Morel Maximo 6 MKII 6.5 Inch 2 Way Component Speakers

Vocals that sound muffled and cymbals that barely register usually mean the door speakers are not up to the job. The Morel Maximo 6 MKII splits the work between a 165 mm woofer and a separate tweeter, with the tweeter mounted on its own. It is rated at 90 W RMS and 4 ohms, and it runs from a head unit or an amplifier.

• The tweeter can flush mount in a 50 mm cutout or surface mount.
• Grilles are not included.

Questions and answers

Is the crossover a separate box?

No. The tweeter crossover is an inline unit set at 4 kHz, so there is no bulky crossover box to hide.

Is an amplifier needed?

Not always. A Morel stockist describes it as efficient enough to run off a factory system and strong enough to handle an amplified one. Morel rates it at 90 W RMS.

How deep is the woofer?

63 mm, per Morel's installation guide. Measure the space behind your door card before you buy.

Are grilles included?

No. Grilles are not included with this set.
