Eclipse SE6900 6×9 4 way Speakers

admin — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 00:19:25 +0000

Eclipse car audio has a brand new series of speakers out now, called Integrated Series. I was looking at the Eclipse SE6900 6x9s and I was really impressed. Looks like Eclipse is going to be doing great things in 2008. The Eclipse SE6900 has a very nice metallic look to it and has really great sound, even at high volumes. The SE6900 are a 4 way 6×9 speaker, midrange is 1-1/2 inch, and has 2 tweeters. First is 1 inch and the super tweeter is 3/4 of a inch. They have a RMS rating of 75 watts and can handle peak loads up to 220 watts. The frequency response is 40Hz-25kHz, a very wide range in my opinion and nice for a pair of 6x9s. The Eclipse SE6900 cone is made out of a hybrid mica PP and seems to be very durable. The SE6900 does have a mounting depth of just over 3 inches so make sure you do have room for this car stereo speaker before you purchase it. MSRP is$199.00.

Eclipse SW8200 Subwoofer Review

admin — Thu, 16 Aug 2007 02:02:33 +0000

I normally don’t buy 4 ohm subwoofers, but the Eclipse SW8200 are very nice and have a great sound and a lot hard punch than his little brother, the Eclipse SW7200. There are not many things that you have to keep in mind with buy 4 ohms subwoofers instead of 2 ohms. Normally the 4 ohms subs can’t handle as much power as the 2 ohms, and they have to be wired differently to get the desired ohm load. Enough on me rambling about 4 vs. 2 ohm load.

One of the best things about this Eclipse subwoofer is that it has a low distortion and a high excursion speaker cone. What does this mean and why is it important? This gives the Eclipse SW8200 the highest speaker travel length in its class, 1.4 inches. It also have thruster air vent cooling system. Besides the looks of this sub, these are the main reasons that I am recommending this subwoofer. Just in case you came here to see how to wire these subs I will give a little Information as if you are wiring 2 of them. If you are looking for a 1 ohm load you will have to wire them parallel-parallel, another option is for the 4 ohm load series-parallel.

There are not many things that you have to keep in mind with buy 4 ohm subwoofers instead of 2 ohm.

They have a very nice chrome looking cone. One of the best things about the Eclipse SW7200 is that it has a low distortion and a high excursion speaker cone.
