Kicker is decent equipment. They will take some clean power but alot of hate comes from people not setting gains properly and blowing them. They're pretty tough too. I've seen people run them for years distorted on a 300 watt amp maxed out. Can't complain about them as a budget sub.

😂🤣😂🤣 Kicker budget sub🤔 kicker is one of the more expensive brands they are outrageously priced compared to most other companies subs when comparing RMS ratings. however if you want to talk about reliable and taking double RMS ratings than expected then I would buy Kicker. Comp and Comp C are ok but if you actually buy a Solo-Baric or a comp r and hook them up to true power you will see that they can do almost double the RMS ratings. My Solo Baric L7 10 is rated for 600 RMS..... I have it hooked up to a Sound Digital Evo 1200.1 and that sub can take ALL that amp has to offer. Got a pair of comp rs in the matching box hooked up to a cxa 1200 that's been going over 4 years now and they're only rated at a 1000 Watts RMS. Kicker is most definitely underrated IMO. Literally in the comp c video you just posted you ran 4,000 watts almost to a 300 watt RMS 12 that's pretty impressive and I guarantee you it's still played after

Its cool that he is doing this because most of the time when you try to compare them there are videos of them but they are setup on different amps and boxes so some may beat harder than others but he is using the same box and setup to get a true comparison. Keep up the good work love your videos

Comp C comes in both dvc & svc options . Tuning recommendations for Comps are 39hz to 42hz for ported enclosures @ 1.75 to 2.25 cu.ft. I have a CompC in a custom made ported enclosure with a flared port , 2.25 cu.ft @ 39HZ . It sounds exceptional good for its price segment.

I have 2 of the Comp C 10s SVC in my 350Z. They sound great, especially being as it’s a hatch roadster so the acoustics of the bass resonate well in the space. Most the Kicker products are well made, perform great & will last a long time when you have everything set up correctly with your amp & controls/settings. Can’t really go wrong especially being as affordable as they are

Parker when you test the CompR can you install it into the custom enclosure you have with the aeroport? Possibly test it back to back with that prefab, so people can see what’s the best approach as far as an enclosure goes. These Kickers would probably benefit from that nicer enclosure, give them a chance in that too!

According to sources I might be stuck with the standard Comp series which sucks but it’ll hold me off until I save up to see about dual 12” Comp R’s or something even better than that

Love what you do Parker.....But lol, almost a half a cube under spec on the box, that's a pretty big difference at 2cu ft. Also that Skar box might be tuned at 34hz with a SDR12 (which I loved the way my Skar SDR18-D4'S sounded) I bet it's not tuned at 34hz with the Kicker subs. Unless the T/S parameters are exactly the same for each sub the box tuning is going to very different. You can not tell what a box is tuned to without calculating the subs T/S parameters to the box volume and port dimensions.
