advantages like the carbon polypropylene hybrid. These speakers share
the same cast aluminum baskets as component speakers, with shallow
mounting depth that allows for easy fit into import vehicles.

Notice the tweeter on the KFC-X1710
is suspended in mid air with the bridge
support. The dust cap on the midrange
driver is a cloth material and is used
to tune the midrange driver for best
sound quality.
The KFC-X1720P and KFC-X1710 use 2 Ohm
drive and serve up 220/270 Watts of power
handling. The 2-ohm drive will maximize
the power from external amps.
2-Ohm Drive

speakers. The 2-ohm design will give you more headroom, more dy-
namics, and a lot more “loud.” Both models are a great solution for
replacing factory speakers, and they make good factory replacement
speakers in OEM systems where the speakers are 2 ohm. We strong-
ly recommend using external amps on these speakers because a 50
X 4 chip’s not going to cut it.
