【BLAM LIVE L165S Component 2-Way Speakers | Slim Design for Easy OEM Replacement, Natural and Full-Bodied Sound】

If you feel that your OEM speaker sound is:

• Vocals seem a bit too far away
• The treble is harsh, and listening for long periods is tiring
• The bass sounds blurry, with no clear cohesion in the music
• You’re not considering a major system overhaul

Then BLAM LIVE L165S is a component 2-way speaker that’s easy to consider.

While remaining slim, it’s designed with a balance that helps you avoid losing the thickness of the sound. Vocals come forward more easily, and you’ll also hear presence in the midrange of guitars and other instruments. The treble doesn’t get overly sharp, making it a direction that lets you enjoy everyday music—J-POP, vocal tracks, rock, and live recordings—naturally.

Rather than simply getting louder, the voices and instruments that used to be buried become easier to hear, and the overall music gains a more cohesive feel. It’s suited for those who want to clearly feel the difference when replacing an OEM speaker.

Slim Design Makes It Easier to Match Installation Conditions

The LIVE L165S is a shallow-type speaker with a mounting depth of 61.7 mm.

In cars that don’t have much space inside the door, mounting depth can become an issue when choosing speakers. With the slim LIVE L165S, depending on the vehicle, you may be able to install it in a shape close to an OEM replacement—making it easier to plan a system upgrade without unnecessarily increasing major fabrication.

The 25 mm silk dome tweeter is known for a treble that’s easy to listen to, with reduced harshness. It’s also well suited for people who want to enjoy music during long drives and those who don’t like strongly stimulating high frequencies.

Since the tweeter supports multiple mounting methods, you can choose an installation approach that matches the vehicle and interior shape. The tweeter’s orientation and position greatly affect the final finish—especially if you want to maintain the look and also secure a good sense of soundstage.

Even the Same Speaker Sounds Different Depending on Installation and Tuning

Speakers don’t necessarily produce the same sound just because you replace them.

Your sound impression changes depending on factors such as how firmly the door side is fixed, the mounting base used to attach the speaker, the surrounding treatments, the tweeter’s direction, and how it connects with the OEM head unit or your existing system.

To take advantage of the LIVE L165S’s midrange thickness and the way the sound ties together, it’s important to plan not only the speaker itself, but also the installation and necessary adjustments to suit your vehicle.

At Logon, rather than starting with an expensive setup, we first discuss:

• How much you want to change from your current OEM system
• Whether you want to emphasize vocals
• Whether you want easier-to-listen-to treble
• Whether you also want more bass quantity
• Whether you plan to add an amplifier and/or DSP in the future

After hearing these points, we organize together the best way to build a setup that fits your vehicle and how you use it.

If it were my car, I’d start by considering the LIVE L165S for vehicles where you want the sound balance to be naturally improved with an OEM-style replacement. If there’s plenty of mounting space and you want to place a bit more emphasis on bass quantity, you could also consider the L165P direction from the same line.

That said, which one actually fits better depends on the vehicle, the conditions inside the door, and your current audio setup. Instead of deciding just based on the product, it’s easier to avoid ending up with “the sound isn’t what I expected” later if you choose while checking an actual vehicle.

For Those Who Want to Improve the Sound Naturally from the OEM Setup

BLAM LIVE L165S is a speaker with a balance of:

• Slim design that makes it easier to accommodate installation conditions
• Easy to combine even when replacing from an OEM system
• Midrange thickness that makes vocals easier to make out
• Easier to present treble naturally with a silk dome tweeter
• Not too complicated to install, so you can enjoy the changes in sound

This makes it a well-balanced speaker.

For people who think, “I want better sound than the OEM, but I don’t want to overdo it,” I believe it’s a perfectly fitting direction.

If you’re unsure about which speakers to choose, please think beyond the product itself—include your vehicle, OEM audio, the music you listen to, and the direction of sound you want. At Logon, we’ll search together for a setup that lets you enjoy music comfortably in that car, while also valuing looks and ease of use.
