Sac NZ Posted September 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Hey thanks for all the info enveryone definitely food for thought. Firstly, I live in New Zealand and it is very hard to get some of these brands that you guys are talking about without having to pay twice the price just for postage and currency rates, that's pretty much the only reason kicker is appealing. Secondly I have a Ford Courier 1990 XLT so I'm trying to put the sub/s underneath the rear bench seat (going to have to cut it out and weld a frame in there first), this is why the CVT12's were an option because of the shallow mounting. To be honest I just want some solid bass that is definitely noticeable, and i do know that the box used is a big part in that as well. So do you guys reckon kicker subs can pull that off or am I wasting my time with them? Cheers everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers everyone kickers are by no means bad subs. if you can get kickers for a good price where your from then diffidently get them. the only reason most people talk bad about kickers is everyone else does and they are not worth how much you have to pay for them ( well here in the states atleast you can get better subs for a better price) but if you go with kicker you wont be disappointed.

kam311 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 If your gunna do the kickers I'd definately go with the l7, but not 12" for your airspace, probably 10" instead. The cvt will make bass, but not at an enjoyable frequency, at least from the few set ups with cvt's that I have seen. They are shallow subs so they can't escort very much. And the reason people talk bad about kicker is not just because everyone else does. It has a lot to do with the quality of subs, bad sound quality, expensive. But I think more than anything it's all the annoying ass noobies that run kicker and think they are the loudest people on earth. Lol Quote so far...

Lol Haha yeh man I definitely know what you mean with all the guys that just got kicker thinking they're all that. But cheers for all the help aye I'll have a look into the 10" L7's if I can't get around 2.5ft^3. Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
