Simplicity but power!

We bought this because of the simplicity, brand and performance! Don't disappoint, the sound is amazing. You can use a USB stick and read music files directly from it. We also have bluetooth connected to our phones, the radio is amazing. I have nothing negative to report. All is well!

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are flaws

Sounds terrible without amp

Looks great but sounds terrible. Should never have replaced my old Alpine with 18 RMS speakers. The kicker unit says 200W total with 4 speakers but when I called tech support after installation the tech told me he was only getting 12.4 RMS for each speaker. I picked this unit so I wouldn't have to add an amp, but I did need to add a Kenwood 400 watt amp to make it sound good.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • will be added later

TOTAL WASTE

TOTAL WASTE. Installed and works fine for about a day. Pulled the boat out the next day and already had issues with the head unit not staying connected to the speakers. Constantly turning it on and off and the volume knob is already broken. There is already water under the umbrella, although it sits under a cover 24/7 and has never sat in the rain. I definitely would have expected a better product from a big company like Kicker…. Very disappointed

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Difficult to say

Don't forget to turn on the car before completing the installation!

So I've been a foosball fan with their speakers and amps for a long time. I used this on a sand rail project. Everything was well connected and working until I started the engine. Then I couldn't hear anything from the speakers. I double checked my wiring and even connected it directly to the battery. It worked great even with the engine off, but once the engine started I couldn't hear anything. It took me a few days to find out that my GPS speedometer was interfering with this. Strange but it…

  • Great for me

Excellent radio with rotary volume control

This is a very good, no frills marine radio with rotary volume control and a simple and efficient control scheme. Bluetooth pairing is easy and works well. The only thing I would like better is the manual radio tuning. You have to use the track forward/backward buttons to adjust, but it would be nice if you could use the volume slider for quick tuning instead. That's how it works with the preset station scan, as you can turn the dial to quickly jump to a preset, so I'd suggest just adding all…

  • Dope

Terrible FM reception

I bought this to install in an RV. It does what I need it to do and the sound quality seems good enough, but I've had some issues with it. It likes to turn on randomly without command. First time after installing it at the campsite it came on several times in the middle of the night waking everyone up. I emailed Kicker customer support and they responded quickly, but they only advised me to put a power switch on the power line to cut power to the device so it wouldn't turn itself on. If the…
