The Zurich athlete turned in a good performance to gain second place in the Ironman 70.3 in Rapperswil. Only Andi Böcherer was able to overcome the three-time winner Schildknecht.
Although Schildknecht performed well in the swimming, the man from Zurich lost around 2 minutes to the subsequent winner. With a fast cycling time on the hilly route, the BMC athlete advanced into second place but was unable to make up any time on the leader, who flew toward the second transition zone as if unleashed. Schildknecht was suffering from cramp over the final 21.1 kilometers, but he managed to hold off any challenges to his second place until reaching the finish. Schildknecht didn't try to make any excuses for failing to win, however, and confirmed what spectators were already thinking during the four-hour competition: "Andi is in the best form of his life. Even with perfect legs it would probably have been hard to beat him!" Stefan Riesen, another BMC athlete, finished the race in a respectable seventh place. After months of Achilles tendon trouble, the Berne athlete is back and can look forward to the rest of the racing season with confidence.
The Ironman Zurich on July 10 is the next major highlight for Schildknecht and Riesen. Schildknecht will be going for his fifth consecutive victory there.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Polk Audio DXi6501 by John Pollard Why install component speakers? A component speaker system gives you the best possible performance from your car audio system. A system consists of separate woofers, tweeters, and crossovers, each designed to cover one specific range of frequencies. As separate components, the woofer can move freely to deliver more powerful performance, while the tweeter can be custom-mounted in a better spot up closer to your ears, revealing a whole new world of detail. Separate crossovers are far superior to the simple filters wired into full-range speakers, so the components work together for smoother, more focused sound. Enjoy your music even more Go ahead, circle the parking lot till your favorite song is over. Polk Audio's DXi Series speakers will make you want to hit "repeat" so you can hear it all over again. Polk uses a high-tech approach and ideal materials to give your tunes an exciting new edge. Precision woofers showcase your music Polk's DXi6501 component speaker system features 6-1/2" polymer composite cones that are lightweight and stiff, so they can create a big sound with minimal distortion. Polk analyzes their drivers in motion to ensure that cone movement is even and precise. Polk also uses laser imaging to craft woofer cones that are perfectly balanced to resist distortion-causing resonances. The 1" silk/polymer tweeted can be surface- or flush-mounted for better imaging. Silk/polymer dome tweeters broadcast sweet sound Rest assured, you'll hear every detail of your most enthralling musical moments. Each 1" silk/polymer dome tweeter brings out the high-frequency highlights in your music, and a proprietary magnetic liquid cools the tweeters so you'll get clear sound and excellent long-term performance. You can set your own stage — surface- or flush-mount the tweeters with the included swivel-mount cups, and aim the tweeters towards your ears so you can really enjoy the show. External crossovers for stand-out detail Polk includes high-quality crossover networks that create a smooth transition between woofer and tweeter, so you'll hear accurate, balanced performance from this system. From an intensely quiet acoustic pluck to the most exhilarating electric solo, it'll be a very entertaining ride.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Woofers Tweeters Crossovers Woofers High Efficiency Design: The Polk Audio DXi Series speakers feature a high efficiency design; meaning better sound and more volume using less power. Dynamic Balance Driver Technology: Dynamic Balance is a proprietary Polk Audio technology using laser imaging to determine what combination of speaker materials creates the least resonance. Eliminating resonance in speakers results in a wide, smooth response and low distortion. Klippel Optimized Components: For a driver to reproduce complex sounds accurately, the cone must move exactly the same distance and manner in both directions. The Klippel distortion analyzer, a device that uses a laser and sophisticated software to do large-scale analysis of drivers in motion, lets Polk optimize the speaker's motor structure, voice coil alignment, and suspension to yield the best possible performance. Composite Cones: Each woofer features a Dynamic Balance, Bi-Laminate composite, polypropylene cone woofer. These composite cones feature tremendous stiffness-to mass ratio, resulting in faster transients and finer detail. Rubber Surrounds: For a smoother response and improved durability, the speaker uses rubber surrounds. Mounting: Out of the box the DXi 6501 woofers are a direct replacement for many standard 6-3/4" applications. Mounting brackets are included with holes matching standard 6-1/2" (3-hole), Ford 6-1/2" (asymmetrical 4-hole), and various 