K68 is a good choice if you need some good mids

I put 4 of these in a 96 explorer. They sounded great then i made some improvements to the interior by using sound dampening rubberized spray from Oreilys inside the door cavities and rear hatch. Then Dynamatted everything. I fabricated some speaker spacers that aimed the speakers more toward the listeners. They are very clear once you install them properly. My only gripe is that they are very directional as far as sound projection goes.

just decent, thats about it

These are decent speakers nothing more than that, i have 4 of them hooked up to JBL GTO-5355 amp pushing 60W to each one. For the money they are worth it, have decent range, can play quite loud, but highs distort at higher volume (by higher volume i mean as loud you would not listen to it for more then 5 minutes). Also highs are noticable not bright enough but mids have just right kick to it. Lows are very good for money you pay, but have to be filtered below 80Hz if you want to be able to crank up the volume loud. Overall these are a good pair of speakers to drive around with and enjoy music, but sooner or later you would feel they have to be replaced with some better components. I myself am looking right now at either Focal Access comps or Morel Tempo comps to replace KS68s. Though they sound good, just not good enough for me.

should have never got rid of them!

i bought some of these for my 96 thunderbird about 3 years ago now. i bout 2 sets. had it wired to the head unit. these speakers just took it. I'm the kind of person if a product says it can do something I'm going to make sure it can. so with these speakers it was no different. they did amazing on the radios power. could turn it up all the way and no distortion unless it was from the radio. then wired them up to a 4-channel amp that pushed about 60 or so watts to each speaker. it was Loud! traded the car off but kept the speakers. they went into my buddies ranger and didn't ask questions. then they went into his f150 where they were slammed with about 80-100 watts of constant power a piece. they done amazing! never distorted. most speaker like these that iv had would blow after about 40 watts and a hour or so of constant play. not these. got them back and put them in a Mazda MX6, and still done awesome for 2 years. the only complaint is the price. i paid $60 for them back then and now they are so much higher.

Excellent Sounding Speaker, Cheap Price, = Stellar Service

First I would like to say. For those who are questioning a speaker made by Kicker, other then a sub-woofer. I was super surprised at the sound quality by simply replacing factory speakers with a factory head unit. Yes I was under powering them but they still sounded good.
I recently upgraded to a Kenwood KDC-148 receiver putting out 22w RMS.
These KS68 speakers sound amazing and would for sure recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade there speakers with an a/m stereo . GREAT SPEAKERS.

Kicker rules!! best speakers for the money, overall

These ks68's rock! I wouldn't recommend them with a stock head unit, but are awesome for an aftermarket head unit, with or without an amp. I installed these in an 07 f150 supercrew and I have an AVH- P4200DVD from Pioneer. The sound quality is amazing. These speakers have better bass response than Infinity speakers and are comparable in sq. Get them they are great!! Kicker rules.

Perfect.

I've had these speakers for about six months now. These speakers have a very wide range. They project highs, mids, and lows very equally well.

They aren't made for a specific type of music, good for someone who listens to a variety of music. These are good for someone who wants a speaker that performs well in every situation.

Great Speakers

The Kicker's sound amazing. I replaced the factory speakers with the Kickers and the difference is night and day.

very good speakers

i just got these in yesterday, installed this morning and personally i would recommend these to anyone who wants good sound for a good price.
not only were they a breeze hooking up, the make an offer thing got it so i could spend a lot less on these :D
but overall very good highs i love them. but if your wanting bass they arent the way to go, luckily i have 2 12"kicker cvr's so im set

They're alright

They sound like my previous speakers and they were stock. I was hoping for more bass but no luck. I'm gonna have to eventually get 10's.

Great Value

These are a great value and they produce a nice crisp sound. After replacing the factory speakers and adding a new head unit the sound quality changed drastically. Great Buy.

Great speakers!

