Love them

Replaced factory speakers with these. Absolutely amazing sound. I'm guessing if I got an amp and did that it would improve, but honestly they sound great. Even fully cranked no distortion nice clean crisp sound.

Copper and steel wool.

I purchased 2 pairs of these for my 2022 Soul Ex. The harness adapter and the speaker adapter's worked great. Easy install! I did an extensive listen test before I bought these speakers. Once installed with my amp and OFC input wiring and grounding cables, the system works great...no buzzing or alternator whine. However, I am not thrilled with the overall sound. These speakers are very bright and well...brassy sounding. Kind of a strange, metallic, tubular sound. The bass is well defined, for a 6 1/2 inch 2 way speaker, but the mids and highs are grainy and not smooth and rich sounding. To put it another way, think of listening to the tweeter thru a copper pipe placed near your ear and that pipe is full of steel wool and that steel wool is being pulled back and forth in the pipe, as the music plays. I know all of this may sound nuts but I've done my best to describe what I am hearing. In closing, I do want to extend a thank you to everyone at Crutchfield. My order arrived quickly and was very well packed. Five stars! Maybe these speakers will mellow with use and time. I'm willing to give it a fair shake. Thank you!

For the money? Perfectamundo !

Based upon reviews here (and elsewhere), I decided to give these speakers a go as a replacement for the original JBLs that came in my Toyota Highlander Hybrid Limited. I was not disappointed. Further, as someone who used to design and construct high-end home speakers, including crossovers to match the speaker components and enclosure characteristics I used, I tend to be fairly well-versed (and picky) in sound quality differentiation(s) . . . that also allowed an awareness for what quality raw components look and sound like. That all said, for the money these Kenwoods are light years ahead of the OEMs for increased top-end base, full mids and crisp highs. Sure, you can spend more and get a better sound, but you can also spend more and wouldn't be able to tell the difference. The installation (with Crutchfield supplied, no additional charge mounting accessories) was pretty much effortless. Full disclosure on that though . . . I had a money-making auto and boat stereo, CB and marine radio installation service when in high school, so there was really no way the install was going to get the better of my experiences. Finally, the free shipping had these guys in my hands in 2 days. Amazing. I'll be replacing my rear door speakers soon and now that I have gotten the sound I was looking for out of these Kenwoods, I see no reason not to go with them (and Crutchfield) again. Happy Holidays everyone!

On point and well worth it!

I have them installed in my 2009 Pontiac Vibe 1.8L Base along with a Kenwood Excelon DMX706S head unit. Sound is excellent and on point. Can't really say anything else other than I'm pretty happy with them overall.

Sufficient. Overpriced.

They are okay. I have them crossed over at 150hz and i have subwoofers to cover the low end. at 60 dollars they would be 5 stars. The 50 dollar skar speakers are just as good, but the skar door speakers can be a little boomy i guess. and these have no bass at all.

Nice Sounding Speakers for Dodge Challenger

Installed these in the rear deck of a 2018 Dodge Challenger. They fit perfectly with the supplied speaker adapter even though the website says they don't fit. These replaced some 6.5 Infinity Reference Coaxial that were way too bright for my taste. The Kenwood's have much smoother sound and put out more bass.

Wow

I have never bought kenwood before so was a bit hesitant. After getting them installed and some sound pumping thru them I was amazed. They are very clear sounding and could handle a good amount of bass. I will buy kenwood speakers from from here on out. I've been buying from crutchfield since 2002 and never have had an issue. The install was easy with the detailed instructions and free equipment.

These are a great replacement to the factory Toyota speakers. The sound is very crisp and clean. They also have decent bass for a 6.5" speaker. Installation was a breeze thanks to the included accessories from the Crutchfield team.

Wow these are amazing! Sounds clear, loud and smooth. Technically wasn't gonna fit in my 2015 jetta but using the adapter ring provided by kenwood plus adding a foam basket to improve the sound and push the speaker further out made it fit perfectly. Can't go wrong with those

Great sound and value.

These are a very nice complement to the Kenwoood Excelon KFC-X6902C Compenent speakers for the front of my 2016 Toyota 4Runner with Entune Plus. I used two pairs of the KFC-X174. One pair in the rear doors and another in the rear hatch. The metra mounting brackets 82-8148 and harness 72-8104 provided by Crutchfield made the installation very easy and precise with no modifications to the factory panel or wiring. All that is required is a gasket between the brackets and the vehicle. Also some foam between the speaker and panel. I used a Stinger Road Kill Fasting Ring RKFR6 for the gasket and foam at the panel. All of these Kenwood Excelon drivers combined deliver a great sound stage and listening experience with the factory head unit.

Good, solid speakers

These speakers appear to be well built, are quite hefty and produce a nice, clear sound. Not quite as dynamic (thus 4 stars) as I had expected but they are still top notch and I'm happy with them. They come with their own mounting brackets that worked better for me in my Nissan 370Z than the free ones supplied by Crutchfield. I would recommend these speakers and buy them again.

Replaced speakers in Bose 301 boxes

For the price, you can't beat the sound. I have a Kenwood Excel HU to a MTX 4CH giving shy of 75w per channel. These things are good! Pushing bass @ 80hz+ @ -12db and they hold very well. Previously had them with no amp and 55wx4 HU and did get some distortion at high volume 75% with a preset "ROCK" EQ. Once powered correctly, they just took off and never looked back!

Kenwood KFC-X174. Great speakers!

These speakers replaced the factory Bose speakers in my Silverado 2500HD, and there is no comparison! These speakers are so much more clear and crisp than the ones I replaced. You may find these speakers for a better price, but the extra parts and mounting hardware that Crutchfield supplies makes this the best deal by far. (Not to mention their phone support. Best tech support that I have ever had the opportunity to work with!)

Just replaced the factory speakers in the front door of my 2017 Hyundai Accent. Can NOT wait to get a second pair to replace the ones in the back door. I am amazed at the difference these speakers make to the sound quality of the factory stereo. The new Pioneer goes in tomorrow along with the subs so I'm really looking forward to how everything sounds together. I would highly recommend these speakers for sure!!
