Kenwood KFC-1653MRW - 6-1/2" 2-way marine speakers (White)
Kenwood designed their marine speakers to bring power and precision to your boat's sound system. Designed specifically for marine use, Kenwood KFC-1653MRW 6-1/2" speakers feature water-resistant cone woofers and 1" balanced dome tweeters. Feed them up to 50 watts RMS (150 peak), and they'll sound great whether you're out on the water or relaxing at the marina.
Woofer
The woofers use water-resistant cones with Santoprene rubber surround.
Ready to rock the boat
Kenwoods are designed to shrug off the harmful effects of water, salt, and sun, too. With black UV-resistant grilles, composite speaker baskets, and stainless steel hardware, they'll give you outstanding performance for years to come.
Balanced Dome Tweeter
Each speaker features a 1.0" balanced dome PEI (Poly-Ether-Imide) tweeter; PEI is a polymer film that produces a wide soundstage for superior imaging.

The speakers fit and sound great with amazing bass. Unlike other coaxial speakers the the tweeter goes through the woofer it's separate allowing for better sound quality.

Replaced a set of Jensen 6.5’s that were at the end of their life after two yrs. These sound fantastic! Much cleaner sound with much better highs and excellent bass. I can’t imagine any 6.5’s that sound any better. Excellent value, they look great, and were simple to install. Highly recommended!

Pardon the pun, but i couldnt resist. I replaced some inexpensive "dual" brand speakers in by 21 foot center console. I use it in the saltwater in South Texas very regularly. Those speakers began to fall apart so their sound went from meh to done. These speakers were the same size so they fit the holes, i drilled pilot holes for the new screw locations and screwed them in. Standard. They sound way better than the other academy sports sourced ones did. Better lows and highs, for now. They are exposed to a lot of weather so its tough for anything to last forever. I think ill probably be replacing them every couple years due to that. They play both Jimmy Buffett and Clutch and sound great While i'm drift fishing the laguna madre. The grilles cover the speakers better than the older ones did, i wanted good speaker cone coverage to keep most of the sunlight off the material. Most speakers have minimal protection so they can show off the LEDs that are built in. I dont care about a light-speaker, i just want sound.

Suenan muy bien, procura instalar cableado de buena calidad para que no fallen. La bocina es de calidad, se ve y se escucha muy bien. Pienso comprar otro par.

I have eight (8) speakers this size in my motor yacht. The speakers are powered by an Alpine 50W, four (4) channel amplifier. Because the power from 4 channels must be shared with 8 speakers, the amp. is only pushing 25Watts to each speaker. Since these Kenwoods 50Watt speakers, I was worried that there wouldn't be enough power to let the Kenwoods sing. Fortunately, they are singing just fine. I haven't even tried anything near full volume; they're that loud and clear. Not only do these Kenwoods sound excellent, but they look great. They appear very rugged and durable.The only flaw is that the face plate must be aligned with the screw holes. This means that you cannot rotate the faceplate, independently from the screw holes. When using existing screw holes from prior speakers, the faceplate with the Kenwood name may be crooked. The solution is to drill new screw holes or live with a crooked faceplate. However, even that won't work if, like in my situation, the existing speaker wires that connect to the speaker are too short to run to the bottom of the Kenwood (where the two power terminals are located). The existing speaker wires barely made it out from the cutout. Hence, extending them by cutting and splicing additional wire would have meant a lot of extra disassembly to get to the wire from behind the bulkhead. As a result, I installed the speaker upside down. A rotating faceplate would have allowed me to rotate the faceplate so the Kenwood name was properly oriented. Nevertheless, these Kenwoods sound just as good upside down!

Perform great! Very nice speakers when paired with my Fusion RA-55. Cranks plenty loud when sitting on the water. Can't hear it a whole lot when going full throttle, but you rarely can with any boat setup. No amp hooked up in my Grady-White. Good range and nice lows - surprisingly full sound. Large magnet on the back, and a nice construction. I was thinking about dropping the extra money on the Fusion 6.5" speakers, but I am very satisfied with these for the money. Can't speak to how well they hold up when exposed to the elements yet.*Update - more than two years later*These speakers are still running strong. Beyond impressed with the sound and durability of these speakers for the price. They still sound great and have no issues after over two years of use. They get sprayed plenty when washing the boat and have been exposed to water plenty. I've noticed no deterioration nor any other issues yet. Can't recommend enough!
