Focal 165 AS | Access Series 6.5" 2-Way Component Speaker System
The Focal 165 AS is a high-performance 6.5-inch (165 mm) component kit that serves as a cornerstone of Focal's "Access" line. Designed to bring the "Spirit of Sound" to a broader audience, this kit features Focal's exclusive DFS® (Dual Fiberglass Structure) woofer cones and aluminum inverted dome tweeters. It is highly versatile, with a high sensitivity rating that allows it to be driven directly by a factory head unit while still having the power handling to excel with an aftermarket amplifier.
Product Highlights
-
DFS® Woofer Cones: These robust membranes are composed of two glass fibers braided at 90° and sealed with polyurethane. This design makes them waterproof and highly resistant to extreme climatic conditions, ensuring long-term reliability in car doors.
-
Aluminum Inverted Dome Tweeter: A signature Focal technology that offers low directivity and excellent spatial dispersion. It provides a wide and stable soundstage, allowing you to precisely hear the placement of every instrument.
-
Adjustable Tweeter Level: The external crossovers include a 3-position switch (-3dB, 0dB, +3dB), allowing you to fine-tune the high-frequency output based on your vehicle's acoustics or your personal listening preference.
-
Non-Resonant ABS Basket: The 20% fiberglass-filled ABS chassis is non-magnetic and rigid, providing a stable foundation that prevents mechanical vibration from coloring the sound.
Key Features
-
High Sensitivity: Rated at 91.3 dB, these speakers can produce high volume and dynamic sound even when connected to low-powered factory radios.
-
Superior Midrange Detail: The woofer features a central "ogive" or phase plug that helps regulate midrange distribution for better dispersion throughout the car.
-
Built-in Reliability: Features a butyl rubber surround and an oversized 1-inch voice coil mounted on Kapton® for high power handling and distortion-free reproduction at high volumes.
-
Complete Installation Kit: Comes with wire mesh grilles and various tweeter mounting accessories (surface or flush mount) to ensure a professional-looking integration.

What Others Are Saying
Eddie was great - SDCS installed a new head unit in my 2019 4Runner. He was honest in his opinions regarding the options I was considering. Pricing was also good - he was able to reuse some of my existing installation kit so I saved a bit of $$.Installation was clean and fast and he took the time to walk through the features before I left. Highly recommend!!
I had a great time at this shop! The staff really knows their stuff and took the time to explain the different options without pressure. Installation was quick, clean and professional. Everything looks factory and sounds amazing. The prices were fair and customer service was above and beyond. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for quality car audio and excellent service.
Those guys are really professional! I had a new Alpine floating head unit installed in my 2008 Mercedes, and it feels like a brand-new car. The installation was super clean. At first, the sound wasn’t the same as the factory stereo, but Kevin tuned it to be just as good—if not better—without adding any new amps. They even used my factory GPS antenna so I don’t have extra wires hanging out. On top of that, they matched the online price. Big thanks to Kevin and Eddie—highly recommended!
Kevin was awesome, he took his time and explained everything to me. I went in initially for a dash cam install and then decided to get a sub and amp installed as well. Both turned out great and will be returning if I need more work done.
Came In not knowing what to expect when suddenly my stereo stopped working. Spoke with Kevin in the front and after a VERY fast diagnosing they discovered my wiring was incorrect. After only about 45 minutes total being in the store I was on my way to the beach with a working stereo again! Thank you so much SDCARSTEREO
Highly recommend Kevin and the team at San Diego Car Stereo for any issues with aftermarket stereos. I bought a car with an aftermarket stereo and AC unit that wasn’t working properly—specifically, the heat wasn’t functioning due to an improper setup. I had several people look at it with no luck, and even the dealership basically refused to help because it was an aftermarket install. I came to Kevin and his team over the holidays feeling pretty defeated, but he was confident he could get the heat working before I headed back to a Colorado winter. Sure enough, he got it done.
