Pure performance

How great do you feel about driving after running your ride through the car wash? With Kenwood's Performance Series speakers cleaning up your muddy factory sound, you'll get that feeling every time you start your engine. Kenwood has incorporated new technology into these speakers to give you the best sonic bang for your buck.

Enhanced sound

These KFC-6896PS 6"x8" speakers rock a polypropylene cone with a diamond array pattern, which minimizes distortion, while a rubber surround ensures overall durability. All the musical details are handled by the balanced dome tweeter, and dispersion is improved by Kenwood's proprietary Sound Field Enhancer.

Kenwood's Acoustic Sound Harmonizer uses slots on the mount housing the tweeters to improve the transition to the higher frequencies, so you'll experience a smoother sound overall. Grilles are not included — factory grilles are suitable for most installations.

Customer Q&A

5 questions already asked

Q
Does anyone know if speaker covers are available for these speakers?
joseph  Jan 18, 2023
1 answer
A
Grilles are not available for these speakers. It is actually quite uncommon for 5"x7" or 6"x8" speakers to have grilles since these sizes are generally only produces to accommodate factory speaker sizes. If possible, it would be advisable to upgrade to a 6"x9" speakers, which usually offer grilles.

Q
Can you use factory wiring to hook these speakers to?

I installed them in a 1993 Ford F-150 stock wiring worked fine. Perfect fit.
harold  Oct 20, 2020
Q
Would I need a amp for these. I have a kenwood 47s head unit install already?
anthony  Jul 30, 2020
1 answer
A
Do you HAVE to use and amp - No, they will work without an amp. However, do you WANT to use an amp with these speakers? Yes, yes you do. The speakers have excellent highs and range. If you have a sub woofer to handle the lows, they really come alive. (Yes, I am using an amp and sub)