6-3/4" applications. Without using the mounting brackets the speaker also fits into many standard 6-1/2" openings, but the four hole pattern is not a direct replacement (new screw holes would need to be drilled; in this instance mounting depth would be 1.947" and mounting height 0.427"; this application does not sort in the Crutchfield Vehicle Selector because using the mounting bracket requires no modification, and is therefore the preferred 6-1/2" mounting method). Tweeters Silk Dome Tweeters: The 1" liquid-cooled, silk/polymer composite dome tweeters provide clear, detailed highs. Neodymium Magnets: Each tweeter employs a light-weight neodymium magnet for better efficiency. Mounting: The supplied mounting cups allow you to surface or flush mount the tweeters. The tweeters swivel in the flush-mount housings, allowing you to adjust them for optimum imaging. Tweeter Mounting Dimensions: Surface Mount Flush Mount Mounting Height 1.030" 0.205" Depth 0.21" (screw depth) 1.082" Frame Diameter 2.051" 2.552" Cutout Diameter N/A 2.018" Crossovers Design: The outboard 2-way Butterworth crossovers have a 12 dB/octave slope (high-pass and low-pass). Tweeter Level Switch: You can adjust the output of the tweeter to match a level appropriate to your vehicle or your system. On the end of crossover (opposite the terminals) the switch can be set to -3 dB, 0 dB, or +3 dB. Protection Circuit: Each crossover has a built-in electronic circuit that protects the tweeter from accidental overdriving. Connections: The crossover inputs and outputs are screw terminals. The terminals will accommodate the included wire or spade connectors up to 0.3" wide. Mounting: There are two mounting holes in the base of each crossover; the cover must be removed to install the mounting screws.

These are pretty nice speakers, been running them for about a week. The tweeters are running off my alpine HU and the woofers are connected to a two channel amp pushing 75W. I ran the tweeters through the supplied crossover and the woofers are using the crossover on the amp. Took some time to dial in the right sound but for the money they are pretty good. Not competition winning sound but decent sound on a budget. Pros: Affordable and nice sound. Cons: Not very good at high power. Don't go over the recommended RMS or they won't handle it. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Upgrade well worth it Written By Mr. Ed, Harrisonburg. VA on Monday, September 15, 2014 Somehow I made it many years with the "Premium" factory system in my 1999 Saturn SW2. Moved up to a Pioneer basic CD receiver a year ago and it was able to reveal the deficiencies. Have a Polk 10" woofer in a custom cabinet and drive it with about 90w from an old Sony amp I picked up from Crutchfield in the early 90s. Prior to the DXi6501 upgrade I had added surface mount tweeters on the upper dash and padded them with 30 ohm series resistors. Still too bright. But it let me hear about higher tweeters - the SW2 location is into my calves. Did not want to get the tweeters too high so I settled for about 10 " up from the woofer, in the plastic in front of the fuzzy door covering with the window controls and latch. Mounted the crossovers in the door in such a way that I can reach the tweeter switch without removing too much. Stereo imaging is not like the showroom, after all I am sitting between them and they are not at ear level. Clarity and openness are vast improvement, I am hearing more details. Let my wife listen to an Il Divo CD and it brought tears to her eyes. These speakers were on sale and for the price I am very happy. Gave them 4 stars because they don't sound like much more expensive units; a great value but not amazing. This is my first experience with components with passive crossovers (I have used electronic crossovers with 3 stereo amps in other vehicles) - it is definitely better than the standard coax with a series cap. Pros: Significant upgrade in clarity. I feel that my basic head's 20 watts are adequate (with a separate powered woofer). Usual superlative assistance from the Crutchfield team. Cons: Tweeter mounting bracket for flush mount did not have enough tang length for my thin plastic door panels and I had to use a little gaffer tape to secure them. Door mounting crossovers means they would be hard to adjust in this vehicle, so I spent some hours with them on the bench before committing to the flat setting. Research, experience and testing meant 10 hours to get the first one in and 2 hours for the second - Saturn latches are very hard to get back in - watch for tricky swivel clips. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Fit in 2001 GMC Sierra Crew cab rear doors perfectl Written By Lance, Bakersfield on Tuesday, September 02, 2014 These fit perfectly in the rear doors of my 2001 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Crew Cab in spite of Crutchfield saying they would not. Actually bought them for the front doors, but decided to put them in the back when I saw they would fit. I did have to drill a hole for the tweeters, but that is expected. Sound great. Very happy with the speakers. Pros: Fit Sound Cons: Crutchfield error in their fitament data. