Product Description
The KAP-693.11i is engineered to bring clarity and depth to your system.The ground-breaking features that this speaker has are -
A true high-fidelity, 6" x 9", three-way speaker for your car
What separates ordinary car audio from great car audio? One answer is the Infinity Kappa Series 693.11i three-way speaker system. The biggest of the new line of Kappa car audio systems, these 6-inch x 9-inch speakers offer proprietary Injected Carbon Glass Matrix (iCGM) frames and patented formed-glass-fibre Plus One (U.S. patent no. 7,548,631) woofer cones. The speakers' centrally mounted main tweeter has a soft-dome, edge-driven fabric diaphragm for enhanced power handling and wide high-frequency dispersion. A second super tweeter further expands the high-frequency performance.
25 - 330 watts suggested amplifier power range
Infinity engineers designed the Kappa 693.11i three-way speaker to produce bold, clean sound from a head-unit or amplifier capable of delivering up to 330 watts of power. This makes the Kappa 693.11i an ideal upgrade speaker for systems powered with head-unit or factory amplifier power. This speaker can also handle the power from aftermarket amplifiers that are often part of very high-fidelity aftermarket upgrades. Remember, great power-handling specifications escalate reliability over the lifetime of the speaker, and that means that you'll be enjoying the Kappa Series for many musical years.
Injected Carbon Glass Matrix (iCGM) frames
Kappa automotive speakers benefit from light and strong composite Injected Carbon Glass Matrix (iCGM) frames. Kappa Series speakers resist the environmental extremes of the car. They offer supreme rigidity, even when mounted on uneven surfaces (common in car mounting locations), and remarkable damping of any resonances.
Vented motor assembly
The Infinity Kappa 693.11i coaxial speakers feature a vented motor assembly to let the voice coil breathe. It lessens the probability of power compression with systems playing loud over a long period of time. It means a more efficient use of amplifier power so that all the power provided to the woofer is directed to the voice coil and not wasted as residual heat.
Plus One woofer-cone technology
The Plus One cone on the Kappa series expands the overall speaker-cone area in comparison to others in its class. With an effective increase in cone area, the speaker radiates more air. Also, the carbon-injected cone material produces a lighter and stiffer cone. The result is a better low-frequency response and a greater ability to generate those important, almost tangible musical notes that people often associate with a larger speaker size.
Edge-driven fabric soft-dome tweeter
The 1-inch (25.4-millimeter) soft-dome, edge-driven fabric tweeter design in the Infinity Kappa tweeter enhances power handling while reducing high-frequency distortion. An edge-driven tweeter also has better dispersion characteristics and permits for a lower crossover frequency than comparable tweeters of its size, which improves imaging. The result is improved vocals and clarity in music. There's no sense in having a speaker play loud if it doesn't sound clean.
2-ohm nominal impedance
The 2-ohm nominal impedance of the Infinity Kappa 693.11i coaxial speakers permits compensation for any added resistance in thin factory-installed speaker wiring and delivers increased output when compared to factory speakers or others in its class.
Ultrahigh-frequency response (up to 30 kHz)
A wide frequency response that extends to 30 kHz aids in compensating for speaker placement variations in a car and human hearing deficiencies in the high-frequency spectrum above 15 kHz. The result is that the Infinity Kappa 693.11i three-way speakers deliver more of the full-range frequency response that you associate with great sound.
Ultrahigh sensitivity (96dB@2.83V/1m)
High sensitivity allows a wider range of power to have positive results without overdriving the audio system. With a sensitivity of 96 decibels at 2.83 volts/1 meter, the Infinity Kappa 693.11i coaxial speakers achieve amazing volume and musicality with as little as 5 watts RMS. This means better performance overall with very moderate power, whether the speaker's using a dedicated amplifier or not. The high sensitivity of the Kappa Series makes it perfect for upgrading a factory system's existing speakers with very noticeable fidelity improvements.
Super tweeter for added high-frequency performance
The three-way design of the Kappa 693.11 includes a super tweeter for added reinforcement of high frequencies to keep pace with the larger cone of the 6" x 9" woofer. It's a design that gives the speaker something very close to a complete, full-range frequency response.![]()
