Our take on the Kenwood KFC-P709PS

by Buck Pomerantz

Kenwood's Performance Series speakers deliver the full range of your music with accuracy and warmth. The KFC-P709PS component speaker system includes two 6-3/4" woofers and two 1" dome tweeters, along with in-line crossover networks that simplify installation.

Woofer construction
Each woofer cone features a Diamond Array pattern that increases the strength of its surface, improving bass response as well as reducing internal vibrations and other distortions. The cone's rubber surround resists weathering and provides reliable support that keeps your music playing, no matter what. The woofers will fit in 6-3/4" and 6-1/2" factory speaker openings.

Separate tweeter for superior sound
The 1" soft dome tweeter mounts in a separate location closer to your ears, so it can broadcast the high-frequency details more effectively. The in-line crossover network routes the correct frequencies to the woofer and tweeter, so you hear clean, balanced sound.

Highlights:

Woofers
Tweeters
Crossovers

Woofers

Woofers: The 6-3/4" woofer cones are textured Polypropylene and use rubber surrounds for added durability and bass response. The woofer basket is designed to fit a standard 4-hole 6-3/4" application. The included adapter rings expand the woofers' compatibility to include the 3-hole 6-3/4" pattern used by GM and Chrysler, the standard 3-hole 6-1/2" pattern, and Ford's 4-hole 6-1/2" pattern. Please check the Crutchfield Vehicle Selector to confirm compatibility with your vehicle.

Tweeters

Soft Dome Tweeters: The 1" soft dome tweeters offer smooth highs and low distortion.

Tweeter Mounting Options: The tweeters can be flush mounted using the supplied housings and metal retaining-clips. Once installed the tweeters can pivot in the housing, so their angle can be adjusted to obtain a better soundstage. The tweeters can also be top or bottom mounted in a factory tweeter location using the included brackets. The tweeters cannot pivot when installed in the OEM brackets. Once mounted in the appropriate housing, the tweeters have these dimensions:

	Flush Mount	Factory Top Mount (remove bottom mount flanges)	Factory Bottom Mount (remove top mount flanges)
Mounting Depth	1.233"	mounting screw depth	0.993"
Mounting Height	0.668"	0.913"	0"
Cutout Diameter	1.757"	1.706"	1.706"
Frame Diameter	2.081"	2.630"	2.624"

Crossovers

Crossover Network: The system features 6 dB/octave high-pass crossovers at 5 kHz. The crossovers are integrated in the included 28" speaker wire.

I ordered these speakers by mistake! I had another brand picked out when browsing before
and realized I had ordered wrong when the package arrived. I know Crutchfield would swap
if I asked but wanted to give Kenwood a try, needless to try I was not disappointed and
saved a little money.

Good Value

Written By Jeff, Kansas on Saturday, March 13, 2010

I just installed these along with their smaller brethren, the P509PS's, in my '01 Neon.
The sound produced by these with a decent 4 channel is really breathtaking. They
replaced the factory door and dash speakers with a few minor tweaks.

The only real problem I ran into with these is the length of wire from the tweeters to the
main speakers. It wasn't long enough for the run from the factory dash location to the
door speaker. So I ended up just splicing about 5" of wiring into them to get them to
reach. Also, it's not really mentioned nor pictured, but the crossover is heatshrinked into
the wiring run. Might be an issue for some, but I have been completely happy with these
once installed.

Crutchfield Customer Review

The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order.

I installed a new system in a 1999 Altima GLE for my son as a replacement to the
OEM system. They were installed in the doors along with a Sony CDX-GT540UI
receiver and a pair of Sony speakers in the rear. The 6 1/4's fit perfectly in
the doors but the tweeters required custom installation to replace the existing
tweeters. It turned out very well and they sound great. The lows are more than
adequate despite the absence of an external amp and sub-woofer. If you want a
quality pair of separates at a great price I recommend the Kenwood KFC-P709PS
package. In addition, shortly after purchase, I found the speakers on line at a
lower price and Crutchfield matched it.

Crutchfield Customer Review

The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order.

I bought these to replace the Monsoon system that was in the car, I have to say I am very happy with them. I listen mostly to EDM such as Drum&Bass-Dubstep-House-Electro, and these hold up to the wide range of frequencies in the music. The mid and highs are great, I don't use them for bass as I have a subwoofer installed. But I would imagine they would hold up well.

Pros:

Very clear sound reproduction for the price

Cons:

Installation a pain in my Passat(not Kenwoods fault)

Awesome Upgrade

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Crutchfield Customer Review

The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order.

Bought these to replace the stock speakers in a Montero Sport, and boy I was surprised by the difference! There was a definite sound quality improvement and everything fit (mostly). Overall I am extremely satisfied with this product and I'm about to buy these again for the rear speakers. The greatest thing is that Crutchfield provided the wiring harness, which made installation completely easy!

If you want a thumping bass you'll probably want a subwoofer.

Definitely take note on the mounting depth if you're planning on mounting these tweeters in the door panels. The screw on the back of the tweeter is long and will interfere with the inside of the door. On my installation I had to drill a clearance hole for these to fit.

Pros:

Crutchfield quality parts and service can't be beat! Great Mid-bass and superior highs.

Cons:

None! Other than the mount of the tweeter mentioned above.

Nice upgrade from factory units

Written By HootMan, Walla Walla, WA on Monday, October 24, 2011

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Crutchfield Customer Review

The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order.

I went looking for replacements for the factory front door component speakers in a 2007 Chevy Colorado standard cab. The factory speakers had failed twice (replaced once under warranty). Checked out some options at Crutchfield online and then called to ask an advisor which product may be the easiest to install. The advisor was great and very helpful and suggested these Kenwoods.

Mounting the woofers took a little planning and required drilling a couple of screw holes for the supplied mounting bracket. They fit perfectly behing the stock door panel.

I was able to mount the tweeters in the supplied bracket by removing the factory trim ring and cutting out the grill with a utility knife. The finished install looks as good or better than the factory tweeter.

The sound from these speakers is a HUGE improvement from the factory units. The highs are much brighter and the lows much more solid. They would sound even better with a more powerful stereo or power amp but there are hassles involved with changing the stereo units in late model GM vehicles because the warning chimes are through the stereo.

I would highly recommend these speakers and Crutchfield to anyone that wants to improve the factory sound and/or replace factory speakers that have failed.

Pros:

Much better sound than factory speakers. Fairly easy install.

The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order.

If you are looking for slappin' bass don't, that is not what these are for... get a sub. IF you are looking for a very good mid-bass with excellent sound then this is it. The clarity is extremely good and is exactly what I was looking for. This was a replacement for my factory mid/bass tweeter speakers and what a huge difference in clarity from the stock stuff.

Pros:

If you are looking for true clarity in sound then this is the set and excellent for the price point

Cons:

NONE

I just installed these in an '02 Civic SI along with a set of Kicker coaxials and 2 Boston Acoustics 8's. The sound from these Kenwoods is surprisingly full for a seperate in this price range. They lack the low end of higher priced seperates, and in my opinion play a little on the bright side, but for the price and the simplified install due to inline crossovers, worth every penny. I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for a good, clean, reasonably priced 6 1/2 component. Run them with a sub to even out the sound and you'll be satisfied. (by the way, they're powered by a rockford 500 4 channel rated at 67.5 watts/channel)
