About the Kicker 41KSS54
The component sound
The component sound
Kicker's 41KSS54 component system features two quality 5-1/4" woofers, two powerful tweeters, and two external crossovers. The highly sensitive design of these speakers conjures hefty volume, even from low-powered factory radios. And with efficient crossovers dialing in the division of low and high frequencies to designated speakers, this system will reveal nuances in your music you may have never heard.
You'll gain the satisfying impact of full midbass and midrange sound from the 5-1/4" polypropylene woofer and its powerful magnet. The silk dome tweeter will deliver subtle vocal and instrumental details, adding musical dimension that factory speakers just can't manage. The crossover network features 3 tweeter settings so you can attenuate the highs to match the woofer's output.
Versatile structure
This 41KSS54 system is one of the most installation-friendly Kicker systems yet. These low-profile woofers are well under 2" deep, making them a match for almost any car. Kicker also gives you the option of screwing the tweeter on in place of the woofer's removable phase plug, giving you a coaxial speaker that benefits from the cleaner sound of using external crossovers.
Installation note: You'll need a pair of our universal backstraps to install the tweeters in the factory locations.

Features
Woofer Cones: The Kicker KS-series speakers feature durable Polypropylene woofer cones, resistant to the moisture and temperature extremes found in automotive applications.
5x7 Bracket: The included brackets allow mounting the woofers in many 5x7 and 6x8 applications.
Tweeter Mounting Options: The tweeters come with brackets to allow multiple mounting configurations; flush-mounted, angle-mounted, and surface-mounted:
Flush | Angle | Surface | |
---|---|---|---|
Mounting Height | 0.30" | 0.616" | 1.165" |
Mounting Depth | 0.65" | 0.5" | screw depth |
Frame Diameter | 2.317" | 2.335" | 1.914" |
Cutout Diameter | 1.753" | 1.765" | N/A |
Coaxial Tweeter Mount: In addition to standard tweeter mounting options, the included tweeter mounting post lets you mount the tweeter directly to the center of the woofer, giving you a standard coaxial speaker. When the tweeter is attached to the woofer the mounting height increases to 0.768" (top mount) and the tweeter protrusion increases to 0.496" (bottom mount).
Crossovers: The component system includes passive 2-way crossover networks for a seamless transition between the woofers and tweeters. The slope is 12dB per octave (both high pass and low pass) and the crossover point is 4000 Hz. A switch on each crossover allows you to attenuate the tweeter output; 0 dB, -4.5 dB, or -9 dB. The crossover has screw terminals that will accept bare wire or spade terminals up to 0.3" wide. The crossovers' dimensions are:
- Length: 5.58"
- Width: 2.85"
- Height: 1.27"

The title says it all, crisp sound and very clean. I set the crossovers up on the middle setting and I was very impressed with the sound. The perfect setup for what I had in mind for my Jeep Wrangler, which was installing a subwoofer and amp.
