Great sounding speaker. Super easy install, made all the better by the easy to follow instruction Crutchfield included. I would also agree with one of the other reviews that the tweeters are a bit harsh at first but seemed to have "broken in" after a few hours and sound great now.

The OEM speakers in my 1997 Mazda sounded good, but they started to deteriorate about three years ago (car is now 11½ years old). I first ordered Sony 6x8's, but they did not fit right (they were actually 6x7's, but were supposed to fit my car - they did not). Then I ordered Kenwood 6x8's, but they sounded horrible. I sent both sets of four back, and ordered four Infinity Kappa 6x8's.
Mine were the Kappa 682.7; the 682.9 is the newest version of these, but basicaally the same. They kick butt and sound great, and I only have 1 pair installed, driven by the head unit. Now I gotta install the other pair, and my Sony 4x30watt (rms) - 4x60watt(music power) amp. I can't imagine how great this setup will sound then!!!

Luvin' the SQ & Volume |

Installed into the stock front door locations in my '99 Ford F250 Crew Cab. They replaced a worn-out pair of Kicker K5.2 components, running off a Kicker IX405D 5-channel amplifier. After just installing one of the Infinity speakers, and playing a random song off the iPod (connected through a Sony xPlod GT61ui head unit), my wife comes out of the house, because, I quote, she could "hear every word clearly".
The sound quality is great, but the tweeters were a little bit too harsh at first. After about 6 hours of playing, they have mellowed out. The volume is fantastic. I bought these speakers with the intention of running them bridged off the Kicker amp. Now, I honestly don't think I need to (but I will anyways!)
Mounting was easy, they look great, and the only reason I didn't give them a 5 star rating was because of the lack of adjustment of the tweeter position. They turn a full 360°, but they are fixed at about 5° off-axis. So, get both speakers mounted in the doors, leave the door panels off, and try listening to them from different seating positions.
All in all, a great buy, and I would recommend these to anyone with a Ford truck.
