Our tech experts advise

LED colour can be changed and synchronised using the optional Kicker KMLC controller, sold separately. Each speaker handles 65W RMS, so select an amplifier matched to that output.

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 45KM654L speakers light up?
A: Yes. The white and charcoal grilles include a seven-colour LED system, upgradable to 20 colours and 19 lighting modes with the KICKER KMLC controller.
Q: What is in the box with the 45KM654L?
A: Two 6.5 inch 4 ohm coaxials, 8 mounting screws, 8 mounting screw clips, 2 wire connection covers and 2 zip ties.
Q: What size hole do the 45KM654L speakers need?
A: A 128 mm (5-1/16 inch) mounting hole with 59.9 mm of mounting depth.
