About the Kenwood KFC-1079ie
Your music will soar on the smooth highs and expressive mids of Kenwood's KFC-1079ie 4" speakers. A smooth, domed ring around the PEI balanced dome tweeter virtually eliminates "bounce back" — reflected sound waves that interfere with direct sound coming from the tweeter itself. You'll benefit from a sharper stereo image and better dispersion.
Kenwood's trademark pearl-mica injection-molded polypropylene cone delivers good power handling, impressive durability, and punchy bass response.

Product Research
Features
Image Enhancer: The KFC-1079ie is equipped with Kenwood's patented Image Enhancer surrounding the tweeters. Its smooth rounded surface eliminates most of the reflected sound waves that would interfere with the direct sound waves coming from the tweeters. The end result is a better dispersion pattern, less distortion, and clear high-frequency reproduction.
Woofers: The woofer cones are silver Pearl Mica Injection-Molded Polypropylene. Uniform pearl mica crystals form an overlapping structure that adds strength and heat resistance to polypropylene; the result is reduced distortion and improved reliability.
Tweeters: The speakers have a 1" PEI balanced dome tweeter. A semi-dome tweeter has a dome placed inside a cone. "Balanced dome" tweeters are semi-dome tweeters with equal reproduction area given the cone and dome portions of the tweeter.
Surrounds: The speakers have a rubber surround for a smoother response.
Grilles: The supplied hard plastic grilles have a unique 3-spoke design with a cutout for the Image Enhancer.