I installed these speakers in both the front and rear doors of my 2007 Ford Escape and was very pleased with the sound quality. The speakers perform very well and I am satisfied with their output. I have used these speakers for about a half of a year, and have noticed that I would like more bass. It is not that the Kicker speakers do not put out enough bass, it is just that there is not enough bass to make the sound feel "full". If you are someone who likes rap or other bassy music, you will definitely want to invest in a subwoofer to compensate for lower bass output from the speakers. The speakers are just not meant for bass output. However, for someone who listens to rock or other music with less bass; these speakers will do a fantastic job of delivering high quality sound. Overall, I am pleased with these speakers and the service from Sonic Electronix.

2011 Kicker ks68

Great speakers. Crystal clear sound. When it comes to door speakers for a decent price. Kicker all the way!!!

Great Speakers!

Great sound very crisp! I have four in my car and they make the sound a lot louder and clear

Awesome set of Speakers

This set of speakers are great. The music was crisp and very clear. After getting them fixed I was listening to all the songs that I heard many times as it was like listening to them for the first time again! I would totally recommend them.

Surprisingly Good Clarity

Yes I would recommend these speakers. The Highs are very clear and work very well with 22 watts RMS. From my Kenwood 248U. Take a chance you wont regret it. FYI they work even better with 50 Watts RMS.

Great Item

These are great sounding speakers at a great price.

Big Bang for your Buck.

I would most certainly recommend these to others, and already have. I put a pair of these in my 2005 Ford Taurus in the front Doors. 6"x8" mind you I still only have the factory head unit in the car. They have an RMS of 60watts per speaker, my OEM stereo is maybe putting out 13watts, if that. It still was a huge improvement from the stock speakers. I left the stock speakers in the rear deck. This worked out because the only Con about the KS68's is that they lack bass response. So my rear OEM paper 68's make up for it. SOundS GreAT!!

I recommend these for sure!!!

good sound

This product sounds good and looks good installed.

Great Product/Great service

The product a service are top grade. I called and told them what I was looking for and they made some recommendations that saved me money and I got a better product, Very helpful and high recommended.

Satisfaction at it's finest.

Kicker makes some quality audio equipment. I have two of these in my '97 EXT cab Ranger XLT and couldn't be happier with the quality. As an upgrade from the OEM speakers, I have to give a realistic upgrade percentage of 525%. Even without an amplifier for these, they astound me so much with the amount of quality even with a subwoofer in the back.

clear and loud !

i recently bought these and i love them theyre loud and clear it took me awhile to tune my system but when i was done wow! as for sonic electronix great pricing and great shipping all safe when i got the product.

KICKER'S ARE THE BEST

I got a pair for the front door of my 02 Crown Vic. They sound very good. But you need to do little work to put them in.

Great speakers!!!

I install this speakers in my 06 Mustang GT( with a shaker 500)
& let me tell u they sound amazing, I would recommend to anyone wanting to upgrade from stock!! Prize is low and quality is great!!

KICKER ks680

kicker has always been the way go.. these are by far the most crisp audio speakers i have ever heard and equally as loud..
amlified..

Kicker door speakers

Loud as can be when you have the right equipment. I have six of them on a 12 channel 1800 watt amp and there loud as hell!!!! Love em...

Not bad

I was kind of scared to buy these at first because I've had the ds series before and one of the woofers got a short somehow so when I hit a bump it would play and then cut out. No it wasn't my connections either because the tweeter still worked. Anyway these sound really clear and loud. They do have some bass but not like a 6x9. I'm really glad I took a risk and bought them. Great product and a great price Sonic! They arrived on time and everything was obviously new with no banged up boxes.

clean, crisp sound...nice bass

These speakers do it all, what can I say? I highly recommend them

Very nice!

These 6x8s are amazing. I got them for my girls ford escort and matched them with a set of 6.5 in. components and they sound magnificent. No distortion at high volume with bass at reasonable levels and not all out. Great speakers.

Great speakers

I would recommend to anyone

Clear sound

These are nice, BUT. there is only one tweeter. so it doesnt put out as much highs as it could. also, it bottomed out once when hooked up to an amp. however, it produces some really clear sound and I only paid $50 thanks to the make an offer feature so I figure I made a good deal.

