Hertz MPK 165P.3 PRO 2-Way Component Speaker System
If you're serious about your car audio, the Hertz MPK 165P.3 PRO is the kind of upgrade that makes every drive feel like a private concert. This 6.5-inch 2-way component system is built for listeners who want real mid-bass punch, crisp highs, and a soundstage that actually fills the cabin — not just louder noise.
What is this Product?
The Hertz Mille Legend MPK 165P.3 PRO is a complete 2-way component speaker kit designed for car audio enthusiasts who demand precision and power. The kit includes the MP 165P.3 mid-bass woofer, the MP 25.3 silk dome tweeter, and the MPCX 2P.3 passive crossover — everything you need to replace your factory speakers with a genuinely high-performance setup.

- ✅ Designed to pair perfectly with a dedicated subwoofer for a full-range system
- ✅ Drop-in 6.5-inch fitment suits most car door speaker locations
Key Features
-
6.5-inch (165mm) mid-bass woofer: The MP 165P.3 is tuned specifically for mid-bass reproduction — it delivers solid, punchy low-mids without the muddiness you get from full-range drivers.
-
29mm silk dome tweeter (MP 25.3): A 25mm voice coil drives this tweeter for smooth, detailed highs that don't fatigue your ears on long drives.
-
MPCX 2P.3 passive crossover: Uses a copper inductor wound with 1mm diameter wire to handle the 3 Ohm woofer's high impulse current demands cleanly.
-
160V bi-metallized polyester film capacitor: The tweeter crossover uses audiophile-grade components for accurate high-frequency filtering.
-
Tweeter level control: Adjust tweeter output by +2.5dB to compensate for different installation positions (dash, A-pillar, door).
-
4kHz crossover point: A well-chosen crossover frequency that keeps the woofer and tweeter operating in their ideal ranges.
Advanced Technologies
3 Ohm Impedance Design: Most car speakers run at 4 Ohm. Hertz chose 3 Ohm for the MPK 165P.3 PRO because it allows the amplifier to deliver higher current to the woofer, resulting in tighter transient response and more dynamic bass. This is particularly noticeable on kick drums and bass guitar lines — you feel the impact, not just hear it.
MPCX 2P.3 Crossover Network: The crossover is not an afterthought here. Hertz built the MPCX 2P.3 with a copper inductor using 1mm wire specifically to handle the current demands of the 3 Ohm woofer. The tweeter section uses a 160V bi-metallized polyester film capacitor — the same type used in high-end home audio — for clean, accurate high-frequency rolloff at 12dB per octave.
Tweeter Level Adjustment: Car interiors are acoustically unpredictable. Mounting a tweeter on the A-pillar sounds different from mounting it in the door. The MP 25.3's built-in level control (0 or +2.5dB) gives you a simple way to balance the system without needing a DSP or equalizer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the Hertz MPK 165P.3 PRO kit include?
A: The kit includes the MP 165P.3 6.5-inch mid-bass woofer, the MP 25.3 29mm tweeter, and the MPCX 2P.3 2-way passive crossover.
Q: What is the RMS power handling of the MPK 165P.3 PRO?
A: The continuous (RMS) power handling is 115W, with a peak rating of 230W.
Q: Why does this speaker use 3 Ohm impedance instead of the standard 4 Ohm?
A: The 3 Ohm design allows the amplifier to deliver higher current to the woofer, which improves transient response and gives the bass more punch and control.
Q: Do I need an external amplifier for the MPK 165P.3 PRO?
A: You can run them off a head unit, but to get the best performance — especially at 115W RMS — a dedicated amplifier is strongly recommended.
Q: Will these speakers fit my car?
A: The MPK 165P.3 PRO uses a standard 6.5-inch (165mm) mounting size, which fits most car door speaker locations. Check your car's speaker size before purchasing.
Q: What is the frequency response of the MPK 165P.3 PRO?
A: It covers 45Hz to 22,500Hz, making it suitable for use with a subwoofer handling the deep bass below 45Hz.
Q: Should I pair these with a subwoofer?
A: Yes. The MPK 165P.3 PRO is designed as a mid-bass and high-frequency system. Adding a subwoofer for frequencies below 45Hz will give you a complete, full-range sound.
Q: What is the crossover frequency?
A: The MPCX 2P.3 crossover splits the signal at 4kHz — the woofer handles everything below, and the tweeter handles everything above.
Q: Can I adjust the tweeter volume?
A: Yes. The MP 25.3 tweeter has a level control that lets you choose between 0dB and +2.5dB output, so you can balance the highs to suit your installation position.
Q: Is the Hertz MPK 165P.3 PRO a genuine product?
A: Yes. Dolphin Accessories sells only 100% genuine Hertz products sourced from authorised distributors.
Q: What is the sensitivity rating?
A: 93dB SPL, which means these speakers are relatively efficient and will play loud without needing excessive amplifier power.
Q: How is the Hertz MPK 165P.3 PRO different from standard coaxial speakers?
A: Component speakers like the MPK 165P.3 PRO separate the woofer and tweeter into individual drivers, allowing you to position each one for the best possible soundstage. Coaxial speakers combine both in one unit, which is more convenient but acoustically inferior.
