Hertz C 165 F – Shallow Mount 165 mm Woofer for OEM Speaker Upgrades

The Hertz C 165 F is a premium 6.5-inch (165 mm) shallow-mount midbass woofer from the renowned Hertz Cento series, engineered specifically for vehicles with limited installation depth. Its ultra-slim basket design allows easy installation into factory speaker locations where conventional woofers simply won’t fit, making it an ideal solution for OEM audio upgrades.

Delivering 70W RMS, 180W peak power, 93 dB sensitivity, and a frequency response of 65 Hz – 4.5 kHz, the C 165 F produces clean, punchy midbass with excellent detail and low distortion while requiring minimal installation modifications.
