Infinity uses the same Metal Matrix Diaphragm tweeter found in many of their popular home speakers, so you'll hear the music the way it was recorded with minimal coloration or distortion. The dome tweeters pivot, allowing you to adjust them for better stereo imaging.
The computer-optimized outboard crossover networks employ audiophile-grade components to separate highs and lows, so that the woofer and tweeter work together perfectly. Pre-wired crossovers eliminate a time-consuming step in your installation, and terminals at the end of the crossover wires screw directly to the speakers, leaving no chance for incorrect wiring.

 very nice speakersDec 05, 2009
By Dominic R. Fischio
i just wrote a review for my other set of infinity 609cs 6-1/2" speakers, and both sets sound amazing. i particularly like how clear both sets sound at all volume levels, and how they both have crisp highs. both sets have a bit more bass than i expected, and i am very satisfied with them. they arrived a couple of days after i ordered them, and i have been enjoying them ever since. thank you amazon!!

Excellent Replacement Door Speakers For 2007 Chevy Silverado ClassicDec 20, 2011
By alexanderaku
I've used Kenwood eXcelon, Alpine SPS and SRS, and Infinity Kappas for years. Of the three, which one I purchase more or less boils down to what fits best, looks best to my eye, and what I trust will sound best to my hearing (speaker specs.). So, when the drivers side door speaker quit in my '07 Silverado Classic, due to a broken voice coil, I had an easy search for a replacement. The OEM speakers had always sounded good - and even the bad one still looked brand new when I removed it from the door. It's a shame GM chose to use speakers (Mexican no-name), with cheaply constructed voice coils, or that factory speaker would have still been serving me well. Otherwise, the OEM speaker looked fairly well constructed.
I have the factory "Premium" CD stereo system in my Silverado Classic with RDS, road noise compensation, added HD radio by iSimple, and other "band" features. This system has always performed very well, so I won't be removing it. I could add an amplifier, but the OEM volume levels are more than sufficient and had good clarity with the OEM speakers - although I've always known some clarity improvement could be had with the addition of some high frequency tweeters and better speakers.
I didn't want to otherwise modify the clean look of my truck interior for tweeters and the 629i speakers have them built in. The fact they can be adjusted to point toward the passenger and driver area was perfect. They also have a small dB switch for amplifier compensation. The other speaker brands didn't offer all this, and the 2-75 watts RMS range was ideal since I wasn't needing or interested in mind sizziling sound volumes. You also can't beat the fact Infinity offers true 4-Ohm impedance with 2-Ohm voice coils (4-Ohm including wiring impedance) that can wring out a bit more performance from any system - and that Infinty includes a good performing crossover network with each speaker here.
In the box are also grilles, grille rings, speaker adapters, instructions - unneeded in my install. But, I did use the metal brackets in the install. There's also mounting screws and a little adhesive backed foam speaker insulation that could come in handy. The speakers also have a three year warranty.
Silverado fitment notes:
The door panels on my Silverado Classic are some of the easiest to remove I've ever seen. Maybe GM knew owners would soon be needing to replace their factory speakers? Removal consists of un-clipping the small "vent" panel from the vehilcle front side, and gently prying the door lock and door lever panel from the rear vehicle orientation. Once the two on the door panel are removed, you remove three screws securing the panel. Then you press in on the door panel and push the door handle "C" clip back enough to remove it - if you have manual windows. At this point, you simply push the door panel straight up and remove it. If you have power options, you can remove the wiring at this point to totally remove the door panel, or you may be able to secure it up - allowing you access to the speaker area without removing it. The OEM speaker is removed by pulling the clip on its upper side down and out. The wire connector clip is then easily disengaged from the speaker.
The OEM door speakers have a nice clip in system and fit solidly, but you can't re-use that system with these speakers as it is designed for the "squared" OEM speaker frames with their smaller cone and flexible cone surround. Not to worry, you just have to drill some screw holes to secure the Kappas - and Infinity supplies the screws in the package. The Silverado door has a 5 1/2" diameter hole with a backspace of slightly over 2 3/4" inches to the internal guard rail, and there is a surprising amount of space inside the door that could be utilized for a small amplifier system if wanted.
