No Customer Left Behind

Super-sturdy, super powerful, and priced to please, the KFC-W3011 and KFC-W2511 are a real deal for woofers. The KFC-W2511 is a 10-inch woofer rated at 1000W peak; the KFC-W3011 is a 12-inch sub that can handle 1200W peak input power. These high performance subs feature a single 4-ohm voice coil, titanium coated woofer, and super linear spider. A long stroke design thumps out the low frequency and the silver-plate finish looks very clean installed. The titanium coated polypropylene cone gives it a nice brushed aluminum look, while a high-roll rubber surround design adds rigidity to the cone’s top edge and provides a large contact area so the cone/surround stays together, even when bass crazy cus- tomers get greedy.

Oh, it’ll fit. Slip the KSC-SW10 compact sub underneath the seat and shake things up with 150 Watts of power.

The KSC-WD250 10-inch powered subwoofer works perfectly with a highly efficient 200 Watt Class D amplifier. The KSC-WD250T is a 10-inch powered subwoofer with a dual voice coil, bass reflex enclosure, and a Class D amplifier circuit. This sub is similar to the KSC-WD250 but has a smaller enclosure, which makes it ideal for trucks, hatchbacks and any other places where space is a premium.

Don’t forget to give your subwoofers plenty of power. Make sure to use a good subwoofer amplifier and large gauge power and ground cables. Subwoofer amplifiers draw a lot of current, so you might want to look at very efficient Class D type amplifiers like the Ken- wood KAC-9104D or KAC-X10D.

Rated at 300/250 Watts RMS, 1200/1000 peak, the KFC-W3011 and KFC-W2511 offer clean, loud and powerful bass.

Other features include a reversible trim ring that lets you pull off the front and mount it on the back, depending if you’re mounting cone out or bas- ket out. Push terminals on the back will take up to an 8-gauge wire, and these subs are easier on installers because they can simply push and release the speaker terminals.

A little bling on back! The silver-plated push terminals on the KFC-W3011 and KFC- W2511 will take up to an 8-gauge wire.

eXcelon Speakers—An Ear’s Best Friend

Two new component speakers make it to the eXcelon line: the XR-S17P slim package and the KFC-X1720P. With peak power at 270 Watts, the eX- celon KFC-X1720P component speaker system includes high-end features like a cast aluminum basket and crossovers with Zobel networks. What’s so great about Zobel networks? We love ‘em because they keep ohm imped- ance constant. This means the amplifier never sees an ohm load fluctuation and allows the amp to run cooler and with less distortion. In addition, this year’s package requires less mounting depth than last year and it’s a direct fit on Ford, GM, and Honda.

The KFC-X1720P, S17P and the KFC-P series incorporate a new component tweeter installation that offers a lot of flexibility. Three types of tweeter mounting are available: flush mount, surface mount and factory location. A swivel function is also available in flush mounting.

Happy Little Thumpers

The KSC-WD250, KSC-W250T and KSC-SW10 compact subs are a quick and easy way to add bass to just about any system. Our new KSC-SW10 5 x 7” compact powered subwoofer includes a 5 x7” dual voice coil Woofer, 5 x 7” passive radiator woofer, speaker level input and a remote control.
