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 DS525's are the perfect solution for upgrading the audio in your vehicle.

Good sound but not loud with head unit

They have really awesome sound, but arent as loud as I imagined and my back speakers really just over power them

Good speakers

I purchased these for the rear door of my silverado pick up. I have been pleased with the sound quality so far from these speakers, especially since they are being driven from a clarion head unit only. Much better rear fill than the stock speakers and would recommend them to any who wants a solid inexpensive upgrade over stock. Features and ease of use are rated 3 stars because let's face it they are speakers. Hook up and go.

Z3 Kick Panels

Replaced blown out 2 ohm Harmon Kardon kick panel speakers in a BMW Z3. Perfect fit.

Excellent Quality and Performance

The Kicker speakers are well made, fit was right on, and sound is great. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Great speakers for the price

I have these kickers installed in a 1998 Kenworth road tractor. I have them running off of a JVC head unit. They sound great! I have upgraded over stock and will be adding an amp, so they should have a bit deeper bass. I like the fact that i can hear the full range of music over the drone of the engine and exhaust of my truck. As a bonus, bluetooth calls sound stunning in my truck with these speakers.

rich sounding speakers

Compared to the factory speakers in the sound bar of my Jeep these speakers sound far better than the originals. Great range...

very nice

1988 e30 BMW 325i.
fits all 4 OEM locations perfectly...with BMW grills and covers so strangers cannot tell they are upgraded, and they are an upgrade. Had them for 35 days now, tried them in the front, now the rear shelf.

I have always had a full system in at least one of my cars, and these compare to much more expensive brands.

Factory BMW speakers are good, but these are very easy to power up from a stock radio (just upgraded to Alpine CD/ MP3) and even with the bass turn up all the way, these speakers can handle it and sound like i have an amplifier.

Really, i cannot hear the wind over the sound while doing 60mph with the windows down.

From AC/DC to Zeppelin, to a sweet violin, they perform well.

The BMW wires plug right in. same size, and everything
for the price, these are great.

i dont know why the surround is shaped like it is, but i prefer smoother (no real reflection to quality of this speaker)
they (the surrounds) do feel and look more durable then others, but only time will tell...and really, how long does any surround last ?

the mere fact i can fit these while using BMW speaker covers are just perfect for me...i don't want to add any more attraction to my car for breakins and i enjoy the benefits

i like the fact they don't need an amplifier to make them sound good, and they have good subtle bass and still bright highs, (metallica, zeppelin no-quarter, etc) the frequencies and db ratings brought me to try them...
experience will bring me to buy another set to replace the other 2 speakers,,

bottom line.
for the size, and price of these, i am more than content..i am pleasently surprised.
its proof, good things come in small packages..i bet the larger series are even better and would fit them but im not cutting any new holes (yet)

Great sound

These speakers sound great and for a great price. I would recommend these speakers for anyone looking to upgrade their existing OEM speakers. WAY better than stock. Sonic is a great company to order from. Great service.