GREAT!!!

Great SPeakers!! lOVE THEM!

great speakers for your ford

I love these speakers! I put them in my 2000 Ford Ranger along with a 10" L5 and a Kicker zx700.5 amp. I am over powering the speakers a little but d***! I have the best sound system in my school.

Best Buy!!!

I was kind of scared before i bought these speakers but let me tell you im glad i bought them. I installed them in my 08 mazda 6 and it sounds good, probably would sound better with an amp but overall a good buy, they are very clear and have a good amount of bass and it only took about 10mins each side. I recommend these speakers to anyone!

Great Value!

This product is worth the money, has really great sound, haven't had any problems so far.

Exellent Product

Works very good with excellent sound and nice look What else can I ask????

great sound

I bought these speakers to replace the old factory speakers in my girlfriends car. What a difference they make nice crisp clean sound no more muffled music

Great, but missing bass

I had two of these installed in my 2003 Ford Escape and they sound pretty good. Good quality and has superb mids and highs. The only key part that is missing from these speakers is bass. They have some but as soon as any lower bass comes to play, the bass quality was not near what I was expecting. I have a JVC stereo and no amp running through these speakers. Overall, decent speakers but I was wanting more bass for my system without going out and buying subs for my car. I am now looking at the Alpine Type-R's and see if those would fit my needs.

Better than stock

I have been a kicker fan for many years and I can tell you I'm not so happy with these. I had problems with the tweeters turning off when I crank it up so I called kicker and it's a feature they use along with a lot of other companies to protect the tweeter and they aren't loud enough. I am using a kicker 350.4 and an alpine head unit with the crossover being used on both. Like most people say, it's a step above stock. The bad thing with kicker highs is you either pay for junk or pay up the ying yang for the better kicker highs... There's no in between.

Good buy

Pretty good speaker for the price. Good product from a well known brand. Sounds good as a factory replacement speaker playing off the radio or amplified off of an external amplifier. Crisp sound, and gets decently loud for a car audio speaker, while retaining clarity and sound quality.

Excellent Product!!!!

Very good sound, nice look excellent price

Kicker Ks680

Sonic Electronix is a very good place to order from. I never had any kind of problem and they also ship right away. They have a lot of the top bands at a very low price. I am sure you will enjoy there products as much as I do well good luck and God Bless.

Is really a great value

I have those in my mustang 08 and sounds Excellent those are the best and I recommend them 100% Just great speakers!!and Sonic electronix is the best

Good Speakers

They were easy to install, fit very well & crank out the sounds! I havent blown them yet!

nice

these are very nice speakers. i have them in my 08 fusion just running of the stock head unit and its an awesome difference between these and the stockers. KICKER!!!!

GREAT PRICE GREAT PRODUCT

Name brand product half the price of retail store

Decent for the price

i decided to go with these because of the make offer and i got a hell of a deal on them. i thought they would produce a little more bass since i don't have subs but the bass coming through isn't as clear as i would have liked. i also bought a nice head unit when doing these speakers. Im not sure if i am going to buy another set of these for the rear or go with something different.

A good price for the quality

I have owned these for 6 months. I am powering them with a hi-phonics 4 channel amp at 85W RMS. I like my music loud and these speakers have held up great so far. No distortion or breakdown. I would recommend these for those who are on a budget and want good quality.

Good product

Nice product, very loud, and the mids are rich, though the highs are very tinny, and I get very little low end. These definitely need to be supplemented with a sub. They are very accurate in the sound reproduction in the mids and highs though. Im hearing nuances in my MP3s that I never knew were there before.

Garbage

8 months of use and not excessive what so ever and the connection between the coil and the cone has separated the speaker no longer works

Awesome Speakers

I installed these in my 97 Mustang, I thought I was having issues with the head unit I had but I did some research and Installed an amp. It is soo loud that I can have my own concert in my car.

Pros: Crystal clear audio, very loud speakers.
Cons: Haven't experienced any yet.

Highly recommend these speakers, just make sure you install an amp along with an after market head unit.