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Really nice sound--great speakers Written By PCW, Buffalo, NY on Tuesday, August 05, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Sweet, clear sound. Very happy. Woofers fit perfectly, Crutchfield-supplied wiring adapter worked well. Tweeter mounting was a problem until I read somewhere to use Dynamat, that real sticky sound-deadener sheet stuff. Actually I used a cheap hardware store version, Quick Roof: very sticky. The tweeter had to mount in the door behind the existing curved grill. There was no flat mounting surface, so I cut an x-shaped slit in a piece of the mat and pushed it over the tweeter, then stuck the whole thing to the inner door panel. I used the same mat stuff to attach the crossover to the door near where I cut into the harness for the wiring. No wire splicing needed. Car has existing amp used for 2-ohm speakers, I kept it even tho these are 4-oms. Need to crank the volume up a bit (around 30 to 50%), but it gets plenty loud for me, no distortion. BTW the local car stereo shop wanted a little under $200 to install these. I also bought some Quick Roof and I slathered it all over the inside of the doors for sound deadening. Pros: Smooth sound, not bad installation. Cons: I can see tweeter installation being a problem for some. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 out of 5 Disappointed - does not fit as described Written By BKL, Providence, RI on Tuesday, July 01, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Despite the claims on Crutchfield site this item does NOT fit a 2013 Wrangler Unlimited. The tweeters in this kit have a huge lip that prevents them from being placed in the factory holes in the dash, at least not without trimming the bottom and then having plastic extend beyond the dash holes around the rest of the circumference. Apparently I'm expected to disassemble the tweeter from the Polk casing and then disassemble the factory tweeter to try and use the factory screen. Probably not difficult but I expect it to fit if the site advertises it as such. My first purchase here is a HUGE disappointment. Any suggestions on kits that work out of the box? These are going back as soon as I have time to waste arranging shipping. Crutchfield response on Wednesday, July 02, 2014 Our database can only check the woofer locations for fit. Tweeters are always a custom installation and only rarely will they drop right into the factory housings. The customer can definitely return the speakers and our advisors will be happy to help find something that'll work out better. 8 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

The ohms matter. Put in a head unit THEN listen to your factory speakers.. Sounds like crap right? Then replace the speakers keeping the same head unit. Sounds a lot better right? I have mine running off of an amp and you can hear me coming down the road. Pros: Sounds amazing in my 2002 taco 4 wheel drive. Paired with my Fosgate P4's and amps I say it kicks butt!!! Cons: Sounds great if you have an aftermarket head unit. Add an extra amp and you will hear sounds that you have never heard before 1 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 3 out of 5 Not a Good replacement for 2011 CTS Written By GlynM, Rehoboth, MA on Sunday, May 11, 2014 Purchased these to replace the front door speakers in my 2011 CTS with Factory Bose system. I was hoping to get better bass response form these vs. the stock speakers. The purpose of this review is not really to knock the speakers, I'm a big fan of Polk. However, these just aren't a good replacement (and I'm guessing no 6.5" speaker would be) for the he 2011 CTS. The issue is that with this particular speaker, you have to use Crutchfield's speaker adapter plate AND the plate that comes with the speaker. the two do fit together but it's a less than ideal foundation. Secondly, and more importantly, these are 4OHM speakers and the factory are 2OHM. I questioned this with a sales rep prior to purchase and was told that there would be no appreciable difference - WRONG! The final reason why these just don't perform well against the stock speaker is that the factory Bose front door speaker is 8" in diameter (not 6.75" as many place state). After mounting the left side front, I did a left to right sound comparison and the stock speaker was louder, deeper, and richer in sound than the polk. A very disappointing result. FYI, I wasn't planning to switch out the tweeters because the stock system is pre-crossed at the amp and the cross-over on the polk is set at a different frequency (3k). Pros: Good Build Quality Cons: Didn't work out for my application. 