Description Features Crutchfield Hands-on Research Accessories
 

You not only want great sound from your car speakers, you want them to last. Kenwood's Performance Series speakers feature innovative designs that produce natural-sounding, lively music while standing up to the test of time.

The KFC-1682ie 3-way 6-1/2" speakers feature mica-injected, fibre-texture woofer cones that reproduce the lower frequencies precisely, with urethane surrounds that shrug off the effects of heat and humdity.

Kenwood's Image Enhancer does a great job of banishing fuzziness in the mids and highs. A specially designed oval ring surrounds each 1-3/16" soft-dome tweeter and 1/2" ceramic tweeter to prevent reflected interference, resulting in smoother vocals, wider "sweet spot" dispersion, and less distortion.

proud owner December-06-09
Reviewer: David from San Antonio, TX  
i have 6 of these installed throughout my '91 suburban, with 4 driven by an alpine f300 and installed in the back doors, the other 2 comin off my pioneer 3100ib head unit in my front doors. these things are awesome, they perform way better than i was expectin'. they hit hard enough that people think i have a sub in my truck (i don't), and everyone else complements how clear the sound is. i play mostly country and rock, and they do just fine. i have played rap with the set up, and it just starts to rattel and distort when i crank it up (i guess i need a sub for this prupose). over all great speakers for the price, would definantly buy again!


 
Not Bad at All June-30-09
Reviewer: Peaty from Sugar Grove, IL  
I got these because they seemed to have good, powerful specs for a cheaper speaker...and so far so good.  I use them as part of a 6 speaker set up in an Ext. Cab Silverado with no additional amp or power.  They are a little weak on the bass end, and the high's can be a bit too high and irritating, but if you set up your EQ on the receiver that can be fixed. So overall, these are great speakers for the money and I'm very happy with them...just may take some work to get the sound how you like it.


 
Great Filler Speaker June-12-09
Reviewer: nvpowerdoc from Henderson, NV (Las Vegas)  
I used these speakers as part of a 5 channel setup in a Polaris RZR-s UTV  (off road vehicle).  The fronts in my system were Kenwood's KFC-6982ie  and a 300W Pioneer 10" shallow sub, all powered by an Alpine PDX-5 five  channel amp.  These speakers offer great mids and highs, but are rated at  a much lower power level than the KFC-6982ie 6x9's.  Don't expect a lot of  bass from these speakers, just good vocal fillers.  One drawback is that  they are really designed for a 6-1/2"opening even though they state they  will work on a 6-3/4" opening.  The larger opening is achieved by use of the  tabs or ears on the outside of the speaker frame.  To effectively seal a  larger opening (such as mine which was 6-3/4"), I used foam insulating  tape on the back side of the speaker frame.   Also, I had to bias my  amplifier (like setting a fader control) to the front 6x9 speakers, driving  these with less power to balance the system. The speakers work great as  part of a system, but I would not rely on them solely in a two channel  system.

Reviewer: Dave from Kansas  
I bought these speakers to improve the sound in my Nisan Frontier pickup.  The adapter kit that came for the truck did not fit very well and after putting the doors back together I tried them for sound.  They gave me about 1/2 the volume of the factory speakers that I removed and almost no bass.  Even with the radio set to Loud and the bass turned all the way up there was almost no bass.  I actually installed them twice thinking that I must have done something wrong.  The wrong thing was buying these speakers, the factory speakers are back in now.


 
Great speakers - Fits Neons! February-05-09
Reviewer: Hunter from Forest Lake, MN  
These speakers work great and sound great for the price.  Lacking a little in
bass but they are shallow speakers so I guess it's to be expected.  I was
going to mount them outside my door molding, but found that they did fit in
the factory location of my '95 Neon without any interference with the
window or track.  I did have to drill new holes to attach them, but that was
an easy process as well.  Definitely consider if you have shallow depth
requirements for you speakers.