The factory door speakers have no inner speaker protection from moisture or dirt, but they do have some small insulating speaker frame seals - although my factory speakers were still perfectly clean on both sides. So, the following is purely optional. I purchased XTC XT652 foam speaker baffles to not only provide protection for my new Infinity Kappa 629 Kappa speakers, but to insulate them from any metal speaker frame to door metal contact that could produce a future rattle of any kind. The Infinity 629i and XTC baffles fit the doors well and the Silverado OEM speaker grille/door panel can remain un-modified.
I wrapped the OEM speaker connector and a wiring adapter in a poly foam with some duct tape - this insulated them from the door metal. I also gave the Infinity crossovers the same treatment and left them hanging just below the speakers - and hidden by the door panels. My install ended up looking factory using a minimum of tools.
Leaving the dB tweeter adjustment in the 0 attenuation position gave my install the best performance with my factory EQ. I also slightly rotated the tweeters toward the head room area and got great headroom sound with the door panels re-installed. For the first time since I've owned this truck, my front to rear balance actually sounded right in the mid position - and left to right correction remained the same for my drivers seat position.
Down to hammering brass tacks and iron hard nails...
What probably contributed most heavily to the broken voice coil, on my driver's door GM factory speaker, was GM uses the driver's door speaker for warning chimes. Those chimes are irritating and distracting to a driver even at the low setting (only two settings and managed by the factory radio), and cannot be turned off by the user. The bad thing is they now seem to be louder using the much better performing Infinity Kappa speakers. Why GM went the stupid driver's door speaker route, instead of simply using the old removeable and easily replaceable chime modules they used years back, just shows more of how they are bent toward making it impossible for owners to service their own vehicles - or to have little if any control over most functions. Additionally, GM needs to wake up and stop their user unfriendly practices of using multiple computers to remove added vehicle controls from the hands of the owner - also unnecessarily complicating systems. As for those stupid chimes, I don't need them and I'm certain there are a majority of others who feel the same - there are also about a dozen idiot lights that flash out the same warnings on the dash.
The Infinity Kappa 629i speakers, fully sealed in the XTC baffles, were an easy install in my Silverado doors. There was a noticeable improvement in clarity and bass, with some sorely needed "brightness" provided by tweeters - and I'm hearing things in the music that I could never hear using the GM OEM door speakers. My OEM radio EQ and tone controls now offer more control over what I'm hearing - and that really improves the use of them. Until now, I had never bothered much with them as they weren't of much use with the factory speakers. Now they really make a difference for the better. The 629i speakers just made the sound system of my Silverado Classic come alive... Only one problem, they make me want to go ahead and replace the OEM rear speakers - and I'm wondering what improvement a small 4-channel amplifier could make. Anyway, the system now sounds great as it is.

 2004 SilveradoMay 15, 2012
By Scott Alan
"Scott"
Purchased these as a replacement for the stock speakers in my Silverado. Fantastic highs and Mids. If you are looking for deep bass production you are going to have to have a subwoofer. It's a 6" speaker and will only be able to produce so much bass. That being said, I am very happy with the results. Much better audio quality than the original speakers, and enough bass response for me to know it's there.

EXCELLENT SPEAKERSJul 19, 2011
By M. MacNeil
EXCELLENT SPEAKERS. I don't know why people are rating these bad or whatever but these are a must buy if you have a sub. The speakers are so clear it's unbelievable.
My current setup is:
Front: Infinity 62.9i's
Back: Stock (for now)
Trunk:
Alpine MRP-F300 (Only powering speakers)
Infinity ZX750.1 (750watts purely for sub)
Kicker S12L7 inside Ported Box
JVC iPod/USB Aux Bluetooth Deck from Futureshop.
I have to keep the bass at 0 because the sub is so powerful. The max volume on the deck is 50, I've never gone above 24..the speakers and the sub are perfect, especially dubstep!
