    Anyone have Kicker cockpit speakers in their boat?

    I'm shopping for new in boat speakers, and wondered if anyone has these:

    Kicker 11KM6200


    6" marine speakers
    water- and UV-resistant polypropylene woofer with rubber surround
    3/4" titanium dome tweeter mounted in integrated grille
    sealed motor and cone with locking terminal covers
    frequency response: 35-21,000 Hz
    power range: 2-65 watts RMS (195 watts peak power)
    sensitivity: 90 dB
    top mount depth: 2-7/8"

    Just doing a little shopping now, need to replace some trashed polks, any other suggestions? I'm powering them with a fusion 5 channel amp, 4 channels going to the in boats, and 1 dedicated to the sub.

    80 Watts RMS x 4 + 250W RMS x 1


    Thanks for any suggestions!

    The Kicker KM6200 is a quality built marine coaxial speaker. It will respond nicely to the 80W rms power it would receive from your amp. Like any speaker, if possible, get an audition with it. Sound quality is so subjective, so its really up to your ears to decide what sounds go to you.

          I considered the JL's, but the discounted price on the Exiles made the choice much easier. It came down to the Polk MM651 UM, Exiles and Wetsounds ws65, and in the end price was the determining factor. I also have a set of exile sxt65 surf speakers that I picked up last winter and have not installed....still on the fence if I'm going to install them, or leave my tower naked. Its a ski boat in the mornings, and a family fun boat/tie up with friends the rest of the day..

                Installed the exiles, and they sound really well. Just need to decide what/where to do about a sub.
