight polypropylene diaphragm for responsive, accurate bass
  • Sturdy steel basket with ventilation holes for improved cooling
  • Powerful magnet system for ideal impulse response
  • Soft polyurethane dustcap for optimised upper midrange frequency response
  • Compact build suited to tight installation spaces

High-frequency reproduction with unique dynamics

The Basic tweeter uses a coated silk dome and a highly efficient neodymium magnet, delivering precise, dynamic high-frequency reproduction and clear, detailed sound.

FlexMount20 — universal meets car-specific

FlexMount is a mounting system using specially developed adaptor rings. It allows Compose FlexMount tweeters to be installed in a wide range of vehicles in their original tweeter position. The optional FlexMount20 adaptor ring makes installation acoustically optimised and straightforward.

About the Helix CB22510

From our tech experts at CEN

Helix Compose Basic 5 inch component speakers, with separate tweeters that can be mounted higher where you will actually hear them, rated at 70w RMS.

Who it suits

Drivers building a proper front stage. Helix is a brand people choose when they care about staging and detail rather than volume, and these reward an amplifier and a processor.

Our tech experts advise

Sizes, adapter rings and harnesses vary by vehicle, year and trim, so we confirm what your car takes before ordering rather than guessing. Door treatment and tweeter placement change the result as much as the speaker does. Installation and tuning are 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: What is in the box with the HELIX CB K130.2-S3?

A: You get 2 x CB T20FM-S tweeters, 2 x CB W130-S3 midbass drivers, 2 x CB FX130.2 crossovers, 2 x tweeter mounting accessory sets and 1 x set of mounting material.

Q: How much power does the CB K130.2-S3 handle?

A: The kit is rated at 70W RMS. It uses 3 ohm technology, which is matched to HELIX and MATCH amplifiers to get the most output from the amplifier.

Q: Can I adjust the tweeter level on the CB K130.2-S3?

A: Yes. The separate crossover has a 4-stage tweeter level adjustment so the treble can be matched to the mounting position, plus integrated tweeter protection and a 12 dB slope for the tweeter.
