Default Your take on Kicker

what do you think about kicker brand audio gear?

I have had the subs and amp for 2 years now and have no problems with them and subs sound like they are brand new

the reason I ask is because I may be buying some speakers from them soon and well I all ready have the other stuff so might as well get the speakers ya know

:Edit:

and is there anything I need to know before buying them and replacing them all?

I'm doing them all man the ones in the door, ones on the dash, and the ones in the back and I allready have them all in my shopping cart but I first want to make sure I am getting the right ones and if I need anything else for the install

and the attachment is the speakers

and I'm buying from onlinecarstereo.com

they sound like crap, but they sure can kick (hence the name). if you want loud and dont care about the quality of the sound, then kicker all the way.

quality sound but not something that can just get drowned out by the subs

I have been looking at audiobahn stuff and they have some really good reviews on there products

how ever I fear I will have to get a new amp because mine is just a mono for the 1 sub I have... and now I will have to get a 4 channel or something correct?

OK, here is a general rule that is good for people who arent familiar with quality brands.... do NOT buy anything that you can buy at Walmart. The only exception is that walmart sells some Alpine stuff.


Are you looking to power your new surrounds off of your HU or buy an amp? What is your budget?
