Why Choose JL Audio CF-350mt Midbass Drivers?
Marine-Ready, Crisp Highs
The 1" silk dome tweeter delivers smooth, detailed highs that cut through wind, water, and boat noise. Built with marine-grade, corrosion- and UV-resistant materials, it ensures long-lasting performance in salt air, moisture, and sunlight. An in-line high-pass filter protects the tweeter and maintains clean, distortion-free sound.
Versatile, Powerful, and Compact
Includes flush- and surface-mount fixtures with Classic and Sport trim rings for flexible installation and stylish integration. Capable of handling up to 75W RMS (150W peak), these tweeters deliver clear, powerful highs. With a compact 1.2" mounting depth, they fit easily into most marine audio setups.
Crisp, Efficient High-Frequency Performance
With an optimized frequency response of 4,800–25,000Hz, these tweeters deliver crisp, clear highs for detailed sound reproduction. Their 4Ω impedance and 91dB sensitivity ensure strong output even when paired with standard marine amplifiers.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- • Will the JL Audio CF-350mt fit in my factory 3.5-inch dash speaker location?
In many vehicles, yes. Always verify the cutout diameter and mounting depth before installation.
- • Why do vocals sound too forward after installing the CF-350mt?
The midrange level or DSP equalization may be set too high. Reducing the output level usually creates a more natural balance.
- • Can I use the CF-350mt with my factory amplifier?
Yes, but an aftermarket amplifier or DSP will allow the speaker to perform much closer to its full potential.
- • Why do the speakers distort only at high volume?
The factory amplifier may be clipping before the speakers reach their limits. Check gain and crossover settings.
- • Can I install the CF-350mt in custom A-pillars?
Yes. Custom A-pillar installations are popular for improving stereo imaging and soundstage.
- • Why do navigation prompts sound louder than my music?
The vehicle's factory audio processing may use different output levels for voice prompts. This is normal on many OEM systems.
- • Can I run the CF-350mt in an active 3-way system?
Yes. It is well suited for active DSP-controlled systems with properly configured crossover points.
- • Why does my center image disappear when I move my head slightly?
Time alignment or speaker aiming may need adjustment. Small DSP changes can significantly improve imaging.
- • Should I angle the CF-350mt toward the listening position?
Yes. Proper aiming can improve clarity, imaging, and overall tonal balance in many installations.
- • Why does the CF-350mt reveal hiss that I never noticed before?
The speaker's high resolution can expose background noise from the source unit or amplifier. Improving gain structure usually reduces it.
