Workhorse Woofer

The next step in world-class bass engineering is here with the CompR Subwoofer. CompR Subwoofers combine advanced components and superior technology for a workhorse bass-maker only KICKER could create. As the next generation of CompVR, KICKER's top-selling woofer of all time, the CompR Subwoofer continues its legacy of industry-leading performance with bass impact and innovation.

CompR takes flexibility to another level with a single pair of stout, push-button wire terminals featuring a convenient impedance-selector slider for easily changing the dual-voice-coil impedance (2/8 Ohms or 1/4 Ohms, depending upon model). No additional wiring is needed for switching between series or parallel configurations.

Besides convenience, CompR delivers the deepest musical bass and is made to work perfectly with KICKER KX-Series mono amplifiers. The motor structure itself is a mechanical marvel, utilizing a large-diameter, progressive-roll spider for increased linearity and better sound with high-strength Spiralead tinsel leads woven through for maximum transfer of signal. A KICKER standard, the one-piece UniPlate, features the vented pole piece and bumped back plate that's tapered toward the edge to improve the magnetic force within the gap, optimizing that magnetic energy. The "bump" provides added voice-coil clearance, assuring precise performance. High-temp coil wire winding around the pole piece and innovative Quad Venting slots contribute to the woofers' efficient cooling attributes and durability.

CompR features an injection-molded polypropylene cone and tough Santoprene surround for ultra-rigidity and minimal distortion. The full-coverage, steel basket provides full protection of the large spider and complete motor assembly. While the basket fully protects the inner workings, its mounting depth has been minimized further to easily fit into more installations.

good stuff

The following review is for a previous version (10CVR154).

I got 2 L7 subs and put them into a gmc xcab and it was stupid loud, i also got a spl 5.500 watt amp and the subs beat it to death. So get a very very good amp and it will knock the wax out of your ear.

Good Subs

The following review is for a previous version (10CVR154).

I would recommend this subwoofer to anyone who is looking for deep and clean bass. It doesnt take much to power which I like and it still slams pretty good for a kicker 15. Put it in a 3ft ported cubic box and you will be surprised.

Still the best sounding sub in kicker line up

The following review is for a previous version (10CVR154).

This sub is still one of the best sounding that kicker offers much so because of the size of it's cone area and the linearity of it's surround which is much control during excursion. This sub will play any low note down into the lower 20 hertz line.

Awesome Sub

This sub is amazing. I bought this subwoofer, the Belva BB3000D, the Belva BAK42 wiring kit, and a sealed 1.9 cubic foot enclosure. I put this in the back of my 2003 Sequoia and wired it to 2 ohms (so its getting the full 1200 watts rms) and it SLAMS. It honestly gets too loud sometimes. This sub, in a sealed box at least, is quite punchy for a 15 and never sounds sloppy unless you try to play really fast basslines at high volumes such as edm or something. It hits very very low notes and it reaches pretty high notes for a 15 as well. If you're looking for a sub to complement your sound system, this is definitely a go, though some people might also want to have a 12 or a 10 in their setup to accent the highest of bass notes. I recommend this sub highly.

MEH...

The following review is for a previous version (10CVR154).

Considering I got the sub and a slot ported box for just under 200.00 shipped, it is an ok setup. Would recommend at that price. Really do not believe this sub can hold up t 500watts RMS though. Decently clean sound if you're not pushing the sub too hard.
