Customer Ratings & Reviews

These speakers were great for me for a couple years until this morning. Seemingly overnight, they went from “fine” to one of them sounding distorted and scratchy with bass. I checked the wiring and mounting, and the cone and other parts don’t appear damaged; so the defect is clearly internal - likely the coil. Darn shame that my 2005 Camry’s stock speakers lasted longer than these…

Speakers were very easy to install. Once installed, they sound way more crisp and have WAY more bass especially if you are upgrading stock speakers in your vehicle. Do recommend these speakers for a very decent upgrade from stock.

Installed these in the front doors of a 2017 f-150. Have much improved clarity and bass over the factor paper 6x9’s. Initial quality out of the box looked good, and the supplied hardware and wiring worked well. After installation, one speaker worked great, exactly as it should. The other speaker however, had a horrible rattle as if it were blown. Further inspection revealed that the area where the center of the woofer cone meets the stem of the tweeters was rubbing and creating friction and the terrible rattling noise. Some massaging of the cone with a pick and screwdriver fixed the clearance issue, but I was a little disappointed that I had to fix it at all. Overall good speakers for the money, but test your speakers first before installing.

Got 2 pairs of these to replace my speakers in my 8th gen maxima . Love it way better than the stock speakers. They sound good with the stock stereo. I was expecting it to sound like crap with the stock steeeo but they dont . Installing was easy i didnt get the speaker wire adapters i soldered the wires to the speaker. For the 8th gen maxima the holes dont line up for the read deck speakers . But i used the same screws and secured it by the speaker flanges . Maybe later ill make an adapter but for now it works .

These speakers sound amazing and were super easy to install. The sound quality is clear, the bass is strong, and they made a huge difference compared to my old factory speakers. They handle music really well at high volume without sounding distorted. Definitely a great value for the money and I would recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their car audio system.

I've replaced my factory speakers with these jointz and, I was utterly amazed and satisfied with the sound quality and bass these things put out. If I could have 6×9's n my 4 doors and my dash, they'd b there. The price I paid 4 these speakers were affordable and, I can't stress how impressed I am. I give 5 STARS all around 4 these kickers and the affordable price that Best Buy offers. I say 2 any1 looking 4 quality replacement GO GET THESE!!!

I have heard of Kicker, and this is the first pair of kickers i have ever owned. I had JBL Stage 6x8 speakers and they didnt sound that great. I couldn’t hear the highs very well. When I purchased these 6x8 Kicker speakers for my 2008 Ford Focus, i was blown away by the sound quality. I can hear the highs and the lows! I love these speakers and i would definitely buy them again!

For this review I'll have two sections. One for the product which is the main review and the other will be my experience as a first time buyer doing my own installation.. So as far as the product goes I was replacing the original speakers of my vehicle because there would be crackling noise at times and it was getting annoying. I get a nice volume out of these and I'm still using the original vehicle receiver. I did notice that the higher frequencies are a bit loud. I slightly notched that down on the EQ. I also noticed that there was some bass missing. I felt like it was maybe tight but not as punchy as my previous speakers. There are some songs I played in which I thought the bass sounded alright and I know my ears will eventually get used to it. I did boost the bass some on the EQ by a lot to see how it sounded but then I cut it down to leave just a small boost because I couldn't tell much difference. So for my experience, which doesn't affect my rating, this is just for people who are looking into replacing your speakers and maybe it's your first time like mine. I did some research online to see what size speakers mine were. Everywhere I went it said that my original speakers were 6x9. So initially I bought a pair of 6x9. They were also kickers and they looked really nice. Unfortunately, when I took my door apart, I noticed my car speakers were smaller. They weren't going to fit the speaker plate. And to find one exactly for my vehicle was going to be very difficult. So if this is your first time replacing speakers make time to check your vehicle and verify the actual size before buying. Thankfully, best buy accepted my return and allowed me to switch them for this set of speakers. I also ordered a speaker harness connector. They should've worked but I've no idea why it didn't so I had to solder the speaker cables onto the speaker plate so I could use the connector from that plate like the original speakers were installed. But it's worth trying to see if you need a speaker harness too and that it works before you solder anything. Well anyways, this review might get lost in the sea of reviews but if it helps somebody out then it's worth it. If you really want bass then I would suggest looking for other speakers. But if you are planning on maybe installing a sub then it won't matter much because these will take care of the middle and higher frequencies (especially the highs).

