Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description Great sounding, easy-to-install midrange and highs make all the difference in your audio system. DS-Series Coaxial Speakers and 3-Way System provide the cost-effective ammo to keep up with your bass upgrade.

DS-Series Coaxial Speakers provide the cost-effective ammo to keep up with your bass upgrade. Click to enlarge.

DS Speakers are the best value for serious, drop-in upgrades in your doors. The woofers bear a polypropylene cone, UV-treated ribbed surround, enduring voice coil, and an interior-pleasing fresh look. The half-inch tweeters take the performance cues of higher-end coaxials, using a super-strong neodymium magnet and PEI (polyether imide) dome for louder, better-sounding highs.

The DS Series comes in eight different sizes, including the new DS650 with 6.5-inch midrange drivers. DS Coaxials fit any speaker cutout, starting from the 3.5-inch DS350 up to a handy 6 x 8 DS680 if your ride requires them. The 6 x 9 offering is actually the thrashin' DS6930 3-way system which mixes in an additional 2-inch mid.

DS680 Features

CIMP (Curvilinear Injection-Molded Polypropylene Woofer Cones)
A high performance composite, which remains rigid, minimizes cone flex and lowers harmonic distortion. The CIMP consists of a one-piece, injection-molded polypropylene material that moves as a piston, exhibiting power and control.

Utilizes a high strength steel basket, features a low-profile open design, and provides a solid foundation for the precision-aligned motor assembly.

Polypropylene cone with UV-treated ribbed surround.

Enhanced BAM (Basket and Motor) Assembly
Utilizes a high strength steel basket, features a low-profile open design, and provides a solid foundation for the precision-aligned motor assembly.

Optimized Polyfoam Ribbed Surround Radius
This allows extended cone excursion for additional bass output and higher SPL, and couples the suspension into a conjoined linear-motion body.

High-Temp Polyimide Film Voice Coil Former
improves sonic and conductive properties, and prevents thermal-electrical meltdown.

PEN Dome Tweeter with Neodymium Magnet
Provides a smooth high frequency response with quick, detailed and spatially-correct imaging. PEN is an acronym for the space age material "biaxially oriented polypropylene naphthalate film"--your parents' tax dollars probably paid for its development, you might as well enjoy it.

High-Power Tinsel Lead Wires
These eliminate broken leads and power loss, due to the common use of "insufficient-gauge" lead wires.

Ferro-Fluid
Cooled tweeter voice-coil extends the high frequency transducer's life span.

I had a set of 4 installed in my 2002 power stroke and ran 200 watt amps to each set and I was very very pleased. Of course I have a 10 inch subwoofer running on a 600 watt amp excellent, sound with a Kenwood reciever. Very pleased over all.

Reviewer: ozark705,
As Dennis Green once ranted so eloquently, the Kicker DS680s are what I thought they were...a great speaker for the price. I installed these in my '03 Tacoma using the factory baffles/mounts with little difficulty. With only my head unit powering these speakers, I am impressed with their response and tone in regards to mid-bass and even sub 50hz notes. But if you expect these to compete with an 8" sub or even 6" woofers, then these are not the speakers for you (no 5x7/6x8/6x9 will substitute the effeciency and range of true woofer). With that said, I was looking for an upgrade from the factory paper cones on a budget and this fulfilled my expectations. Tweets sound good as well, not harsh in the slightest. I am sure with a little more juice from an amp, these would (like most speakers) sound even "better". However, if you are in the market for a great speaker on a limited budget, these do the trick.
GOOD

REPLACED TACOMA DOOR SPEAKERS, HUGE IMPROVEMENT. NOT AS GOOD AS UPPER BRANDS (INFINITY/BOSTON ACCUSTICS) BUT GOOD FOR THE PRICE.