2 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 huge difference from stock Written By davtheknave, Whitingham, VT on Friday, May 02, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Don't really have any negatives about this, or any of the four different Polk products I've owned in the past. Pros: Great sound, great build quality, great price Cons: none, and none Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 Decent if properly powered Written By Rolls, Wichita, KS on Sunday, March 30, 2014 I've had these installed in my new Focus for about three months. I find that the highs are way to harsh for my listening preferences, and the bass is only moderate. I am not a certified installer, but I definitely know what I'm doing, as I install aviation systems and car systems regularly. I installed these myself, so the sound quality didn't suffer from the install. The speakers and outboard crossovers definitely feel of high quality, better than most in this price range. Unfortunately, that's about where the good stuff ends. I've hooked up multiple brands (and power levels) of amplifiers to these speakers, and they only sounded "good" when I was pushing them with almost 120 watts RMS. So I suppose they can at least handle their recommended rms rating, that's good, but they still didn't sound all that great. Another reviewer claimed that they have an exorbitant (long) break-in period, and I definitely agree. It took about 30 hours of play before the bass tightened up. I wouldn't purchase these again. If your heart is set on these, then do yourself a favor and invest in a high-powered amp. Pros: Feel of high quality speakers. Comes with versatile and good-quality mounting adapter rings.

Cons: You will need to purchase an amp to drive this babies, but it's worth the investment. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Hearing things in my music that I've never heard before Pros: Everything Cons: If anything, not much on the low end. But these speakers coupled with a good sub and everything should be great 1 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Polk Audio DXi6501 Written By Paul Jr, Rhode Island on Thursday, December 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I installed these in the front of my 2013 Honda Civic Si Sedan with factory nav. I will say I did not try them off the factory amplifier. Instead I ran them to a 5 channel Kicker unit. With that being said, I installed these tweeters into the factory location. I did mangle the factory tweeters to remove them to put these in the factory bracket. It worked though. I put the mid range woofer in the front doors and used foam baffles behind them to tighten up the sound. These units sound incredible. Nice crisp clean sound. I have run many brands of speakers over the years. These are right up there in quality and for the price you just cant at them. I am pleased with them. They have a little low end kick to them but certainly not boomy. If you want the low end bass you need a subwoofer setup. Ive got these set on a high pass filter at 50hz on up. The subwoofers take care of 50hz and below. It sounds fantastic on all different types of music. Country to pop and everything in between. I have no complaints. The cross overs are nice and small i mounted mine in the kick panels. Out of sight out of mind but easy access for adjustment purposes. Pros: Great value and sound for the price. 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Due to mishandling on an unrelated repair job, the front door speaker on the driver's side had developed a buzz which couldn't be repaired. The Crutchfield Catalog's timely arrival with the offer of Polk speakers on sale ensured that we would make the purchase. Wise decision as the speakers went in easily. Now, we are treated to clean sound and no distortion at either the treble or bass end of the spectrum. We are quite pleased with the speakers and will recommend them to our friends. Pros: Installation was quick and easy. Cons: None 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I purchased these speakers as the first step in upgrading the sound system in my 2006 Sienna minivan. With my son turning 16 and in need of a car I felt I would be driving the van for the next four or five years so I decided I might as well enjoy it. My long term goal is to build a high fidelity system capable of matching the sound quality of my home stereo. The next step will be to replace the factory head unit and install amplifiers and subs. The speakers were easy to mount using Crutchfield's brackets (with some minor adjustments to the rear brackets to fit the existing mounting points. I will admit I have noticed a significant loss of bass response with the Polk speakers. However, I expected as much given their smaller size. The high-ends are amazingly crisp and the midrange response seems very accurate. Once I finish adding the other components I'll update this post. Pros: construction, sound reproduction Cons: None so far. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Polk Audio DXi6501 Written By J, Tyler, Texas on Monday, November 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Sounds Great. I was able to take apart the original tweeters in a Jeep Wrangle JK and slide the Polk Tweeters inside. I did have to cut part of the original tweeter housing to be able to snap on the original grill. Very happy with the finished product. Any everything looks factory.

