About the Kicker Q-Class 42CWQ102

Bob Bihlmayer

L7 + round frame = CompQ

When Kicker introduced their L7™ series subwoofers, the combination of rugged materials, quality workmanship, and innovative design raised the bar for aftermarket subwoofer performance. Now Kicker has created the CompQ™ Series subwoofer, a speaker that puts the L7's awesome performance into a round basket that'll mount in a standard enclosure.

Features

Dual Voice Coils: For increased system flexibility, the woofer has two 2Ω voice coils. When the voice coils are wired in parallel, the woofer presents a 1Ω load; when wired in series, the woofer presents a 4Ω load.

Terminals: The spring post terminals will accept pin connectors, single banana plugs (but not dual), and bare wire up to 8 gauge.

Sealed Enclosure: A sealed enclosure design gives the smoothest response with increased energy at the lowest frequencies (between 20 and 30 Hz).

  • Minimum Volume: 0.66 ft³
  • Maximum Volume: 1.25 ft³

Vented Enclosure: A vented enclosure design increases efficiency relative to sealed enclosures.

  • Minimum Volume: 1.25 ft³ with a 2½" x 11¼" x 19¾" slot port
  • Maximum Volume: 2.25 ft³ with a 3" x 11¼" x 18" slot port

Customer Q&A

Q
Will a kicker 10 inch round grill work on this sub without the sub hitting against it?

Greetings James, and thanks for your question. Im going to say no. Unfortunately we do not attempt to use a grille that is not really intended for a speaker/subwoofer. Kicker does not offer a specific grille for this subwoofer. Perhaps Stillwater designs (Kicker) can shed a bit more light. Their number is 405-624-8583.

Q
What size is the voice coil? 2.5 inches? 3 inches?

I've looked at our information and the information including the manual for this series subwoofers on Kicker's site. I cannot find the diameter of the voice coils. You might try calling Kicker on 405-624-8583 to see if they can help get you that information. My Bio: http://www.crutchfield.com/Support/Bio.aspx?bio=101
