Infinity Reference 6020cs 6.5-Inch Two-Way Component System (Silver/Black) Review

I replaced two pair of Infinity Reference "shallow mount" 6.5" speakers with two pair of these components. Wow, wow, wow!! Simply powered by an Alpine head unit they transformed my car into a sound studio. Everyone writes about "hearing things in your music that you'd never heard before", but Man! Some live tracks (like Dave Matthews or John Meyer) you can hear people in the audience coughing, or talking lightly. You can hear all the details as their fingers slide down a guitar string. Depths to the bass that I've never noticed. I've tried listening to entire songs and only paying attention to one instrument or background vocalist. They're incredible.
I ordered these at the same time as an Infinity 4x 75 watt amp, and almost didn't install it because it already sounded so good. After switching from head unit power, to a high-power amp, I noticed tighter bass, deeper reach, more punch, and higher volume levels before distortion (in fact, with the amp I can turn it up louder than I could possible stand without any break-up. With the head unit you could start to hear the bass clipping at higher levels.)
It's amazing the clarity and separation of each instrument. Infinity have really made a great product with the 6020. Go buy it and enjoy!

As a mobile installation specialist at a leading electronics retailer for 10 years, I know good car audio products and an awesome price when I see it. These Infinity speakers sound better than great and I couldn't beat the price. Googol shop was a great supplier and shipped quickly. I was able to track my order during the entire process. Quickly got my speakers and immediately installed them in my Jimmy. They make me smile every day on my commute to and from work! 5 stars for Amazon and Googol shop!!!

Infinity's 6-1/2-inch 6032cf is a two-way loudspeaker with Plus One woofer cone and edge-driven textile dome tweeter, and offers an ideal--and simple--upgrade to your factory drivers. Infinity's Unipivot tweeter can be pointed toward listeners even when the speaker is mounted off-axis, for a an optimized stereo image.



Infinity 6032cf Features
Plus One woofer cones This patent pending technology deliver a cone with more surface area than competing models of the same size. The result is increased bass output and higher efficiency.
True Four Ohms All Reference speakers feature two ohm voice coils. Original factory-installed speaker wiring in many cars is 18-22 gauge. This wire, and heating in the voice coil when power is applied, increase the impedance "seen" by the amplifier or head unit. The impedance of Reference Speakers has been adjusted to compensate for this increase and can be safely driven by any head unit.
Edge-driven textile dome tweeters These are not commonly used w-domes, but fully-edge-driven domes like those found in better home audio speakers. The benefit is increased power handling and reduced distortion at high output levels. This technology also allows for better integration with the mid/woofer.
Unipivot Infinity's Unipivot (patent no. 6,002,780) allows the tweeter to be pointed at the listener's location even when the speaker is mounted off axis. This optimizes the stereo image and ensures a more uniform response.
Tweeter level adjustment The 6032cf also features a tweeter level adjustment located on the front of the speaker and can be set at the reference level of 0dB. If the speakers are located low in the doors or if you are looking for a brighter sound, set the tweeter at +3dB
Rubber surrounds This material provides optimum cone-edge suspension and absorbs distortions that may travel up the cone edge, adding stronger low-end.

Infinity 6032cf Specifications

Infinity 609CS 270W (Peak) 6-1/2 x 6-3/4 Two-Way Component System Speakers (Pair) Review

This product had a tweeter stop working for me a short while into the warranty period. I called Infinity corp. and they stated that I had to make a claim through the dealer I bought the system from, in this case it was E & B Electronics. As ridiculous as this sounds I tried it. The guy that answered the phone at E&B told me there is no way they will stand behind the product I bought from them. Then the guy actually tells me "We are not even an authorized dealer, we are just a store that sells a lot of different stuff." UNBELEIVABLE!! Did you know that Amazon apparently sells (through third-party partners like E&B Electronics) grey-market electronics, for which the manufacturer will not honor the stated warranty? I would not have believed this. When Amazon customer assistance did a three way call (which amazon wisely recorded) with me quietly listening to try to resolve this with the dealer, they ranted on at the Amazon representative, and told him to not "even to try to get a word in edgewise, because I can go on like this all day", then he abruptly hung up. The Amazon representative was as shocked at this display of unprofessional treatment towards the company that directs thousands of dollars of sales to them as I was.
In closing, I would highly recommend nobody buy any Infinity product from E&B Electronics as the warranty is not valid, and you will have no recourse if anything goes wrong with your expensive purchase. Stay away from these two companies.

Infinity Reference 5032cf 5.25-Inch, 135-Watt High Performance Two-Way Loudspeaker (Pair) Review

Purchased these speakers. While they worked, they were fine. However, they stopped working after about 6 months. The stereo wasn't too loud, since the speakers replaced 15 year old stock BMW speakers which had a lower rating.
Called HarmonKardon / Infinity for warranty service. Went to the local location and was informed that I had to return the speakers to the dealer I purchased them from. Spoke to Amazon, who informed me it was a manufacturers warranty, and they had to provide service. Classic catch-22. However, in general I would have to side with Amazon, the manufacturer should provide the warranty service in this case.
So I'd give the speakers a 4 while they worked, and a 0 since they won't live up to their 1 year warranty.
