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 DS68's are the perfect solution for upgrading the audio in your vehicle.

I have the 6 1/2" speakers from the same series and get much better sound from them. Of course, it could easily be the different vehicle and different head unit, so take that with a grain of salt. Still good, but would have been better at a slightly lower price.

I expected better, coming from Kicker, but they are okay. Nothing special, but a little bit better than the standard headphones you may currently have. It's worth the price you can get it for on this website, but not the original pricing.

I loved how these speakers sounded when I first heard them installed!! I still love them, but there's only one problem....recently about 2 or 3 months ago i've noticed my driver side speaker in the back of my 2000 ford ranger reg. cab xlt was cutting in and out....so i took it out to take a look at it, messed around with it for a minute, then it worked perfect again...then a month or so later, It starts it again...now It's done for...idk how it happened because i don't even play my music that loud and the rms rating seemed like the speaker shouldn't have blown, oh well I guess.

Six months later still great woofers. Ive been underpowering them with a cheap dual amp and they not only can bump in a sealed box, but sound great too.
