    Just a suggestion for future sound testing, put them in an enclosure at least because they will sound better and different when installed in a door. Speakers use what they are installed in to produce a fuller and louder sound :). It’l sound closer to what it should sound like so you can make a better comparison

    I've owned those kicker ks series in coax and components they take an absolute flogging, I crossed them at 80hz because I was running a sub but in my honest opinion they are better than the Alpine at least having owned both exact models. I was also surprised that Alpine didn't beat them they sound nice but the kicker has better power rating and it took every 150 watt beat down I through at them with my JL audio hd 600/4
    Edit. also owned the type r coax of the same Alpines only real difference was a neodymium magnate at face value.

    I love the side by side tests you do! I have JBL GX602's from my old college car that I decided to put into my 22-Sierra SLT 6.2L non-bose, and made an immediate improvement over factory. I mentioned I have the 6.2L because they come factory with cabin sound proofing. The 6.5's sounded so good, I decided to install a couple underseat subs with a cheap ~300w mono amp, and WOW my ~$200 dollar system sounds much better than the factory BOSE. the JBL tweeters unamplified are keeping up with the 300w subs! BTW the JBL GX602s were the GX628 predecessor with the same tweeter that can be rotated/aimed toward the listener. Can any of the other speaker tweeters be manipulated?

    With a SWS- 10D2 Sub and it's loud!
    Kickers are louder , but only for a short period of time.
    That extra money money goes towards consistency and Alpines definitely hold the bar higher in the 23k Hz and above! No comparison on sound clarity
    Alpines are very sensitive so it's all about how you like your music.
    I like a more natural sound so the 2Ω 10 is perfect.
    In my opinion, Kickers are loud and Smooth, Alpines are Punchy and Consistent.
    Kenwoods (in my first car) are great all around but will never hit those high or low marks.

    Do a video for sound quality, with less bass. Most of us run subwoofers for the bass so we tune our radio without bass on the normal speakers to get a good clean sound without distortion, and let the subs handle the bass. So, make one for sound quality with less bass and mostly highs.

    I’m reading these comments about testing them in a speaker box.. I support both the viewers and mike because #1... remember in a real vehicle application, 6.5” Woofers don’t go in a sealed or ported box, it’s a door which is essentially an “Infinite baffle” Soooo it’s kinda ok-ish to do a hand held demonstration (BUT) MIKE 🙏 please make a loooong speaker box that holds about 6 speakers with dividers in the box for individual chambers and a push button for each speaker so we can hear consistent real time competitions and also get to hear them all in a box and out of a box.

If you want mid range bass in car setup go with 6 x9 or 7x10. Speaker style. Also when doing your review bro say this kenwood say model when changing over to show the viewers it be better way of doing the review. Keep up the good work

      True, although for purposes of a video if you test all of them in the exact same environment, with the same music one after the other, then your ear can determine a preference and allow you to rank the best from top to bottom.

    • @Jeffdachefz
      @Jeffdachefz Рік тому +1

      no, all car speakers should be designed for infinite baffle aka your car door which is anything but a speaker enclosure unless you do extensive deadening, mass loaded vinyl and recreating factory seals ETC... and even then its just a large leaky sealed box at best. It would still be disingenuous for him to test it in a box because 99% of people will be using these speakers for replacement in the doors or rear deck. Only people who would benefit from a sealed enclosure test would be people who build Bluetooth speakers. Just clearing up some misconceptions here.

    the best performers here were the ones with an inductor on the woofer. these are also the only ones even approaching a "real" crossover. this limits high frequencies to the woofers. all of these 6.5 inch woofers suffer cone breakup before their natural rolloff point, making them all sound muddy especially at high volume when run full range. this video should demonstrate the importance of crossovers and the downside to running most woofers full range.
