About The Product

The Z-Series TS-Z65F coaxial speaker is an excellent way to add smooth, open sound quality to your car. Equipped with an 11.3 oz magnet to handle power up to 110 W RMS, Pioneer designed the Z-Series to harness a wealth of information and reproduce music incredibly close to the original performance. To ensure a premium audio experience, the Z-Series TS-Z65F uses Twaron®, a lightweight, heat-resistant aramid fiber that is exceptionally strong and stable, creating a woofer cone that confidently handles your music’s midrange and lows without undesirable resonance. An oversized aluminum dome tweeter with a VERTEX drive reproduces the most demanding tones while maintaining accuracy in high-level playback. With a frequency range as low as 32 Hz and up to 96,000 Hz, you can enjoy authentic reproduction of your finest recordings, with all the overtones and harmonics making music real. Compact, high-quality built-in crossover networks bring out the best in each driver, ensuring you experience seamless sound performance.

Hear More

The Z-Series is based on highly advanced technology developed by Pioneer, utilizing carefully selected materials and parts, and benefiting from our decades of automotive loudspeaker design theory and testing expertise. Following Pioneer’s OPEN & SMOOTH™ sound concept, the Z-Series automotive loudspeakers feature smooth off-axis frequency response, superior directivity, and an extended frequency range, engineered specifically to produce dynamic, accurate sound quality for your car. The result is a purity of sound that achieves unprecedented audio artistry.


Hi-Res Audio Speaker

The quality of music recordings available to listeners has evolved. Hi-Res Audio recordings contain significantly more data compared to a standard CD recording and require a loudspeaker that is capable of smoothly reproducing frequencies of 40 kHz or higher. The Z speakers are designed to deliver sound that’s clearer, sharper and more complex—reproducing music that is closer to the original performance.


The Perfect Match

All Z-Series speakers feature the same tweeter without any alterations. From the largest component speaker set to the smallest 2-way coaxial speaker, you will get the same tweeter to ensure perfect tonal balance throughout the car, regardless of the size of speakers required for the front and rear.


Open & Smooth

Pioneer’s OPEN & SMOOTH sound concept ensures a seamless and smooth transition between the midrange and tweeter drivers, delivering a uniform off-axis frequency response. This design is optimized for automotive applications where one or more speakers are often aimed away from the listeners’ ears.


Twaron® Aramid Fiber

Twaron® is a synthetic aramid fiber that is very strong, heat-resistant, and rigid when woven into a cloth material. The woofer cones created with Twaron® are rigid and low mass with excellent damping characteristics. Strength and rigidity are important to maintain cone shape during challenging bass notes, while damping is critical for improving responsiveness and signal accuracy.


Tweeter – Balanced Dome

The Z tweeter’s aluminum alloy diaphragm allows the tweeter to remain pistonic and linear at ultrasonic frequencies. The unique diaphragm shape, developed using HSDOM (Harmonized Synthetic Diaphragm Optimum Method) computer analysis, accurately controls differential vibration produced by the diaphragm and improves high frequency dispersion. Pioneer’s Vertex Drive System improves the mechanical coupling of the voice coil and the tweeter diaphragm, reducing distortion and coloration caused by low damping and increasing power handling.


Keep It Simple and Clean

Avoid messy installations and keep your speaker wiring as clean as possible. These speakers use an in-line crossover design and/or an integrated crossover already installed on the speaker basket. This eliminates the need for a bulky external box typically found with passive crossovers, saving you from having to find extra space for it. Additionally, it removes the need for extra wires going in and out of your door to accommodate a woofer in the door with a matching tweeter on your dash.


CarSoundFit App

Pioneer’s Car Sound Fit app is a car sound simulator that lets you experience what your car could sound like using your own smartphone. You’ll be able to hear the difference between stock speakers and Pioneer’s various audio options, and see how the quality of Pioneer speakers can enhance your in-car experience.

Questions and Answers

Q1: What is the RMS power rating of the TS‑Z65F?
A1: It is rated for 110 W RMS nominal power.
Q2: What is the peak power handling?
A2: It supports up to 330 W peak power.
Q3: What size are these speakers and what is their impedance?
A3: They are 6.5″ (≈16.5 cm) coaxial speakers with a nominal impedance of 4 Ω.
Q4: What materials are used in the drivers?
A4: The woofer uses a Twaron® aramid‑fiber + cellulose dual‑layer cone for strength and low distortion; the tweeter uses an aluminum‑alloy dome for extended high‑frequency response.
Q5: Will these speakers work with a factory head unit alone?

A5: Yes — with a sensitivity of about 85 dB and 4 Ω impedance, they can work with many factory head units. However, because of their advanced materials and high‑resolution capability, using a good external amplifier will help you fully exploit their performance.