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Excellent natural sounding speakers Written By Brent, Richland, Wa on Sunday, November 03, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I upgraded to these speakers as part of a complete upgrade from the factory system in a 2006 Civic. I don't know how much of the improvement is in the speakers and how much is due to the excelon head unit and 75W/ch amp. However the system as a whole sounds sublime. I was skeptical of the specified low frequency limit but I send them the full range signal from the amp and they have no trouble accurately reproducing the tone and volume of a double bass (Edgar Meyer provides my test music). I do not have a sub and I do not feel like I need one for the music I listen to - mostly bluegrass, jazz and classical with the occasional prog rock. Midrange (guitars, male vocals...) sounds full and warm and highs are crystal clear. It sounds like the band is in the car with me, which is to say that the imaging is also excellent. These speakers had the most pronounced break-in period I have ever experienced. For a few hours they were actually shrill and painful to listen to at any decent volume. That passed and they continued to improve for another week (maybe 10 hours listening) and they have stabilized at two weeks. I can't say with certainty that this wasn't due to the amp burning in instead of the speakers since I upgraded all at once. If you want natural sounding music with accurate bass, these are perfect. If you want explosive bass that can be heard for miles you will need a sub, but would probably still want these too. Pros: accurate bass, warm midrange and crisp clear highs. Excellent imaging. Cons: I'm paying more for gas now that I take the long way everywhere I go. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Bass is rohbust 1 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 smooth, wide range Written By DaveL, Seattle, WA on Monday, September 23, 2013 Received as a gift. Very smooth, wide range for this size. Very good treble and midrange, fair, smooth bass; 6 1/2 speaker can't be expected to compete with larger sizes of similar quality. Polk seems to be aiming at quality of sound, for a natural, accurate image rather than for the "boom boom" type of consumer. I was able to fit everything in my Prius, which came with the JBL system. The woofers came with adapters that fit the woofers perfectly. I was able to fit the tweeters in the original spots, with simply a bit of cutting away the thin plastic that held the poor quality JBL tweeters (shame on JBL!). The tweeters are very efficient, so I set the level on the crossover to the lowest setting. I bought the Polk 3 1/2" two way speaker from Crutchfield for the center speaker, very efficient, fine tweeter. Good advice from Crutchfield. I think these speakers would fit most cars, more than Crutchfield recommends. I added some sound deadening to the doors. I may add an 8" subwoofer later, but for now the bass is satisfactory due to the naturalness of the sound. Pros: Very smooth, natural, accurate, musical, detailed sound. Tweeters will reproduce highest musical frequencies. Will play loud, too. Can handle more power than rated, with ease. Cons: None. Bass is as good or better than expected for its size. 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 Good sound, not very versatile Written By Pete, Encinitas, CA on Friday, August 09, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers sound pretty good. I wasn't blown away by them, but they're solid. The grill is huge, and I had to cut it to fit into the car since it was in the door panel and stuck out enough to hit the dash. I had to abandon the screws that came with it as well as they are only designed to be used with the sheet metal nuts that came with them. The tweeters are only meant to fit either recessed or flush on a flat surface so I had to modify them as well to fit my cars curves. Pros: Good sound, good value, looks nice Cons: Not very versatile for installation, speaker grill too large 3 out of 10 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 questions already asked I have a Sony CDX-GT210 do I need an amp to run these or will it sound nice? [ Joeinchains Mar 17, 2014 ] 2 answers For the 6501s... no, you TECHNICALLY don't need an amp, but a standard aftermarket head unit is only continually pushing about 20 watts per channel. They will sound good, but not really any better than the dxi651s, the coaxial set, without a lot of power. You're better off saving your money if you aren't going to amplify these. However, I DO really recommend the 651s. They'll sound just as good if you aren't amplifying them.

[ Jacob Nov 25, 2013 ] 1 answer I don't see a picture listed for the grilles on this speaker. However, I would expect them to be similar to the grilles from other speakers in this line from Polk.
