About the Kicker 46CSC54

Alexander H.

The streamlined speaker

Kicker consistently prioritizes vehicle fit along with quality in their CS Series car speakers, making them among the most popular we sell. And better fit doesn't come at the cost of better sound — you'll find several cool innovations at work here. Kicker's low-protrusion tweeter, driven by a neodymium magnet, delivers your music's highs with control and clarity. And their UV-treated poly-foam surround equips this Kicker speaker for enduring performance no matter what extremes life in your car door brings.

Consistently solid sound

Kicker's 46CSC54 5-1/4" 2-way speaker serves up stellar sound using a polypropylene woofer for the lower frequencies and a PEI balanced dome tweeter for the highs. You'll get good results powering these speakers with a factory radio, but use an aftermarket car stereo or an outboard amp to enjoy classic Kicker quality with more detail and punch.

Features

Polypropylene Woofer Cones: The Kicker CS-series speakers feature polypropylene woofer cones, resistant to moisture and the temperature extremes found in automotive applications.

Surrounds: The ribbed polyester foam surrounds allow extended cone excursion for additional bass output and higher SPL.

Balanced-Dome Tweeters: Each speaker uses a ½" PEI (polyetherimide) balanced-dome tweeter. A balanced dome tweeter has a dome placed inside a cone, with equal reproduction area given the cone and dome sections.

Q
Will these speakers work with a factory radio? 2001 Porsche Boxster S. Is there any risk to damaging the factory radio or amp?
beau  May 03, 2023
1 answer
A
We would not expect any issues using these speakers with your factory system. The factory speakers were also 4-ohm. Speaker impedance is concern we typically have, but that won't be an issue here.
zachary  May 03, 2023 (Staff)
Q
would DS18 PRO-X6BM - 6.5" Bullet Mid-range Loudspeaker - 250 Watts RMS 500 Watts MAX, 8-Ohms fit a 2008 honda ridgeline?
eddie  Jan 24, 2023
1 answer
A
We only have a fitment guide for speakers that we carry so we wouldn't be able to say for certainty if that DS18 model would work however we have plenty of other models that would. We have experts standing by at 800.324.9695 that can help track down the perfect ones for the set up in Ridgeline so please give us a call!

Q
My vehicle was not equipped from factory with speakers but the connection is there. Will this just be a plug and play set up or will I need more components to get to work?
phillip  Jan 14, 2023

A
It's possible you may need other accessories like brackets and a wiring harness to install a speaker in this location. We would need to know more information about your vehicle. Give us a call at 1-800-324-9695 and we'd love to help you find the parts you need!

emerson  Feb 05, 2022

A
yes. I have an '08 CRV and I just put the speakers behind the factory grille
michael  Feb 07, 2022
Q
Im getting some distortion when all 4 door speakers are connected. Is this because the factory amp isnt giving enough power?
heather  Mar 26, 2021

I've had these speakers installed for 2 years now, almost to the day. I've only put 1,000 miles on my Durango since (I bought a new car the same week I did my speakers so it's not a daily driver anymore), but something I haven't ever been happy about is the low quality of the speakers in my Durango when I do drive it. I had nice pioneers before, too nice, but someone popped the cones with a screwdriver when it was broken into, so I thought let me try Kicker. Affordable, decent reviews. After 2 years of fuzz and very weak sound with a stereo that should power them like the pioneers... personally, I'm over it and replacing with another brand. Sometimes your issue is a amp issue when you get distortion or bad sign, but I personally think it's just that these aren't high quality or dynamic at all. I don't even know why kicker would put their name on them. Their subs are really nice and powerful, but door speakers, I'm not convinced.

Q
Do theses speakers work well at or near full blast?
levi  Aug 14, 2020
3 answers
A
they work well up to mid volume then they'll start to pop I am running an alpine deck with an alpine amp I think it's somewhere the way the amp is set up but I haven't called Crutchfield yet to work through it the one thing that they told me to do I have done and did not cure the problem So I have to dig deeper into it but I haven't had the time
tim  Aug 26, 2020
A
Yes, but I recommend hooking them up to an amp. I hooked these and my front 6x9's up to a kicker amo and it made all the difference. The frequency is slightly lower than other models so the amp is night and day towards the sound! Hope this helps. If not, I recommend the Rockford Fosgates, I had those as well!
landon  Aug 14, 2020
A
They work great in full power. No distortion but I'm also not pushing mine very hard. The receiver I have is only rated at about 45 watts rms. I'm very pleased with sound for the size that they are

Q
What would be a good amp for 4 of these? Considering ohms and watts?
austin  Apr 16, 2019
1 answer
A
Thanks for your question. For information on selecting the best amp I would recommend reaching out to an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat. They will be able to help determine the differences between the amp models and help you make the best choice for your system.
