My electronics savvy source says you may be overdriving the amplifier in your Kenwood stereo to an impedance-mismatched set of speakers, meaning that the speakers are impedance mis-matched to the Kenwood stereo, and therefore operate ok (but inefficiently) at low volume, but cut off completely at higher volume. Fix: match the impedance of your speaker network to the specs on your Kenwood car stereo. Once this is done, you should be able to crank up the volume to the point of permanent hearing loss. SAFETY CAUTION - sound levels above 85 decibels produce NIHL (noise-induced hearing loss). http://www.dangerousdecibels.org/education/information-center/faq/
Did you google for the specs? Gotta be there. Meanwhile the amp will drive your speakers - the issue is if the amp has enough power to drive the speakers to the volume level you want without distortion. Whatever you decide be careful with speaker wiring and do not hook them up in parallel lest you want to toast your amp stages to a crisp.
Page 7 of the manual gives you all the different configurations of this amp, and it's MAX power. FYI; Kenwood rates their amps at MAX power, not clean. Hope this helps.
Can't help you on the manual, but basic specs for both drivers are listed on crutchfield.com web site.
Easy way to do it is ; type in KFC-W2505 and the KFC-W2509 in your search engine and click on the Crutchfield web site. This will give the overall cubic dimensions of the cabinet, plus other info. Hope this helps...
