ETON HEX 165 mm woofer Hexacone membrane

ETON HEX 165 – 16.5 cm (6.5″) woofer-midrange speaker

The next evolutionary stage of the legendary, patented ETON HEXACONE cone technology: the 165 mm (6.5″) high-end system offers top performance for sound lovers. A newly developed sandwich cone consisting of a 3D hex honeycomb structure embedded in two layers of fiberglass fabric, it is elaborately manufactured. The HEX cone is high-strength, extremely lightweight, and excellently damped. Each individual HEX cone is additionally hand-coated with a specially developed coating. This additional layer dampens resonances on the cone surface and ensures the rich, contoured, and exceptionally precise sound of this premium sound system. The ribbed die-cast aluminum phase plug at the center of the HEX 165 is a true sound performance plus: Due to its special construction, it allows free cone movement, prevents interference in the vicinity of the cone, and supports the incredible imaging accuracy of the HEX 165. The finest details are perfectly separated – creating a transparency and, above all, a spatial depth that has rarely been seen and still exists. The powerful neodymium drive with optimized FEA magnetic field symmetry ensures the lowest distortion values ​​and enables extremely dynamic, impulse-fidelity and controlled reproduction – from the smallest signal to heavy bass punches.

ETON HEX 165 – 16.5 cm (6.5″) Mid-Woofer, High-End Built-In Speaker for Cars and RVs, Audiophile Sound System with Hexagonal Cone, 140 Watts, 1 Pair.

The consistent further development of the legendary patented ETON HEXAGON cone technology: The HEX 165 mid-woofer offers top performance for sound lovers. The new HEX sandwich cone is a composite material made of fiberglass fabric and a 3D hexagonal lattice structure made of aramid. The elaborately manufactured HEX cone is high-strength, extremely lightweight, and excellently damped – the perfect material for audiophile speakers, offering powerful bass yet still retaining fine detail.

The sandwich material is bonded in a complex manufacturing process, and each individual cone is additionally coated by hand with a specially developed coating. This additional layer prevents disruptive acoustic resonances and is crucial for the rich, full, contoured, and exceptionally precise sound of this premium sound system – perfect for high-performance applications. Vehicle, even during long-term use.

The ribbed die-cast aluminum phase plug at the center of the HEX 165 contributes to the incredible imaging accuracy and is a true sound performance plus: Due to its open design, it allows the speaker to play freely, and its special shape reduces interference that occurs in the vicinity of the diaphragm. This separates the finest details even more precisely and makes them easier to perceive – a transparency and, above all, spatial depth that has rarely been seen.

A powerful neodymium drive with optimized magnetic field symmetry enables dynamic, impulse-accurate, and controlled reproduction – from the smallest signals to high levels and bass punches. Heat is dissipated via the torsion-resistant, well-ventilated die-cast aluminum basket, the base plate holes, and the phase plug. Details such as the symmetrical wire routing and the resilient suspension reduce wobble effects – indispensable in the premium class.
