Complete eXcelon Performance
Kenwood eXcelon items are known for their quality construction and great sound. These Kenwood eXcelon KFC-X683C speakers are no different and continue that faithful legacy. Using the diamond array pattern on the carbon-polypropylene woofer diaphragm, the speakers gains more cone strength and improved acoustic response. Butyl rubber was chosen for the surround because of its smooth, linear cone support, as well as its durable composition. PEI Dome tweeters accompany the larger loudspeaker and result in crisp, clear highs that are not ear piercing. Each of these eXcelon speakers are carefully designed and engineered to produce the highest quality of sound so you can enjoy your music as it is meant to be heard.

Rad Speakers

I replaced the factory speakers in my Mazda Cx-7 with four of these. With my Sony receiver pushing them, at times it sounds like I have a 10" sub in there.

Excellent SQ

I purchased these speakers to get louder, cleaner sound that wouldn't be drowned out by my 12w0v2s that I recently purchased. These speakers sound excellent. Virtually no distortion to them and you can hear parts of songs too delicate to hear on stock or cheap aftermarket speakers. Just make sure you can power them, they are 3 ohms. I ran into a bit of a problem since my amp is a 4 ohm. And if your looking for speakers with bass keep looking, these only seem to distort when you try to push them with a lot of bass. But I will continue to shop here for my audio products. Cheapest I can find without skimping on quality.

Great Sound

The following review is for a previous version (KFC-X682C).

Hooked these up in a Ford Ranger Super Cab (4 speakers), replaced factory speakers. since they are 3ohm speakers, sound was good when used with my Kenwood Excelon x792. However, when added a an 4 channel amplifier matched with the speakers, the clarity of sound was outstanding... added sub with its own amp as well and the bass was perfect.

Easy Install

The following review is for a previous version (KFC-X682C).

Very easy installation in a 1995 F150 Reg Cab. Fit the stock speaker grill and makes for a great sounding but unseen installation.

Dominates my stock's

The following review is for a previous version (KFC-X680).

04 f-150 Supercab

Replaced front speakers but not rear, yet.

Sound is distinctly better than the stock, I plan on buying two more for the rear speakers.

Great if you wan't easy installation (non component).

Excellent Ford replacement!

The following review is for a previous version (KFC-X682C).

Highly recommend. These speakers are a night/day difference from the factory speakers in my F150. Mids and highs are very good. Add a sub and these babies really shine!
