Rockford Fosgate Punch P2 6.5" 2-Way High-Output Convertible Speaker - P2V2-65HO
P2V2-65HO
The family of P2 PUNCH speakers were engineered to fit and built to put you in control. With a versatile convertible design, these speakers can be configured as either component or coaxial systems to suit your setup. The internal/external crossovers and redesigned frame geometry ensures seamless integration and installation. A larger motor, precision-tuned tweeter configuration, and ultra-durable materials deliver relentless output and uncompromising reliability.
Auto Fit Architecture: Everything was engineered to fit. A re-designed frame, mounting holes, removable motor cover and speaker diameter were all engineered to ensure seamless integration into today's modern vehicles. Our factory location mounting flanges provide a flexible yet precise alignment for drop-in integration into most factory mounting locations.
Superior Flexibility: With a versatile convertible design, these speakers can be configured as either component or coaxial systems to suit your setup. The Interchangeable Locking Mechanism (I.L.M.) lets you lock and unlock the tweeter from the wired mounting cup with zero hassle. This flexible design allows you to take even more control over your install layout and tweeter location. All engineered to ensure a seamless fit in most modern vehicles and to make installation as smooth and adaptable as possible.
Performance Driven: Powered by our advanced VAST 2.0 technology, the PUNCH series delivers a 25% increase in cone area, resulting in maximum output and deeper, more impactful bass. The inverted dome tweeter ensures a precise high-frequency range, so every note comes through with clarity and accuracy. Rated at 75W RMS and 150W peak, PUNCH speakers deliver the output you demand, loud, clean, and relentless.
Built to Last: Every component. Every material. Chosen for strength. Built for the long haul. From reinforced polymer baskets to Santoprene surrounds and Nomex spiders, every part of the PUNCH speaker is engineered to be a workhorse. No matter how hard you drive them, the class-leading construction delivers relentless performance that lasts.
Overview
The P2 PUNCH speakers are flexible upgrades for OEM systems with optional tweeters or for custom upgrades. The P2 convertibles offer true versatility by using them as a coaxial on vehicles equipped with one speaker for a fast drop-in, or a 2-way component on vehicles equipped with a separate tweeter/midrange – like those found in an A-pillar or dash – for enhanced staging and imaging.

Technologies

COMSOL Multiphysics
COMSOL software analyzes complex physical phenomena (Multiphysics) that uses FEM (Finite Element Method) to analyze structure strength, heat flow, and electromagnetics, while FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) converts the speaker's acoustical output into frequency components to show amplitude across bass, midrange, and treble ranges.

Auto Fit Architecture
Everything was engineered to fit. A re-designed frame, mounting holes, removable motor cover and speaker diameter were all engineered to ensure seamless integration into today's modern vehicles. Our factory location mounting flanges provide a flexible yet precise alignment for drop-in integration into most factory mounting locations.

Point Source Alignment
The low-profile tweeter position improves high-frequency dispersion by aligning both voice coils more precisely. In component setups, a phase plug refines sound wave dispersion, enhancing high-frequency response and directional accuracy.

I.L.M. (Interchangeable Locking Mechanism)
The Interchangeable Locking Mechanism gives installers full control over tweeter placement by allowing the speaker to be configured as a coaxial or component, ensuring optimal output in any vehicle. The bayonet-style locking mechanism allows tweeter and phase plug to be quickly interchanged and is engineered to withstand high-frequency vibrations and mechanical shocks typical of automotive environments.

VAST 2.0
The Vertical Attach Surround Technique delivers a 25% increase in cone area, resulting in maximum output and deeper, more impactful bass.VAST 2.0 updates the surround's mounting location from an upside-down "T" shape to a "V" shape to increase the surround-to-frame gluing surface area in the pull-force direction.

Edge Driven Tweeter
The inverted dome tweeter incorporates an edge-driven voice coil, engineered for high-performance audio systems. The dome enhances clarity and precision in high frequencies, while the coil ensures superior power handling and broader sound dispersion. Together, they deliver an immersive high-frequency response ideal for a wide range of installation applications.

MC3 (Multi Configuration Crossover Chassis)
Allows the crossover to break down into separate units, giving you total freedom to route and wire your setup your way. The crossovers can be positioned independently in specific locations, allowing for flexible installation options. Alternatively, they can be snapped together to form a unified structure and used in one location, providing a seamless and integrated solution.
CTA-2031
Power handling on Rockford Fosgate speakers conform to CTA-2031 industry standards.
Klippel Verified
Klippel is a speaker certification program allowing us to deliver the best possible subwoofers.
ICC Crossover
The Integrated Concealed Crossover hides the crossover inside the basket, creating a cleaner look and easier
UV Inhibitor Materials
Centrex and ASA plastic materials are used for their UV radiation resistance and components are tested
Vibration Resistant
(ISO 60068-2-64) Components are able to withstand shock and vibration conditions common with outdoor vehicles.
