Rockford Fosgate P2V2-68 Punch P2 6"x8" 2-Way Convertible Car Speakers 75W RMS
A pair of 6"x8" 2-way convertible car speakers from Rockford Fosgate, the P2V2-68 delivers 75W RMS and 150W peak per speaker with the I.L.M. (Interchangeable Locking Mechanism) allowing configuration as a coaxial or component system, VAST 2.0 cone technology, 3/4" Tetolon inverted dome edge-driven tweeter, ICC+ integrated concealed crossover (6dB internal, 12dB external), MC3 multi-configuration crossover chassis, 15% glass-fibre reinforced PA66 composite basket, Santoprene half-roll surround, Nomex spider, removable motor cover, 89dB sensitivity, 45Hz-25kHz frequency response, 4Ω impedance, and full installation hardware. Sold in pairs.
Product Overview
The Rockford Fosgate P2V2-68 is the 6"x8" oval model in the Punch P2 convertible speaker range, sharing the same platform, technology, and feature set as the round P2V2 models but with a 6"x8" oval cone for direct drop-in replacement of factory 6"x8" oval speaker locations. The 6"x8" format provides a slightly larger effective cone area than an equivalent 6.5" round speaker, contributing to the P2V2-68's marginally deeper frequency response (45Hz vs 49Hz) and higher sensitivity (89dB at 1W/1M vs 88dB) compared to the round P2V2-65.
The I.L.M. bayonet-style interchangeable locking mechanism allows the tweeter to be locked into the woofer cup for coaxial operation or removed and relocated to a separate flush-mount or surface-mount tweeter cup for 2-way component staging, with a woofer phase plug included for component configurations. VAST 2.0 V-shape surround geometry delivers 25% increased effective cone area. The 3/4" Tetolon inverted dome edge-driven tweeter provides broad high-frequency dispersion at the 9kHz crossover point. The oval cutout dimensions are 7.19" x 5.18" (182.5 x 131.5mm) with a mounting depth of 66.4mm with motor cover and 60.3mm without. Upgradable to a 3-way component system with the addition of the P3V2-25 midrange speaker. CTA-2031 compliant and Klippel verified. Grilles sold separately. 2-year warranty.
Features & Benefits
6"x8" Oval Format - Direct Drop-In for Factory 6x8 Locations: The 6"x8" oval cone and oval cutout dimensions (7.19" x 5.18") provide a purpose-designed direct drop-in replacement for factory 6"x8" speaker locations, suited to front door and rear door factory oval speaker positions common across many Ford, Mazda, Jeep, and other vehicle platforms.
I.L.M. - Coaxial or Component Configuration from a Single Speaker: The bayonet-style I.L.M. allows the tweeter to be locked into the woofer cup for coaxial operation or relocated to a separate flush-mount or surface-mount tweeter cup for 2-way component staging, with a woofer phase plug included for component configurations.
VAST 2.0 - 25% Increase in Effective Cone Area: V-shape surround attachment geometry increases the surround-to-frame bonding surface area for 25% more effective cone area than conventional surround mounting, delivering higher output and deeper bass response.
89dB Sensitivity and 45Hz-25kHz Frequency Response: The 6"x8" oval format contributes to a slightly higher sensitivity of 89dB at 1W/1M and a deeper low-frequency extension to 45Hz compared to the round P2V2-65 (88dB, 49Hz), providing more output per watt and deeper bass from the same power rating.
3/4" Tetolon Inverted Dome Edge-Driven Tweeter: The 19mm Tetolon inverted dome tweeter uses an edge-driven voice coil for superior power handling, broad high-frequency dispersion, and precise imaging across the 9kHz crossover point.
ICC+ Crossover - 6dB Internal and 12dB External Options: Integrated concealed crossover at 9kHz 6dB/octave within the basket, with an included external passive crossover providing 12dB/octave and switchable 0dB or -3dB tweeter attenuation.
MC3 Multi Configuration Crossover Chassis: The MC3 chassis separates into independent units for flexible positioning or snaps together as a unified structure for single-location installation.
Auto Fit Architecture - Drop-In 6"x8" Factory Location Fitment: Redesigned oval frame with factory-location mounting flanges and removable motor cover for integration into most modern vehicle 6"x8" factory speaker locations.
Removable Motor Cover for Tight Applications: Reduces mounting depth from 66.4mm to 60.3mm without the motor cover for shallower factory door and panel locations.
Upgradable to 3-Way Component: Upgradable to a 3-way component system with the separately available Rockford Fosgate P3V2-25 midrange speaker.
Durable Material Stack: 15% glass-fibre reinforced PA66 composite basket, Santoprene half-roll surround, Nomex spider with braided tinsel leads, 20-40% mica-reinforced polypropylene curvilinear cone, Y35 ferrite motor (5mm larger than previous generation), and vented Kapton voice coil former.
CTA-2031 Compliant and Klippel Verified: Power handling conforms to CTA-2031 industry standards. Klippel verified.
2-Year Warranty: Backed by Rockford Fosgate's 2-year manufacturer warranty.

Compatible With
The P2V2-68 is compatible with most modern vehicle factory 6"x8" oval speaker locations with a 7.19" x 5.18" (182.5 x 131.5mm) cutout. The removable motor cover reduces mounting depth to 60.3mm for shallow factory door cavities. Confirm cutout dimensions, mounting depth, and front side clearance against your specific vehicle before purchase. The P2V2-68 is upgradable to a 3-way component system with the separately available Rockford Fosgate P3V2-25 midrange speaker.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the P2V2-68 and the round P2V2-65?
Both are Punch P2 convertible speakers sharing identical technology and feature sets. The P2V2-68 has a 6"x8" oval cone with a 7.19" x 5.18" oval cutout for factory 6"x8" speaker locations, 89dB sensitivity, and 45Hz low-frequency extension. The P2V2-65 has a 6.5" round cone with a 5.42" circular cutout, 88dB sensitivity, and 49Hz extension. Choose based on the factory speaker shape and cutout in your specific vehicle.
Can the P2V2-68 be used as both a coaxial and a component speaker?
Yes. The I.L.M. (Interchangeable Locking Mechanism) allows the tweeter to be locked into the woofer cup for coaxial operation or relocated to a separate flush-mount or surface-mount tweeter cup for 2-way component staging. A woofer phase plug is included for component configurations.
Can the motor cover be removed for shallow installations?
Yes. Removing the motor cover reduces mounting depth from 66.4mm to 60.3mm for installation in shallower factory door and panel locations.
Can the P2V2-68 be upgraded to a 3-way system?
Yes. The P2V2-68 can be upgraded to a 3-way component system by adding the Rockford Fosgate P3V2-25 midrange speaker, sold separately.
Are grilles included with the P2V2-68?
No. Grilles are sold separately.
