Helix Compose i3 Ci3 W130-S3 Midrange 5.25 Inch 13cm FlexMount Speakers 90w RMS
HELIX Ci3 W130-S3
HELIX COMPOSE. The perfect speaker for any composition.
Born out of the increasingly demanding challenges of modern automobile technology and the HELIX-typical pursuit of intelligent solutions, we made the progressive redesign of proven universal speaker systems our mission. The result: our innovative HELIX COMPOSE platform that, according to the motto "developed inside the vehicle, for the vehicle", combines classic universal speakers with the advantages of vehicle-specific systems. Innovative materials and the latest technologies paired with smart, practical engineering - the best of both worlds in harmony: high efficiency, fantastic sound quality and enormous dynamics that fit in any vehicle. HELIX COMPOSE - universal speakers evolved.
Price-performance highlight
Our HELIX COMPOSE i3 series is an absolute price-performance highlight, providing a first-class sound experience thanks to high-quality components and smart engineering. As you already know from our i7 series, our new mechanical technologies with unbeatable practical benefits, are implemented here as well. All speaker impedances are perfectly matched for the combination with our HELIX and MATCH amplifiers, guaranteeing maximum performance at any time.
High efficiency
HELIX COMPOSE equals smart engineering and accordingly implements highly efficient 3 Ohm technology, that perfectly harmonizes with all HELIX and MATCH amplifiers and at the same time allows a clearly perceptible plus in efficiency and maximum sound pressure.
Cenosphere paper cone
With the innovative "Cenosphere" coating, hollow spheres are incorporated into a polyamide layer that is applied to the cone. This process increases the stiffness and also optimizes its internal damping. The result is an exceptionally stable yet lightweight cone that offers outstanding precision in sound reproduction.
High-tech polymer basket
All HELIX COMPOSE i7 and i3 speaker baskets are made of a high-tech polymer composite, which has been additionally reinforced with glass spheres. The result: maximum stability with minimal self-resonance, while also eliminating flux modulation of the magnetic system and maximum resistance to thermal influences. Last but not least, this allows for much more compact basket dimensions and thus simplified installations in cramped installation conditions.
ProConnect – The new industry standard
Our innovative ProConnect terminal is the new industry standard: A professional, automotive connector, allowing the safe use of conventional speaker cables, while also being ideally designed for connection via flat plug with our WireKits, offering maximum flexibility in the design of the sound system upgrade. Furthermore, the connection is interlocked, offers reverse polarity protection and is electrically and mechanically highly stressable.
WireKits – Plug & Play at its best
Our WireKits realize the connection of HELIX COMPOSE components to the original wiring harness, or optionally to the crossover, in the most comfortable way. With manufacturing according to the high standards of the automotive industry, these arrestable adaptor cables meet all requirements for the harsh environmental conditions that installers are facing in vehicles every day.

The performance highlight
The HELIX COMPOSE i3 series is an absolute priceperformance highlight, engineered in Germany. As you would expect, this series matches great sound with high performance and intelligent integration possibilities: Equipped with the same smart features as i7, all mechanical highlights such as FlexMount, FlexConnect, ProConnect, COMPOSE Connect and WireKits are fully integrated.
All speaker impedances are perfectly matched for the combination with our HELIX and MATCH amplifiers, guaranteeing maximum performance and efficiency at any time. Our i3 speakers are available as single speakers as well as component and coaxial speaker systems. Additionally, almost all i7 and i3 components can both be versatilely combined in a HELIX COMPOSE sound system, granting maximum flexibility in the choice of speaker combinations as well as customer budgets.
Despite the larger diameter of 25 mm / 1”, the Ci5 T25FM-CA has an excellent wide dispersion and off-axis response, allowing the creation of an impressive sound image and stage – even in OEM installation spots. With its ceramic-coated aluminum cone, it features a balanced frequency response and excellent decay characteristics. As a result, high frequencies are reproduced even more clearly and realistically.
This universal crossover, optimized for use with the i3 components and suited for any combination of tweeters and midrange / woofers. Its compact dimensions facilitate installation in confined spaces. It’s also equipped with COMPOSE Connect and WireKit technologies.
Thanks to the innovative Cenosphere cone, an extremely efficient magnet system and a tweeter with an exceptionally stable titanium dome, i3 guarantees a first-class sound experience. Next to the full compatibility with the mechanical technologies of the COMPOSE lineup, the i3 speaker baskets share the same technological specs with i7 and i5.
