Kenwood KFC-1653MRW (White) 150W 6.5" 2-Way KFC Series Coaxial Marine Speakers + Magnet Phone Holder

By no means am I an audio guru but man what a noticeable difference installing these over the cheaper set we previously had. I thought previously it was a power output issue so I didn't bother buying a new set of expensive speakers. For $60 these were worth a shot and I am more than pleased. With a basic Kenwood headunit and no amp, the sound is pretty impressive for a $160 setup. Easy to install as well. Simply drill the holes using the supplied template, attach with some screws, plug in the 2 wires per speaker and you're done. They look good on our center console as well. Thanks Kenwood. Money well spent.

Purchased for replacing existing (broken grills) boat speakers. Kenwood grills much more robust. Easy install, hardware included (bag taped to protective cardboard on one of the speakers). Very pleased!

I was looking to purchase marine speakers to place in the cockpit of my 22 foot sailboat. Marine speakers are expensive and I had pretty much made up my mind what I was going to get when I ran across these at Amazon. I did some research and, based on what I learned, this was a good buy. Now they are installed and I am so pleased that I VOLUNTARILY sought out the page at Amazon where I could place this review. They sound great and look terrific. Really, I think somebody made a mistake in pricing these. If you are looking for reasonably priced marine speakers that won't disappoint, these are the ones.

Bought two sets of these for our pontoon. Had them overnighted as I only had a day to get them installed before we wanted to get on the water. What should have been a very simple install (remove the old speakers, unplug them, plug these in, and re-mount them) was made infinitely more complicated because Kenwood can't be bothered to include the lug connectors that fit their speaker lugs. Every pair of speakers I have ever purchased (and there have been many of them), have always come with the appropriate connectors to make wiring up the speakers an easy, uncomplicated problem. It took a trip to three different stores to find the correct lug connectors to use - and even then, I had to use some that weren't a great fit, but worked. The good thing is, they sound decent and once I had the correct parts, the install was very easy. Would give them 5 stars right out of the box, if they had spent an extra $0.30 and included the connector pieces.

I bought these speakers long with the Kenwood P-WD250MRW 10-Inch Marine Subwoofer and Amplifier Package and the Kenwood KMR-M312BT Marine Receiver with Built in Bluetooth KMRM312BT . The cutout holes were slightly larger than the old Kenwood speakers I replaced, and had to drill new holes I purchased the Boss AMP kit for the amp/sub, but really only needed the stereo speaker wire and the long RCA cable. I mounted the subwoofer in the middle of the boat behind the captain's chair, so there was a nice hollow space on the other side of the speaker, and the head unit, speakers, amp/subwoofer all sound amazing. My only regret is that I didn't purchase a 2 channel amp, because I'd like to wire up another pair of speakers, and this amp is only one channel. As other reviews stated, the dash is not that bright, but other than that, I'm rating 5 stars, though, because product worked as intended and sounds amazing...these speakers sound great!

After putting up with tinny, stock speakers for years in our '94 Chaparral, we swapped them out for these in about an hour for a set of four (no cutting, just new screw holes). The difference in sound is amazing!! Decent bass, great treble. I did notice that our forward speakers, which had individual plastic "cups" installed under the seat to protect the speaker from stowed items under the front seat, had much more pronounced bass than the rear speakers, which were mounted into a void in a part of the boat. Bottom line: well, well, well worth the money for these speakers. Next up: installing four into our travel trailer.

Sound is OK but not a noticeable improvement over my 20 year old JBLs. Spend more if you want great sound.

Great speakers. I ordered 2 sets of these for my boat, not expecting alot out of a 6.5" speaker. Both sets were installed under the rear seat, so it creates a "Speaker Box" and pumps out a considerable amount of bass. Considering the cost and size, you can't go wrong. I'm very happy with my purchase and run them off of a Pioneer Deck with no additional amp. I can only imagine the sound if you ran an amp to a sub and used these for mids/highs only. Very pleased and highly recommended.

Powermusik an der frischen Luft. Bei Wind und Wetter. Bei salziger Luft. Diese Boxen haben mir viel Freude bereitet, daher wieder gekauft. Das Vorgängermodell war fast 10 Jahre im Saisoneinsatz, da investiert man gerne in die Erneuerung.

bought for my husband, he is delighted with these speakers

Buon prodotto a prezzo migliore di quanto trovato sul mercato. Buono anche il tempo di consegna e la serietà del servizio.

Amplifies sound to listen to wile it is wet outside

A great value purchase and sounds great on the boat on open seas. Although plastic, they have strong construction and more robust than those I had before. Pleased with purchase
