    These come with everything you need to mount in your boat. They are high quality and robust. The music is clear and sounds great.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Speakers!

    I have eight (8) speakers this size in my motor yacht. The speakers are powered by an Alpine 50W, four (4) channel amplifier. Because the power from 4 channels must be shared with 8 speakers, the amp. is only pushing 25Watts to each speaker. Since these Kenwoods 50Watt speakers, I was worried that there wouldn't be enough power to let the Kenwoods sing. Fortunately, they are singing just fine. I haven't even tried anything near full volume; they're that loud and clear. Not only do these Kenwoods sound excellent, but they look great. They appear very rugged and durable.

    The only flaw is that the face plate must be aligned with the screw holes. This means that you cannot rotate the faceplate, independently from the screw holes. When using existing screw holes from prior speakers, the faceplate with the Kenwood name may be crooked. The solution is to drill new screw holes or live with a crooked faceplate. However, even that won't work if, like in my situation, the existing speaker wires that connect to the speaker are too short to run to the bottom of the Kenwood (where the two power terminals are located). The existing speaker wires barely made it out from the cutout. Hence, extending them by cutting and splicing additional wire would have meant a lot of extra disassembly to get to the wire from behind the bulkhead. As a result, I installed the speaker upside down. A rotating faceplate would have allowed me to rotate the faceplate so the Kenwood name was properly oriented. Nevertheless, these Kenwoods sound just as good upside down!

    Great sounding speakers for the price. I upgraded these from the stock speakers on a boat and I am using them without an amp. Full sound with good bass. Easy to install and I didn’t have to cut the pre-existing hole bigger because they fit the standard 6.5 marine speaker hole from the factory.

    The speakers fit and sound great with amazing bass. Unlike other coaxial speakers the the tweeter goes through the woofer it's separate allowing for better sound quality.

    Perform great! Very nice speakers when paired with my Fusion RA-55. Cranks plenty loud when sitting on the water. Can't hear it a whole lot when going full throttle, but you rarely can with any boat setup. No amp hooked up in my Grady-White. Good range and nice lows - surprisingly full sound. Large magnet on the back, and a nice construction. I was thinking about dropping the extra money on the Fusion 6.5" speakers, but I am very satisfied with these for the money. Can't speak to how well they hold up when exposed to the elements yet.

    *Update - more than two years later*
    These speakers are still running strong. Beyond impressed with the sound and durability of these speakers for the price. They still sound great and have no issues after over two years of use. They get sprayed plenty when washing the boat and have been exposed to water plenty. I've noticed no deterioration nor any other issues yet. Can't recommend enough!
