Components
Concert-like quality and audio realism are obvious features music lovers desire from their car speakers, but unfortunately, factory sound doesn’t offer those smooth, clear middle- and high-frequency ranges. KICKER® has the solution to fix the problem with its KS-Series Component Systems, offering a substantial upgrade from stock drivers for installation in precise, audiophile-favoring locations.
Three sizes of KS Systems offer supreme flexibility by providing multiple installation options, including the opportunity to have a conventional component-system setup or a quick, drop-in coaxial upgrade for the doors. Simply remove the bullet-phase plugs in the woofers’ centers and screw in the tweeters for a speedy solution to coaxial sound and near-live audio reproduction.
The models available are the KS65.2 with a 6-1/2-inch midrange, KS6.2 with a 6-inch mid and KS5.2 with a 5-1/4-inch mid that can be outfitted with an included adapter plate for specific 6 x 8 factory applications.
The high-performance, factory-speaker component replacements utilize massive motor structures that provide high efficiency and ultimate power handling, benefits not often found in factory sound. With exclusive Extended Voice Coil (EVC™) technology and tapered polymer cones held in place by tough Santoprene® surrounds, the KS-Series midrange speakers create frequency ranges for the most precise musical simulation.
The one-inch, calibrated-dome tweeters with phase alignment reveal every high-frequency detail of each song. The woofers and tweeters are brought together by a symmetrical external crossover/protection network that features a three-position, tweeter-attenuation switch adjustable for high-frequency precision. The metallic finish, bolt-thru grilles and spade wire terminals that allow for easy installation add the finishing touches to KICKER’s outstanding KS-Series Systems.
Coaxials
Clear, crisp sound from car speakers doesn’t have to be a dream anymore because KICKER is making it simple to have some of the loudest and most remarkable coaxials ever hidden behind the door of a vehicle.
KS-Series Coaxial Speakers and 3-Way System are KICKER’s primary drop-in replacements, definitely giving mediocre factory sound a serious upgrade.
“You won’t lose the subtleties and will keep dynamic, exciting sound,” KICKER founder and President Steve Irby said.
The exceptional KS-Series of speakers utilizes massive motor structures that provide ultimate power handling and high efficiency for louder, clearer sound. KICKER’s exclusive Extended Voice Coil (EVC™) technology allows for high excursion and superior bass response, while the tapered polymer cones with tough Santoprene® surrounds deliver smooth midrange frequencies for the most accurate musical reproduction.
The calibrated Kaladex-dome tweeters (half- or three-quarter-inch) with stout neodymium magnets and phase alignment reveal every detail, adding to the live-performance realism provided by the KS-Series of mobile speakers.
With 10 flexible woofer sizes, the KS-Series ensures a perfect fit in any car, starting from the capable 3 ½-inch coaxials to the beefy 6x9s boasting 1-inch tweeters. The 6x9-inch KS693 3-Way Speaker System mixes in additional 1-inch midrange drivers with three-quarter-inch tweeters.
Tweeters
KICKER promotes bass as an important addition to any audio system, but sometimes it simply isn’t enough to consider it “great-sounding.” A pair of high-performance KS-Series Tweeters sweetens the high end of the spectrum and completes the ultimate musical experience.
Three sizes of KICKER KS Tweeters utilize neodymium magnets and specially-developed voice coils to handle ample power and deliver outstanding definition. Known for their versatility, KS-Series Tweeters were designed to be mounted in one of three functional ways for optimal sound: flush, surface or angled. With flexible options, the notable tweeters deliver louder, cleaner sound that complements an existing system perfectly.
KS-Series Tweeters provide the high-range clarity that a system requires, adding live-performance realism in any vehicle. A dependable 12dB/octave, high-pass crossover works with the three-quarter-inch KS20 tweeters and half-inch KS13 tweeters, while an 18dB/octave crossover accompanies the louder, one-inch KS25 pair.

KS 680
I bought these speakers as a replacement to my stock speakers and they are absolutely AMAZING!!!!! Easy to install and offer the best sound quality for the money. Buy these speakers if you are in the market for a set of fantastic 6x8's.
KS460 & KS4100
Great sounding speakers, have them running off a Pioneer GM-4300 amp playin 80hz & up with a single Comp 12 backed by a Rockford amp providing the lows. Crystal clear to full volume. More than satisfied.
The best there is!!!!!!!
Personal, Ithink that the Kickers l7 are the way to go. It has the best bass i ever heard. I got 2 10inch L7 in my 08 chevy silverado and they sound cool.
KS Series In My Truck...
I just installed four KS350's and four KS680's in my 1959 Ford F-100 Panel Truck, one of each in each corner of the vehicle front and rear...awesome, clean sound! I can finally hear my music while going down the freeway with the windows down. Can't wait for the custom sub cabinets to get built and install them too!
ks650
putting two sets of these in my jeep pushed by the 350.4 sounds way better than the JL speakers, JL's sound like tin. These are smooth and clear.
KS650.2
Can't say enough good things about the Kicker speakers. I have these amped. They are extremely clear.
kicker ks 602_2 6 1/2 components
these things have really good vocals mids and highs. i have them on the 08zx350.4 and they sound really good.
