A Kicker Christmas

Mark from Rowlett, TX on 1/16/2024

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Bought these as Christmas gift for my grandson. Boy was he surprised, and anxious for me to help him install them as replacements in his car in a pre-existing Kicker cabinet in the trunk. We both love the sound, especially the punch and clarity of the bass that is so clean. I have never gone wrong with Crutchfield, as I have been doing business with them for years. Customer service is always very helpful and this time was no different; my advisor was spot on with these replacements recommendation.

Pros: High quality, well-made, excellent wiring accommodations for multiple wiring options.

Cons: Included wiring diagram was not real clear, but reference to Kicker website proved very useful.

Mounting issues

William from New Orleans, LA on 12/26/2023

2009 Lincoln MKS

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

While this 10" subwoofer seems to be performing as expected, it is not an appropriate speaker to replace the factory-installed 10" subwoofer in my 2009 Lincoln MKS. The mounting ring and bolt circle diameter are too small to be mounted properly in this car. Also, the Kicker speaker did not come with any adapter rings to compensate for the small ring diameter. I managed to jury-rig the installation, so it is working. The Crutchfield instructions said that drilling new holes for mounting this speaker would be required, however, the bolt-circle for this speaker isn't large enough to be able to drill holes in the steel deck -- the drill bit slips into the speaker opening -- the diameter of the bolt-circle in the mounting ring needs to be larger to fit this car's rear deck.

Great sound

Haven't fine tuned it yet at the Amp and it still bumps while breaking it in, my other kicker has been through a lot and it's the same as it ever was, I'm sure this will be the same.

Pros: Great sound, my system can hit more freq. now

Cons: Should be broken in from the factory in my opinion but other than that no cons

My First Sub

This was my first sub that I've had installed in my car, I absolutely love it. It balances so well with my Kenwood speakers but also has power if you want to bump it. I'm a big music head so I love the fact that it's not really overkill.

So far so good. Have only played it for about 10 hours so may need some more break-in time. Otherwise sounds good in a custom .75sqft box in the back of a Jeep JKU.

Pounding base at a tenth the price.

Phillip from Avondale, AZ on 8/21/2022

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

I had a top of the line Infinity 10" woofer that died a hard pounding death. It would be about $1000 to replace. Got this Kicker because the price and ohms were right. And omg it hits even harder than the infinity, crystal clear at that, which it shouldn't even be on the same level. I don't think you can buy a better speaker for the money. Powered by a Polk Audio amp, 500 watts at 4 ohms. Dual voice coils of the woofer are wired in series. Mounted in a small sealed box.

Pros: (1) Great quality and exceptional sound. (2) The price (3) Sounds great in a sealed box

Cons: None that I can tell.

New vents on the coils, i like

2015 GMC Yukon

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

happy to be the first to review this product as a loyal crutchfield customer. This sub is an absolute bargain for what you get. I traded in my JL 10W0V3 for this sub because my Kicker CXA.400.1 amp just simply could not power the JL well enough with the 150watts @ 4 ohms it has. it would of been a great sub if i had spent an extra $100 on an amp strong enough to power it. But my budget wont allow it so ill stick with what i have now and be happy with it. Sound Quality: Im running this sub at 500w @ 1 ohm. The kicker amp certificate that came with the amp said its good for 520 watts so we'll go with that. The sound is Tight, and full because im giving it plenty of power, and hits (almost) just as low as the JL sub. I would say the sound quality is just not as nice as the JL but that probably has to do with it being ran at 1 ohm. The full sound makes up for that and im still very happy with it. I think my amp is strong enough to run this same sub at 2 ohms and get slightly better sound quality but oh well. Who knows if it would help. Im okay with keeping the 1 ohm sub for now, for when i want to rage. If you are buying the same amp and sub pair i have; i would recommend getting the DVC 4 ohm and run it at 300 watts if you want a little more SQL. The 1 ohm difference is only noticeable if youre an audiophile like myself.

Pros: My $130 amp can power it sufficiently.

Cons: 1 ohm doesnt hit as clean as 2 ohm and 4 ohm subs. but you can barely notice, or not notice at all.