I had these speakers installed just a few weeks ago and I have to say I am amazed of how much of a difference it has made in my car. I love how loud the speakers are and the speakers have some pretty good bass to them. I do not own a system but it kinda sounds like I have one in my car. I am very pleased with my purchase and the gentleman that installed my stereo and speakers was very polite and freindly, he provided awesome customer service.

Sounds great an a great upgrade for my f150 fit great to

Purchased an Alpine ILX W650 and placed these Kickers CSC 68 speakers in rear panel directly behind me and the Polk Audios DB572 up front. Kickers have a full, low, bass sound that is appreciated and compliment the better highs Polk Audio DB 572 put out. $61.00 was a fantastic deal. Rock Out!!

Good product; it has balanced sound, and it is also easy to install.

[Employee of bestbuy] I have personally been through a LOAD of different speakers, some by multiple companies and some by the same company but multiple other models. This is what I have to say about these. Comparing to the kenwood concert speakers; The sound these produce is absolutely wicked. So much more clearer especially whenever things get loud! I love the fact that I can turn it up and not worry about distortion, these things are so good. The bass these produce is excellent, grant it, it isn't a full blown subwoofer, but these reach frequencies that are perfect for anyone that listens to edm, rap, and more. The build quality on these are like no other, tweeters are secure, cone is mainly plastic but sturdy, everything about these speakers is everything that I've been looking for. If you are able to go to bestbuy and compare the Kicker CS series with the KS series you will see what I mean when i say these things are CLEAR.

I’m an audiophile, and any bad reviews on these speakers just don’t hold up. Bought these after finding a true lack of bass from my 6x9 JL Audio speakers. These definitely fill in the gap where the bass was missing! The miss and highs are great as well, no complaints at all. The detail in the highs is wonderful. For reference I am running a Pioneer amp GM-D9705 (75 watts per channel RMS) with the Pioneer Sound Processor, and AudioControl LC7i in a 2018 Dodge Challenger. If you give these the right power/environment you should thoroughly enjoy them!!

I would not trust the investment in my car sound system to just anyone. I had the auto technician in the past work on my vehicle and was absolutely pleased with the work and outcome. This time I discussed what I was looking for in a new system and the auto technician advised he would make a recommendation and he would present it to me. I received the estimate and I was absolutely pleased with his recommendations. His recommendations, work on my vehicle and the system he completed installing was by far the best I could have expected. Thank you Best Buy for such a great installation and making this experience a memorable one.

Very nice speakers very nice base I put these 2 in my front door panels and now I’m getting 2 more for my back deck of my car it’s going to be super loud!!

This is definitely a great buy if you're looking to replace ANY factory speakers! Very straightforward installation and simple for anyone trying to DIY project. The bass on these speaker really sound crispy and loud. I would definitely recommend these for a budget friendly speaker with amazing sound! Really loving them. They got a installed on a Toyota Camry 2000.

I've always heard how good component speakers could sound. I just never wanted to pay the extra money for them. I sure am glad that I did this time. Solid mid-bass from the 6x9s, and pristine highs from the tweeters. Fits in factory locations, and make the soundstage HUGE! When coupled with Kicker's KEY Amplifier, it's amazing. Worth the extra cash for sure.

Great sound easy installation, and great service at the best buy store. We had the item in stock at the store and the sales fellow was very, very helpful. We definitely use best. Buy again for sound equipment.

They sound great work for a reg cab pickup truck. Easy to install
