help Dayton Audio B652 Pro FAQ

Is the Dayton Audio B652 Pro a real model, or does this listing mean the B652?

Dayton Audio's established model is the B652; there is also a B652-AIR version, but no widely documented B652 Pro model. Confirm the model number on the rear label before buying because the standard and AIR versions use different tweeters.

Do Dayton Audio B652 speakers need an amplifier?

Yes, the B652 is a passive speaker pair and has no built-in amplifier, Bluetooth, or USB input. Its nominal impedance is 6 ohms, so it should be connected to a compatible stereo receiver or compact speaker amplifier.

What is the difference between the Dayton B652 and B652-AIR?

The standard B652 uses a 5/8-inch polycarbonate tweeter, while the B652-AIR substitutes a mini AMT tweeter. Both pair that tweeter with a 6.5-inch polypropylene woofer and are specified for 40 watts RMS.

Can the Dayton B652 produce enough bass without a subwoofer?

Its specified response begins around 70 Hz, so it can reproduce ordinary music bass but not the deepest movie effects or sub-bass. A powered subwoofer is a sensible addition for home theater, electronic music, or a fuller low end.
