Excursion SHX-6.3C – 3-Way 165mm Separate Speaker Set
Excursion SHX-6.3C is a 3-way car separate speaker set from the SHX Street High Power eXcursion series. The set has been prepared for drivers who want a more mature, dynamic, and spacious sound than standard factory systems.
The set includes 2 SHX-6M woofers with a diameter of 165mm, a SX-SAT mid-high-range set, 4 passive crossovers, and MDF panels for permanent installation of the mid-high-range section. This solution is designed for universal car audio installations and as a more powerful replacement for factory OEM speakers.
3-way design for a better soundstage
The 3-way system allows for better frequency distribution between individual speakers. Woofers are responsible for the bass and lower midrange. Midrange drivers improve the clarity of vocals and instruments. Tweeters ensure a detailed and natural treble.
With the SX-SAT system, the midrange and tweeters are positioned close together. This solution facilitates the tuning of the mid-high range section and helps achieve a more coherent sound stage in the car.

SHX Series – Dynamic Sound and Higher Efficiency
Excursion SHX speakers were designed as a more advanced alternative to basic car audio systems. Compared to the lower-end SX series, they offer a more dynamic character, better control, and a more mature sound.
The woofer impedance is 3 Ohms. This allows the system to more effectively utilize the power of the amplifier or head unit. In practice, this translates into more energetic sound and better dynamics during everyday listening.
SHX-6M woofers – stronger bass and clear midrange
The SHX-6M woofers have a diameter of 165 mm. Their diaphragms are made of a 2-layer composite of paper, natural wool, and glass fiber. This construction is lightweight, stiff, and well-damped.
The lighter diaphragm improves the speaker's response speed. This results in more detailed midrange tones and improved bass attack. A special LXPD dust cap works similarly to a phase corrector and improves sound resolution at a wider listening angle.
The woofers use an EFF magnetic system with a central vent. The extended voice coil gap allows for greater linear excursion of the diaphragm, which improves performance, primarily in the low frequency range.
Vented basket and 3 Ohm voice coil
The woofers have steel baskets with large vents. This design allows for free airflow behind the diaphragm and supports voice coil cooling during intensive operation.
The 3 Ohm voice coil is made of copper wire and wound on an aluminum former. The aluminum dissipates heat well, and its low mass reduces the load on moving parts. This allows the speaker to operate efficiently and stably.
SX-SAT set – midrange and treble close together
The SX-SAT section consists of 70 mm midrange drivers and 25 mm tweeters. The integrated mid-range/tweeter system helps achieve a more coherent sound and better soundstage positioning in the car.
The mid-range drivers utilize stiff and lightweight cones made from two layers of pressed, thin paper with an ADC coating. This allows them to reproduce vocals, instruments, and the upper midrange well.
The tweeters have natural silk domes. Their sound is clean, detailed, and pleasant to listen to. A neodymium magnetic system and ferrofluid cooling support the stable operation of the tweeters.
MDF panels for permanent installation
The set includes MDF mounting panels designed for permanent installation of the SX-SAT set. They can be used, for example, for installation in the A-pillars of a car.
This solution offers greater positioning options for the mid-high frequency section than traditional factory mounting. It allows for better directing the sound towards the listener and improving the stereo image.
6 dB/oct passive crossovers.
The Excursion SHX-6.3C includes passive crossovers for the mid-high frequency and low frequency sections. The set includes two SX-2WX crossovers for the midrange and tweeters, and two SHX-2WX crossovers for the woofers.
The crossovers operate with a slope of 6 dB/oct. They utilize MKP audio capacitors and heavy copper wire voice coils. Their small size and low weight make them easy to install in your vehicle.
The crossovers are designed to accept optional Excursion XLR resistive attenuators, which lower the volume of the midrange or tweeters.

Important Installation Information
Crossovers are essential for the proper operation of the mid-range speakers and tweeters. They protect them from too low a frequency signal. Connecting these speakers without crossovers can result in permanent damage to the voice coils. Such damage is not covered by warranty.
Depending on the mounting location, speaker orientation, and distance from the listener, changing the polarity of the midrange or tweeter drivers can help achieve better alignment around the crossover point.
Optional Excursion XLR resistive attenuators can be used to lower the signal level of the midrange or tweeter drivers by 2 to 10 dB.
Why choose the Excursion SHX-6.3C?
The Excursion SHX-6.3C is a good choice for those who want to build a more extensive car audio system than a classic 2-way set. A separate midrange section improves vocal intelligibility, and the 165mm woofers provide a dynamic bass foundation.
This set is for drivers who expect a better soundstage, greater detail, and a more mature sound in their car, while maintaining the versatility of installation.
