Infinity subwoofers have always distinguished themselves clearly from the competition. The Infinity SSI Kappa series subwoofers are no exception and fight on a playing field all their own. Right away the coated glass-fiber cone shows off an air of sophistication and style while offering incredible rigidity that minimizes distortion.
Once you get past the cultured exterior, the interior components uphold Infinities affinity for advanced technology. This Kappa sub utilizes a triple voice coil system which gives it the incredible ability to offer selectable impedance. Selectable Smart Impedance (SSI) technology allows this sub to run at 2 Ohms or 4 Ohms with the flick of a switch. This allows you to extract the most from your subwoofer amplifier in any situation. If you decide to add a subwoofer down the line, SSI makes it easy to reconfigure your entire system without buying different subwoofers or amplifiers.
The SSI Kappa subwoofers handle a remarkable amount of power and sound incredible in sealed or ported enclosures. If you want great sounding bass with unheard of wiring versatility, Infinity Kappa subs are technologically advanced enough to handle it.

I used a pair of the Infinity Kappa 120.9W's in a home, high-end audio system. I put them in 3 Cu. Ft. sealed boxes and placed one in each corner of the audio room. The Apogee Divas are closer to the listening chair, so the sub-woofers are behind them. The bass is awesome. I have heard many high-end subs and these are as good or better than some of the expensive high-end subs. With a db or two of boost at the low end, these subs go down nicely to 20 Hz.

I originally had an Infinity 1262w reference sub and the voice coil separated one day. Rather than trying to get a refund or warranty work I decided to get an upgrade and go with the Kappa. I now wish I had gone with the Kappa in the beginning! The sound is amazing. My box is sealed for clean tight bass and this sub delivers. I don't care for people to hear me coming a mile away but this sub is incredibly loud inside my car. To the point that people who listen to it generally have to plug their ears.
I am only putting about 300w into it but it can shake my entire car and still play cleanly without any boominess or muddy distorted sound. I don't always listen to music like rap or hip-hop, so when listening to classical music or country the bass is supremely clear and not overpowering. I couldn't ask for a better sub for the money!

I installed this sub in a BMW X5 to supplement the bass on the Hi-Fi system. Wow. This sub provides deep, clean and rich bass. Way more that my ears can stand. Bonus, it looks great.

In a Sonic Sub Box: 1H12-1.0 (Gray) with dynamat on the inside to get closer to the 1.0 cubic feet spec. Drilled through the connector plate and ran monster cable 10-gauage speaker wire straight from the amp to sub.
Powered by Infinity Kappa Five (300-600W on the mono sub channel),
running 4 gauge and the BOSS cap-20.
Can make 2002 Monte Carlo SS rearview mirror fall off. I think I had it set at 320LP with the db gain set somewhere between 60 and 80hz (I think). A 160LP might be what its on now, I was having a problem with my amp cuttin out, so I reduced the high frequencies from the deck too and the system can run at max volume now. The 400hz max range was kinda much to believe anyway (from speaker or amp@320).
Once I get the candy amp rack made I think I'll pick up Infinity's other sub amp and give this thing the power it wants.
Great deal for the price, lets you get the extended warranty option. Decent look and VERY durable, but won't look pretty after it shows you it is durable (the shimmer wears off).

Had 2 in 2 sealed 1.2cf boxes they sounded good about 4 months and they tore all the way around. The fiberglass cone has a rough edge where it is glued to the rubber surround and cut the rubber. I tried to glue them but never sounded right. It's too bad they just didn't smooth the edge of the cone before gluing. I exchanged them for power caustic mofo that don't sound as good but much stronger. Do not use stated power cut in 1/2 for vented box keep ur warranty and packaging.
