Hertz ML 1650.3 LEGEND – 6.5″ High-End Neodymium Mid-Bass Car Speaker (250W Peak)

Hertz ML 1650.3 LEGEND – Flagship Mille Legend Woofer for Extreme Car Audio Performance

The Hertz ML 1650.3 LEGEND is a premium 6.5-inch (165 mm) mid-bass woofer from the legendary Mille Legend series, created for enthusiasts who demand maximum performance, exceptional control and uncompromising sound quality.

Developed through extensive in-car listening sessions, advanced FEA simulations, and precision measurements using the Klippel® analysis system, the ML 1650.3 LEGEND pushes the limits of what is possible from a door-mounted automotive speaker.

With 125W RMS power handling, 250W peak power, a powerful neodymium motor system and 93 dB sensitivity, this woofer delivers deep, controlled mid-bass, high dynamic capability and outstanding musical accuracy.

Flagship Mille Legend Mid-Bass Performance

The ML 1650.3 LEGEND represents the highest level of Hertz woofer engineering, designed for high-performance systems where powerful bass impact and detailed midrange reproduction are essential.

Unlike conventional door speakers, this woofer is engineered to reproduce demanding low-frequency passages with exceptional control while maintaining accurate vocal and instrument reproduction.

Ideal for:

• Premium front-stage audio systems
• DSP-controlled installations
• High-power amplifier setups
• Audiophile car audio builds

Advanced 36 mm CCAW Voice Coil Technology

The ML 1650.3 LEGEND features a large 36 mm double-layer CCAW (Copper Clad Aluminium Wire) voice coil mounted on a polyamide former.

Advantages:

• Increased thermal stability
• Higher power handling capability
• Reduced power compression
• Improved efficiency
• Accurate reproduction during demanding musical passages

The lightweight yet strong CCAW design provides an excellent balance between performance, control and extended frequency response.

Powerful Neodymium Motor System

The advanced neodymium magnet system was optimized using FEA simulations to achieve:

• Maximum magnetic control
• High efficiency
• Reduced distortion
• Excellent transient response

The CNC-machined low-carbon magnetic plates improve magnetic permeability and minimize distortion even at high output levels.

V-Cone® Technology for Maximum Control

The optimized V-Cone® profile is one of Hertz’s most advanced woofer technologies.

Benefits:

• Improved cone rigidity
• Better piston-like movement
• Reduced deformation during high excursion
• Increased sound pressure output
• Improved mid-frequency dispersion

The V-Cone® design allows the cone to move more accurately, producing cleaner bass and more precise midrange reproduction.

Boundary Free Surround for Extended Mid-Bass

The Boundary Free IIR rubber surround increases the effective cone area and improves air movement.

This technology provides:

• Stronger mid-bass impact
• Higher efficiency
• Greater excursion capability
• Wider low-frequency response

The result is powerful, controlled bass performance even without a dedicated subwoofer.

Premium Pressed-Pulp Cone with Cotton Fibers

The lightweight pressed-pulp cone reinforced with cotton fibers provides an ideal combination of:

• High rigidity
• Low moving mass
• Natural sound character
• Excellent damping properties

This construction allows the woofer to deliver fast response, detailed vocals and smooth frequency reproduction.

Anti-Resonant Aluminium Basket Construction

The ML 1650.3 LEGEND uses a sophisticated aluminium alloy basket designed for maximum acoustic transparency.

Features:

• Three-spoke anti-resonant design
• Integrated ventilation openings
• Reduced unwanted vibrations
• Improved voice coil cooling

The CNC-machined diamond-cut finish with the Hertz logo highlights the premium Mille Legend design.

Key Benefits

• Premium Hertz Mille Legend woofer
• 6.5″ (165 mm) high-performance mid-bass driver
• 125W RMS / 250W Peak power handling
• Powerful neodymium magnet system
• Large 36 mm CCAW voice coil
• V-Cone® technology
