These speakers complement my sound system damn near perfectly. I had full Kicker KS speakers in my Dodge Ram at one point. And these speakers played pretty well together; decently hitting all notes.
I just recently upgraded my front speakers to the Focal 6x9s, and the mid tone and highs a perfectly crisp now. The sound quality, again perfectly compliments my system, I needed a well-made product to hear over my two Kicker 15" CVRs and Kicker did a good job.

Very, very loud speakers! Guarantee ears will ring slightly after being in the car after 5 minutes of very loud music! Very crisp, clear sounds coming out of these very inexpensive speakers. Can handle fair amount of bass (not quite 45 rms, running 23.5 watts through them and can sometimes be too much for them) Extremely nice for the price. Always go for Kicker!

August 24, 2006 great starter series

These mids are a great starter series if your looking for that little extra boost out of your mids. I reccomend running any up graded mid range speaker off an amp for a cleaner louder sounding system. I had 2 pairs of these running on a kicker 400.4 amp and won my first sound quality award at a stereo competition. So you know you can great sound out of them.

Customer Testimonial

Fast service, and great price. I was especially pleased that the accessories for installing the car stereo were included, at no extra price. Contrast this with another store I checked, where the accessories cost more than the stereo!
