About the Kicker 45KM654

From our tech experts at CEN

The Kicker 45KM654 is a pair of KM Series 6.5" (165mm) marine coaxial speakers, rated at 65W RMS with a 3/4" PEI dome tweeter and IP66 protection. Built with 316L stainless-steel hardware, UV-treated polypropylene cones and Santoprene surrounds, they meet ASTM standards for UV and salt fog exposure. White and charcoal grilles are included; this is the non-LED model.

Who it suits

These suit boat owners and marine audio enthusiasts needing weatherproof speakers for hull, deck or tower installations. At 90dB sensitivity, they work well from a modest amplifier. For a matching marine source unit, consider the Kicker 46KMC5 Marine Digital Media Receiver.

Our tech experts advise

The mounting hole is 128mm in diameter with a 59.9mm mounting depth — measure your location before ordering. These are 4-ohm speakers, so confirm your amplifier is 4-ohm stable. Mounting hardware and wire covers are included in the box. Fitting costs vary by vessel; contact us to arrange installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What makes marine speakers different from car speakers?

A: Marine speakers are built with UV-stable, water-resistant cones, grilles and hardware designed for open-air and wet environments. They are the right choice for boats, jet skis, hot tubs and outdoor installs.

Q: Are these speakers fully waterproof?

A: Marine speakers are water-resistant to marine ratings rather than submersible. The IP rating, where provided, is listed in the Specification tab.

Q: Do I need a marine amplifier as well?

A: For best results, yes. Marine amplifiers carry conformal-coated boards that resist moisture and salt air. Match the amplifier to the RMS rating in the Specification tab as you would with any system.

Q: Will these work outside of marine use?

A: Yes. Marine speakers are popular for motorcycles, quads, hot tubs, garden bars and anywhere the weather reaches. Their durability makes them a strong outdoor choice.

Q: Do the Kicker 45KM654 speakers come as a pair?

A: Yes. The box contains two 6.5 inch 4 ohm coaxials with 8 mounting screws, 8 screw clips, 2 wire connection covers and 2 zip ties.

Q: What size hole do the 45KM654 speakers need?

A: A 128 mm (5-1/16 inch) mounting hole with 59.9 mm of mounting depth.

Q: Do the 45KM654 speakers have LED lighting?

A: No. This is the non-LED version with white and charcoal grilles. The 45KM654L adds a seven-colour LED system.
