    Hey Guys!
    Today I'm doing an unboxing and hands on look at the Focal Access Level 165AS3 3-Way Component Set.
    I talk about the build quality and compare it to the PS165F3 which are the next step up in 3-Way Components by Focal.
    Choose to be Happy & I will see you Monday.

    Flax is the way to go. After some break in with the woofers it really comes alive. The tweets are still bright but a little tuning will tame the tweeters in the flax component.

    Hi mate, any chance you can shows us a quick look around at the Red Mazda 323 Wagon that's been in your last three videos, I notice it still there in the other room. Huge fan of that car, never seen one that done up. looks really cool. cheers Mate

    Great video! I was thinking about the access, but now I'm tempted by the Flax ones. Actually thinking about a custom installation on both a chevy express van and a 2007 chrysler voyager. We will see how far we can stretch the wallet

    Did you got the chance to compare them with the flax series ?
    Some feedback would be nice sound wise ;)

    Infinity Kappa Perfect 500 (5.25""), 600 (6.5"), and 900 (6x9") all have a 3 way crossover that you can flip a switch on add a 3.5" later on which is nice....And super sexy mids with stitched tinsel leas and a pole vent....

    Hey James, could you please make a video explaining the advanced aspects of speakers and car audio? Things like RMS, sensitivity, cone area and box space for subs etc etc...thanks!

    Is there any 3way crossovers out there that the woofer is midbass instead of bass bass or how ever you say it

  • @leonelrodrigues9537
    @leonelrodrigues9537 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thanks for the video, very useful because I'm upgrading from some cheap Alpines to Focal's Access coaxials 130cm(front) and 165cm(back), hope they sound good. Really looking forward to some soundtest.
    How would you compare the Access line to the new Auditor?

    The flex are tempting but im not sure i can justify the cost or if they're shallow enough for my door. Im new to car audio and cant believe how little info is out there.

    Going active is the way to go though with the component sets.

    • @caraudioetc
      @caraudioetc  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +pop032292 true but not everyone can afford multiple amplifiers and a dsp and a big install cost.
      These are ideal for people who’s cars are factory 3 way components and just want to spend a small amount to replace damaged or upgrade from factory speakers.

    James: What you call "membrane" is actually the "surround". The "membrane" is the cone material.

    • @FlorianFloimair
      @FlorianFloimair 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      And only the Golf 5 has a three-way setup. Golf 4, 6 & 7 have two-way only.

  • @wax333
    @wax333 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    i want to try fit the acess series 3 ways into my 2016 impreza but not sure wether i can fit the 3 inch in the dash where the tweeter is.

    • @caraudioetc
      @caraudioetc  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      +wax333 the mids probably would fit on the dash, that’s where I’m putting them in my 2014 Legacy so if they’re similar dash’s then it should be possible.
      Trick is then finding a place for tweets.

    • @wax333
      @wax333 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      was just going to mount the tweeters the angled cup towards me because having the tweeters firing at the window doesnt sound very good on the ears it has a 3 inch speaker at top of the dash similar to you

  • @FC-lf5hl
    @FC-lf5hl 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hello, can you help me? I want to connect 1 set of 3 way speakers to my car. The question is, would a 4-channel amplifier and 1 set of 3-way components and 1 subwoofer be efficient?

    • @VegasElement
      @VegasElement ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, you can bridge two of the four channels on the amp to push the sub (if it's bridgeable), while using channels 1 & 2 to push your components. Use the high-pass filter in your deck while simultaneously running your amp at full range for the front speakers to provide for maximum bass and & clarity while allowing your crossover to do the signal splitting, & to prevent clipping.

    Currently, the Universal series costs more than the Access series

    • @wax333
      @wax333 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      certain universal series cost more because they are vehicle specific
