Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will these speakers fit my vehicle's factory speaker locations?

A: The P1694 features FlexFit basket design specifically engineered to accommodate odd-shaped factory speaker locations. The included OEM adapter plate ensures compatibility with various vehicle mounting configurations. Verify your factory speaker size is 6"x9" and mounting depth allows at least 3.07 inches clearance. Contact us with your vehicle year, make, and model to confirm fitment.

Q: Do I need an external amplifier for these speakers?

A: No external amplifier is required. The P1694 works excellently with factory head units and amplifiers rated at 75 watts RMS per channel. However, pairing with an aftermarket amplifier capable of delivering 75 watts RMS at 4 ohms per channel will maximize performance potential and dynamic range.

Q: What's the difference between 4-way and 2-way speakers?

A: The P1694 4-way design includes dedicated woofer, midrange, tweeter, and super tweeter providing more accurate frequency reproduction across the audio spectrum compared to 2-way speakers with only woofer and tweeter. This results in fuller sound with better detail, clarity, and sound staging particularly noticeable in complex musical passages.

Q: Do these speakers require an external crossover?

A: No external crossover is required. The P1694 features an Integrated Concealed Crossover (ICC) built directly into the speaker assembly. This eliminates external black boxes simplifying installation while maintaining optimal frequency distribution to each driver without performance compromise.

Q: Are speaker grilles and mounting hardware included?

A: Yes, the complete package includes two speakers with protective grilles, comprehensive mounting hardware, OEM adapter plates, and integrated crossover components. Everything needed for installation is provided except vehicle-specific wiring adapters which may be required depending on your vehicle.

Q: What does CEA-2031 compliance mean?

A: CEA-2031 is an industry standard testing protocol ensuring power handling and performance specifications meet rigorous requirements. Rockford Fosgate's compliance guarantees the P1694's rated 75 watts RMS and 150 watts maximum power handling are tested and verified rather than theoretical claims.
