Customer Ratings & Reviews

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Huge upgrade from stock speakers I recently installed Kicker CS Series speakers in my car, and the difference compared to the factory speakers is night and day. The sound is much clearer, vocals are crisp, and the bass is noticeably stronger even without a subwoofer. Music sounds fuller and louder without distortion at higher volumes. Installation was straightforward, and the build quality feels solid for the price. These speakers handle different genres really well — from hip-hop to rock — and they don’t sound tinny like a lot of stock systems do. Even running them off the factory head unit, they perform great, and I can already tell they’ll sound even better once I add an amp. For anyone looking for an affordable but noticeable audio upgrade, the Kicker CS Series speakers are 100% worth it. Great sound, great value, and exactly what I was hoping for.

For those seeking a significant audio enhancement in an older vehicle, such as my 2004 GMC Envoy SLT, these speakers present an excellent value. The sound quality is markedly superior to the factory speakers, and they have proven remarkably durable over eight months of consistent use, even under demanding conditions. Installation Experience: I chose to directly solder the speakers to the factory wiring to expedite the installation process. While this bypassed the need to wait for an adapter kit, it did require extra labor. For a cleaner and faster installation, I strongly recommend ordering the vehicle-specific adapter kit. This would transform the 20-minute soldering task into a simple 5-minute clip-in procedure. Pros: Exceptional Sound for the Price: Provides a noticeable improvement in audio quality compared to stock speakers, particularly when paired with an aftermarket amplifier. Durable Construction: These speakers have endured eight months of use while maintaining excellent sound performance. Relatively Straightforward Installation (Even Without Adapters): Removing door panels and replacing speakers is a simple process. Amplifier Pairing: An aftermarket amplifier unlocks the full potential of these speakers for the best possible sound quality Cons: Soldering May Be Required (Without Adapter Kit): Soldering skills or the correct adapter kit are essential to avoid cutting and splicing wires. Adapter Kit Recommended for a Streamlined Installation: Without the kit, soldering is necessary, which can be time-consuming. Overall: These speakers are a worthwhile upgrade if you possess basic car audio installation skills or are prepared to purchase the adapter kit. The sound quality is impressive for their price, and their durability is commendable. Despite my less patient installation, which took longer than it would have with the adapter kit, I am extremely pleased with the outcome. I would readily purchase these speakers again. For the best results, especially when using them with the factory radio, consider adding an aftermarket amplifier. Recommendation: If you are comfortable with minor modifications (or patient enough to wait for the adapter kit), I highly recommend purchasing these speakers!

The speakers fit great on mu truck and sound amazing. I wasnt expecting such improvement

The box comes with everything you need for an easy installation and amazing base I would absolutely recommend these to anyone looking to upgrade their system

These are great mid-range(tone) speakers that are top quality for a good price. For their size, they sound great. They definitely have more range than the stock speakers. And Kicker equipment is developed in Stillwater, OK. Being from Oklahoma myself, that's another big draw to the company. I won't get lesser speakers ever again. These are worth waiting for if you are saving up for speakers.

I bought these to upgrade my stock speakers in my Subaru Wilderness Outback ( non-Harman Kardon edition). Though they are not magical forgive me for being an audiophile snob, I will say that they sound full and strong. Even when driven at high volume they do not exhibit a hint of distortion. They maintain musical balance and are very clear. I would certainly recommend them to anyone willing to spend the $. Kudos to Victor for a fine installation.

The sounds quality is of the charts best sounds I've heard I love this speakers, very clean. Perfect volume max. I would recommend this to all my friends and family. The bass is so perfect and over excellent. It was an easy installation and quick.

Bought these for a 2015 Subaru Legacy and it greatly improved the sound. Bass is excellent, crisp sound, no longer have this car but miss the speakers

Sound great and they fit great also had to get the brackets so they could fit perfectly in my car

These kicker speakers really changed my audio dynamic in my 2022 WRX. They have enough bass on deep notes and enough range for high hats. For the price its a pretty quality 3way mid speaker. Id recommend to a friend if trying to install something quality and budget friendly.

Not a bad set up for the price. Decent bass. Good vocals

Sounds great for a decent price with an easy install

In my 2019 Hyundai Sonata install. 6.75(6-3/4) 2 way speakers fit well with adapters. The sound is better than the stock speakers but the mid-range is not strong enough even though this goes down to 40hz. It does have a good punch of bass. Kicker is known for its hard hitting bass subs and this fits the bill. The tweeter is clear with the volume at max with no distortion with the factory radio. It was either these or the Pioneer TS-A652F both have comparable specs. So if you're having issues looking for a good sounding speaker look no further than these. Worth the money even though I bought mine as an Open Box.

Again very good product. We installed them in a 2019 F150. You will need to remove and cut the mounting bracket from the old speaker for proper installation. Very good sound. Also recommend to add subs. We installed a truck box and gave the already good sounding Kicker speaker a Bass Lift. lol

These sound great, loud volume with no distortion.

When I was shopping for speakers to upgrade my stock system, I researched for several months and visited many audio retail shops around my town. I finally decided on these speakers, beating out JL audio C1 series. The reason being that the value is excellent for the sound quality. These speakers are less expensive than the JL’s and produce a bit more bass. The high frequency of the kickers are about the same as the JL’s however, the kickers really won in the lower end frequency. A much richer and deeper listening experience in my opinion. The Kickers are packaged with all the wiring and connectors you’ll need for a quick swap. My first time doing it alone on a 2017 Tahoe and it took about 45 minutes for the first rear door and about 15 minutes for the second door once I got the hang of it. I recommend using some kind of sound deadening material around the door frame to prevent rattling. These speakers are much more robust than factory and can cause the door to make unwanted noises from vibrations.

Solid speakers ngl bass is popping. They dobt rattle like my stock speakers.

excellent frame stiffness, and easy mounting. The sound is an outstanding balance, you might still want a sub if you are looking for deep bass. The bass it does cover is very tight and balanced, so you can tell what is being played, not fuzzy or boomy.

Just put these in a 72 Chevy truck to replace where the previous owner put some 5.25 speakers in the kick panels. These replaced some 30+ year old Clarion speakers that were decent for their age. Couldn’t get good sound at freeway speeds... now I get them clear as day. These are good mid-priced speakers. Wired directly to an older Kenwood unit 40x4, no amp. These are the only 2 speakers in my truck right now. Not bad sound at all. Treble: 8 out of 10 stars... clear sound Mid: 9 out of 10... very good Bass: 9 of 10... you don’t get much bass out of a 5.25 2-way, but I’m rating these based on the LACK OF DISTORTION you get when bass frequencies come through at louder volumes, like you do in a lot of speakers. These speakers have a pretty good crossover. If you’re getting these to add to a system, these would be good to save you some money from some premiums that sound a hair better. Hopefully these last for a good while.
