Stage 2 Series 6.5 inch 2-way coaxial car speakers
The JBL Stage 2 65F GEN2 is an affordable upgrade delivering clear, full-range JBL sound. A lightweight injection-moulded polypropylene woofer and PEI dome tweeter combine to produce deep bass, clean midrange and crisp highs. Tuned by JBL engineers for low distortion and smooth tonal balance across the full frequency range.
Powerful and refined performance. Rated at 60W RMS and 480W peak, with 90 dB sensitivity and 4 ohm impedance, these speakers run well from most factory or aftermarket head units. The 5400 Hz crossover ensures a seamless transition between woofer and tweeter.
Precision-engineered design. The polypropylene cone provides an excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio, improving low-frequency response and reducing distortion. The PEI tweeter extends high-frequency detail with smooth clarity. The 65F fits most standard 6.5 inch factory speaker openings.
Built to last. Each Stage 2 speaker undergoes JBL's HARMAN reliability testing — covering heat, cold, vibration and UV exposure — ensuring consistent performance in real automotive conditions.

About the JBL Stage 2 65F
From our tech experts at CEN
The JBL Stage 2 65F is a pair of 6.5 inch 2-way coaxial car speakers rated at 60W RMS and 480W peak. They feature a polypropylene woofer and PEI dome tweeter, with 90dB sensitivity, 4 ohm impedance, and a frequency response of 55Hz–20kHz. The pair comes with grilles, foam gaskets and fixings.
Who it suits
These suit drivers replacing worn factory speakers who want clear, full-range sound without adding an amplifier. The 90dB sensitivity means they run well from a standard factory or aftermarket head unit. For greater stereo separation, the JBL Stage 2 65C component system is a step up.
Our tech experts advise
The 65F fits most standard 6.5 inch factory openings, but check the 6.8cm installation depth against your door cavity before purchasing. No separate amplifier is needed with a typical head unit. Professional fitting is priced per vehicle; visit 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: Can the JBL Stage2 65F run from a factory head unit?
A: Yes. With 90 dB sensitivity and 4 ohm impedance they can be powered by most factory or aftermarket head units.
Q: What is the installation depth of the Stage2 65F?
A: The installation depth is 6.8 cm and the diameter is 16.62 cm.
Q: What's in the box with the Stage2 65F?
A: Two speakers, eight screws, eight spade clips, a mini owner's manual and two foam gaskets.
