Product Information

Full details

The Kenwood KFC-X134 is a 5" 2-Way Coaxial Audio Speaker System designed for car owners seeking a significant audio upgrade. It offers a powerful 160W peak input power and a 130mm polypropylene diaphragm for enhanced bass response and clear sound, making it an excellent replacement for factory speakers. A potential caveat is that this is a single speaker pack, so multiple units may be needed for a full system.

FAQs

Are these speakers sold as a pair?

No, the Kenwood KFC-X134 is sold as a single speaker unit. You will need to purchase two for a stereo setup.

Do I need an amplifier for these speakers?

While they can work with a factory car stereo, an aftermarket head unit or a dedicated amplifier will provide better performance and allow the speakers to reach their full potential, especially their 160W peak power.

What is the mounting depth?

The mounting depth for the Kenwood KFC-X134 is 60mm (approximately 2.36 inches).

What tools are needed for installation?

Basic car audio installation tools are recommended, including screwdrivers, wire strippers/crimpers, and potentially trim removal tools. Screws and speed nuts are included with the speakers.

Can I install these in the front doors of my car?

Yes, as long as the front doors have a compatible 5-inch (130mm) speaker opening and the mounting depth (60mm) and hole diameter (120mm) fit. It is always recommended to check your vehicle's specifications.

What is the difference between Peak Power and Rated Power?

Peak Power (160W) is the maximum power the speaker can handle in short bursts, while Rated Power (40W) is the continuous power the speaker is designed to handle reliably over time.

Troubleshooting

No sound from speaker

Check speaker wire connections for polarity (+/-) and ensure they are securely attached. Verify the head unit or amplifier is functioning and outputting sound to that channel.

Distorted or crackling sound

Reduce the volume level. Ensure the speaker is not being over-powered; check if the amplifier's output exceeds the speaker's rated power (40W RMS). Confirm wiring is not loose or shorting.

Weak bass response

Ensure correct speaker wiring polarity. Consider adding a subwoofer or an amplifier with a dedicated bass boost feature if deeper bass is desired. Check if the speaker is properly sealed within the mounting location to prevent sound leakage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Delivers a significant upgrade in sound quality over factory speakers.
  • Offers good bass response for its size.
  • Includes necessary mounting hardware for easier installation.
  • Features a durable polypropylene cone and soft dome tweeter.
  • High peak power handling provides a dynamic sound.

Cons

  • Sold as a single unit, requiring purchase of multiple speakers for a stereo setup.
  • Requires an amplifier to reach full potential, not included.
  • Mounting hole diameter may require modification in some vehicles.
  • Frequency response starts relatively high at 76Hz, potentially missing very low bass notes without a subwoofer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: The Kenwood KFC-X134 speakers are designed to fit most vehicles with 5" (approx. 130mm) speaker openings. Always verify your car's speaker size and mounting depth (60mm) before purchase. They feature a standard 4-ohm impedance, compatible with most car audio systems.

Setup:

  1. Disconnect the vehicle's battery to prevent electrical shorts.
  2. Carefully remove the existing door or deck panel to access the old speaker.
  3. Unscrew and remove the old speaker.
  4. If needed, use the provided template or measure to ensure the new speaker fits the mounting hole diameter (120mm).
  5. Connect the speaker wires (positive to positive, negative to negative).
  6. Mount the KFC-X134 using the included screws and speed nuts.
  7. Reinstall the door or deck panel.
  8. Reconnect the battery.

Care:

  • Keep the speaker grilles clean. Dust can be removed with a soft brush or compressed air.
  • Avoid exposing the speakers to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures.
  • If the speakers become dirty, wipe them gently with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth. Do not use harsh cleaning chemicals.
