A component set splits the tweeter from the woofer so the highs can sit higher in the dash or pillar, which is why it usually sounds clearer than a coaxial. The table gives the specs each listing states, and the sections below explain the differences.
From our own listings. "Not listed" means the listing does not give that spec. Power is as each listing states it (rec. = the maker's recommended amp power). Prices are the listed prices.

Most sets here are 2-way: a woofer and a tweeter per side with a crossover.
The Focal ES 165 K2S has a woofer only about 2-1/4 inches deep, made for doors without room for a regular woofer, use slim-fit tweeters for tight factory tweeter spots, per their listings. Among the sets that list a woofer depth, the Kicker CS 46CSS654 (1-11/16 inches), Kicker KS 51KSS6504, 51KSS6704 and 51KSS365 (1-13/16 inches) and Focal ISU 165 (1.9 inches) are the shallowest.

Read itPick a coaxial pair like the Pioneer TS-G1620F, Kicker DS 43DSC6504 for a simple drop-in upgrade on a factory radio. Pick a high-sensitivity pair like the Focal ICU 165 or ISU 165 if you are keeping the factory radio and want more volume from it. Pick a component set like the Kicker KS 51KSS6504 when you can mount the tweeters up high and plan to add an amplifier.
Read itA tweeter plays the highs: cymbals, voices and detail. Adding a pair, or replacing worn factory dash or pillar tweeters, is one of the simplest ways to make a system sound clearer. On our listings the domes are silk, aluminum, titanium, cloth or ceramic-coated aluminum, and sizes are 3/4 inch or 1 inch. Most are sold in pairs. Some come with in-line crossovers, which keep bass out of the tweeter, and some do not list one. The mounting depth decides whether a tweeter fits a shallow factory spot.
Read itA component set puts the tweeter in its own spot, usually higher in the dash or pillar, for a clearer front stage. A coaxial mounts the tweeter on the woofer and is simpler to install. See our 6.5-inch coaxial vs component guide too.
