Why Choose Kicker 51KSS504 Component System?
Powerful, Clear, and Durable Car Speakers
These speakers offer high power handling, delivering impressive audio performance for your vehicle. Silk-dome tweeters provide smooth, detailed highs, while polypropylene woofers with durable rubber surrounds ensure long-lasting performance and enhanced bass response for a full, rich sound experience.
Slim Design with Customizable Sound
The thin-mount design allows for easy installation behind factory grilles, making these speakers ideal for tight spaces. With four tweeter mounting options, you can customize sound staging to achieve the perfect audio balance in your vehicle.
Flexible Installation with Added Protection
These speakers feature an articulating tweeter pod for versatile tweeter placement, allowing you to fine-tune your sound staging. A smaller crossover simplifies mounting in tight spaces, and the included grilles provide both protection and a sleek, finished look.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- • Why do my woofers have very little bass after installation?
Weak bass is usually caused by incorrect speaker polarity or poor door sealing. Make sure the woofers are wired correctly and mounted securely to minimize air leaks.
- • Can I mount the tweeters on my dashboard instead of the doors?
Yes. The included flush mounts, angle rings, and surface-mount pods give you several installation options for better sound staging.
- • Why do my tweeters sound too harsh?
Tweeters aimed directly at the listening position or excessive treble boost can make the highs sound aggressive. Lowering the treble settings or changing the tweeter angle usually improves the sound.
- • Why do my speakers distort when I turn the volume up?
Amplifier clipping or incorrect gain settings are common causes of distortion. Proper amplifier tuning helps deliver cleaner sound at higher volumes.
- • Do I need to use the included crossovers?
Yes. The passive crossovers send the correct frequencies to the woofers and tweeters for balanced sound and reliable operation.
- • Can these speakers work with my factory stereo?
Yes. They can be powered by most factory radios, although an aftermarket amplifier will provide greater output and improved sound quality.
- • Why does one tweeter stop working from time to time?
A loose wire or crossover connection is the most common cause of intermittent sound. Check all terminals and secure the crossover to prevent vibration from loosening the connections.
- • What are the phase plugs on the woofers for?
Phase plugs help improve midrange performance while helping dissipate heat from the voice coil. They are built into the woofers and should not be removed.
- • Why do my doors rattle after installing the speakers?
The improved speaker output can cause loose door panels, clips, or wiring to vibrate. Tightening the hardware and adding sound-deadening material will usually reduce the rattling.
- • Can I install this component system without cutting my factory wiring?
Many vehicles allow installation with aftermarket wiring adapters that plug into the factory connectors. Some vehicles may still require minor wiring modifications depending on the factory audio system.

Crossovers are easy to install and they make the sound more detailed. The tweeters and woofers sounds great. Build quality is also top notch and not just the sound.
