Description

Product Overview

Give compact factory speaker locations a two-way audio upgrade with the SoundQubed HDS Series 4" coaxial speakers. Each speaker combines a paper woofer cone with an integrated 1" Mylar dome tweeter, and the pair includes grilles.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Integrated tweeter: The 1" Mylar dome tweeter provides high-frequency reproduction without a separate tweeter installation.
  • Paper cone and rubber surround: This woofer construction delivers the natural midrange character described for the HDS series.
  • Compact 4-inch format: The round design is intended for compact 4" speaker locations.
  • 150 Hz recommended high-pass crossover: High-pass filtering helps protect the driver and suits its upper-midrange and treble focus.
  • Pair with grilles: Two speakers and grilles are included for a finished installation.

Why Choose This Product?

The HDS 4" is the most compact option in the HDS coaxial lineup, designed for factory 4" round locations. Its integrated tweeter and 120 Hz–20 kHz frequency response suit upper-midrange and treble reproduction where space is limited.

With an Fs of 105 Hz, this speaker is not designed for extended bass output. Larger HDS 4x6" or 5.25" coaxials deliver more midbass output when those speaker locations are available.

Installation & Compatibility Notes

Check the mounting location against the 3.6" / 92mm baffle cutout and 1.7" / 43.5mm mounting depth. Allow for the listed overall dimensions if installing the included grille.

Use a high-pass crossover set at 150 Hz to protect the driver. A separate passive crossover is not required for the integrated tweeter. The speakers handle 40W RMS at 4 ohms; they can work with head-unit power and perform best with proper amplification. The SoundQubed S4-100 is a suggested pairing, rated at 100W x4.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these speakers sold individually?

No. The package is a pair, with two speakers and two grilles included.

Do I need to install a separate tweeter or passive crossover?

No. Each speaker has an integrated 1" Mylar dome tweeter, and a separate passive crossover is not required.

What high-pass crossover setting should I use?

The recommended setting is 150 Hz. Use a high-pass crossover to protect the driver.

Will they fit my vehicle’s speaker location?

They are designed for factory 4" round locations. Compare your location’s cutout and available depth with the listed measurements before installation.

Are these speakers intended to provide extended bass?

No. Their 105 Hz Fs and 150 Hz recommended high-pass setting suit upper-midrange and treble reproduction, not extended bass output.
