Audio Code AXC NEO 6 6.5" Neodymium Bullet Midrange Loudspeaker
Description
Description
The Audio Code AXC NEO 6 6.5" Neodymium Bullet Midrange Loudspeaker delivers 225W RMS / 450W peak power at 4 ohms with a 96dB sensitivity rating, an integrated bullet phase plug, and a neodymium magnet motor — the flagship midrange driver in the Audio Code lineup, combining rare-earth magnet efficiency, bullet phase plug dispersion control, and the highest sensitivity rating in the range. Sold individually. Frequency response spans 100Hz to 16kHz, covering the full midrange band from upper bass presence through the lower treble.
The AXC NEO 6 combines two premium design features that set it apart from the rest of the Audio Code midrange lineup. The neodymium magnet motor produces a significantly stronger magnetic field than conventional ferrite magnets at a fraction of the weight — delivering improved transient response, detail retrieval, and output efficiency. The integrated bullet phase plug controls the dispersion pattern of the midrange frequencies, reducing off-axis coloration and improving on-axis clarity and focus across the listening environment. Together, these two features make the NEO 6 the most capable midrange driver in the Audio Code lineup. At 96dB sensitivity (1W/1m) — the highest in the Audio Code midrange range — the NEO 6 delivers exceptional output levels from modest amplifier power, making it ideal for high-output multi-channel active systems. Power handling is 225W RMS / 450W peak. The 6.5" nominal diameter fits standard OEM door locations. Sold individually — order two for a stereo pair.
Use the NEO 6 as the midrange driver in an active 3-way system: cross it over with a high-pass filter at 100–150Hz (to protect it from bass frequencies) and a low-pass filter at 6–8kHz (to hand off to a tweeter). Pair with a dedicated tweeter for the upper frequencies and a subwoofer for the low end. Drive with a dedicated amplifier channel rated 100–225W RMS at 4 ohms. A DSP amplifier with active crossover capability is the ideal signal processing solution. Contact us at Trinity Car Audio for system design guidance.
Why Choose the Audio Code AXC NEO 6?
- Neodymium Magnet Motor: Rare-earth magnet technology produces a stronger magnetic field at less weight than conventional ferrite magnets — improved transient response, detail retrieval, and output efficiency.
- Integrated Bullet Phase Plug: Controls midrange dispersion for improved on-axis clarity and focus — the combination of neodymium motor and bullet phase plug makes the NEO 6 the flagship of the Audio Code midrange lineup.
- 96dB Sensitivity (1W/1m): The highest sensitivity rating in the Audio Code midrange lineup — exceptional output efficiency from modest amplifier power in multi-channel active systems.
- 225W RMS / 450W Peak Power Handling: High-output midrange capability built for demanding active system builds without thermal compression at rated power.
- 100Hz – 16kHz Frequency Response: Full midrange bandwidth with wide upper-frequency extension — covers upper bass presence through lower treble before handing off to a tweeter.
- 4-Ohm Impedance: Compatible with virtually any amplifier channel — no special impedance matching required.
- Flagship Audio Code Midrange: Combines neodymium motor + bullet phase plug + 96dB sensitivity — the most capable midrange driver in the Audio Code lineup.
System Integration Recommendations
The AXC NEO 6 is a dedicated midrange driver — it must be used with an active or passive crossover. In an active 3-way system: set a high-pass crossover at 100–150Hz to protect the driver from bass frequencies, and a low-pass crossover at 6–8kHz to hand off to a tweeter. Drive with a dedicated amplifier channel rated 100–225W RMS at 4 ohms. Pair with a dedicated tweeter for the upper frequencies and a subwoofer for the low end. A DSP amplifier with active crossover capability (such as the JBL DSP4086) is the ideal signal processing solution. Sold individually — order two for a stereo pair.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the AXC NEO 6 sold as a pair or individually?
A: The AXC NEO 6 is sold individually — one speaker per order. Order two for a stereo pair.
Q: How does the NEO 6 compare to the AXC ZRO 6?
A: Both are Audio Code 6.5" bullet midrange loudspeakers at 4 ohms with 100Hz–12kHz (ZRO 6) vs 100Hz–16kHz (NEO 6) response. The NEO 6 adds a neodymium magnet motor for improved efficiency and transient response, handles more power (225W vs 250W RMS — the ZRO 6 has slightly more RMS), and extends higher (16kHz vs 12kHz). The NEO 6 is the flagship; the ZRO 6 is the high-output ferrite option. Contact us at Trinity Car Audio for a recommendation.
Q: Do I need a crossover for the AXC NEO 6?
A: Yes — the NEO 6 is a dedicated midrange driver and must be used with an active or passive crossover. Set a high-pass filter at 100–150Hz and a low-pass filter at 6–8kHz. A DSP amplifier with active crossover capability is the ideal solution.
Q: What amplifier should I use with the AXC NEO 6?
A: A dedicated amplifier channel rated 100–225W RMS at 4 ohms is ideal. In a multi-way active system, a 4-channel or DSP amplifier with active crossover capability is the preferred solution. Contact us at Trinity Car Audio for a complete system design consultation.
