Upgrade Your Factory Audio

If music is an important part of your life, then your car speakers should be too. The DS Series speakers by Kicker are a true phenomenon for the car audio industry. They are able to produce incredibly clear audio with little amounts of power. You can pair these speakers to almost any source unit such as a factory head-unit, aftermarket stereo or an amplifier. These speakers have heavy duty voice coils in order to withstand high temperatures. The dome tweeter design will produce a soft, warm, high-frequency sound that seamlessly blends with the mid-level sounds of the main driver. Look no further, because the Kicker DS46's are the perfect solution for upgrading the audio in your vehicle.

I have been buying after market speakers for years. They are a few speakers I would call good and most would call hype. Kicker makes the best sounding sub for the watts put in. The same applies for most of their full range speakers.

When buying any speaker, sensitivity is one the most importance numbers to consider along with rms watts and frequency range. To me sensitivity is side by side with rms power. Sensitivity you want to get as close to 110db as you can get. for the most part you will get about 89 to 97db sensitivity. If not this brand let these numbers guide you in the best purchase for your application. They are still a cheaply made speaker, but have the OEM sound you just cant get from most after market speakers.

January 23, 2012 replaced my factory speakers

I bought these to replace my factory speakers in my 03 Chevy Silverado. They are much better sounding than stock. I have them hooked to a Kenwood BT848U head unit, and if you turn them up real loud they can distort, but I mean they have to be very loud to cause any problems. Overall I am very happy with them as a stock replacement.

I am pleased with these speakers for the price. They have good sound and clarity. My stereo installer recommended them for my Suburban from the stock ones. When these are replaced I will upgrade to the next level again.

Customer Testimonial

I was very happy with the way Sonic handled my return and will recommend them in the future. When I had a problem with an item they made it very easy to return it and get a new one to replace it. They did what a good business should and represented the customer and took care of me. Thank you.
