12" KICKER 07CVR12-4 COMP VR Aluminized Subwoofer 800 Watts 4 Ohm DVC

Kicker Car Audio Subwoofers

We at Sounds Great have been providing Kicker subwoofers to happy customers since 1998' on the web.  Through the years, Kicker has proven itself to be a leader in car audio. While we've seen many brands come and go through the years, Kicker continues to lead the pack in the area's of Subwoofers, Amplifiers and Speakers.

They were the first to release the innovative square subs several years ago and while many have attempted to copy them, Kicker Solo-Baric L7 and L3 model subs continue to be the most popular of their type on the market today. Regardless of your budget or available space in your vehicle, Kicker has you covered with their powerful CompVT shallow mount subs to their CompVX competition style, CompVR Aluminized, CompVR and traditional Comp series subwoofers.

Kicker has also pleased car audio enthusiasts with their well known QS and RS Series matched component systems. For the budget minded shopper, they provide the entire KS Series components and full range speakers.  But never let anyone think that with a lower price point comes a lower standard. Kicker speakers are top notch.

To power their speakers and subwoofers, Kicker amplifiers are available in all power ranges so you can easily match them to your speaker setup. We've had Kicker amps on the top of our favorites list for many years now and some things simply do not change with time.

Features

Dual Voice Coils: For increased system flexibility, the woofer has two 2 ohm voice coils. When the voice coils are wired in parallel, the woofer presents a 1 ohm load. When the voice coils are wired in series, the woofer presents an 4 ohm load. In addition, each coil may be connected to a different amplifier channel and each channel will see a 2 ohm load.

Cone Materials: The cone was developed using Kicker's SoloKon technology. The ultra high performance injection molded polypropylene cone remains rigid and minimizes cone flex, lowering harmonic distortion. Distortion in the cone is further reduced with new back bracing.

Surround: The optimized ribbed Santoprene surround allows extended cone excursion for additional bass output and higher SPL. The surround is double-stitched to the cone to add a mechanical fastener to the chemical adhesives. This prevents the cone and surround from separating in the harshest conditions.

Enhanced BAM (Basket And Motor) Assembly: The high-strength steel basket features a low-profile open design, and provides a solid foundation for the precision-aligned motor assembly. Perimeter venting in the BAM relieves pressure from under the spider, supports a linear excursion, and helps dissipate heat from the voice coil and motor structure.

UniPlate Construction: The woofer features a one-piece UniPlate construction with a vented hyper-extended pole piece and backplate. This unique design provides the following benefits:

• Optimizes heat transfer efficiency for cooler operation and maximum power handling ability
• Eliminates erratic magnetic flux from the voice coil gap
• Releases pressure under the suspension for uniform cone movement and responsive low bass
• Prevents the voice coil from bottoming out and corresponding damage

Tinsel Leads: The woofer features sleeved high-power tinsel lead wires to resist breakage and power-robbing resistance losses. The lead wires are terminated with polymer-based strain relieving mechanical fasteners.

Speaker Terminals: The spring loaded, nickel-plated terminals provide solid connections for speaker wire up to 8 gauge. Single banana plugs and pin connectors will also fit.

Break-in Period: Due to the complex nature of Kicker Comp VR speakers, they require a break-in period in order to produce optimum low-bass response. The high-performance suspension system makes the speaker very stiff out-of-the-box. Approximately 2 weeks of daily playing will allow the suspension to break-in and reach its optimum equilibrium. A broken-in subwoofer will exhibit stronger bass performance, smoother response, and greater low-bass extension.

Rubber Magnet Boot: A black rubber boot covers the outside edge of the magnet structure to improve the cosmetics of the woofer and protect the magnet during installation.

Marine Ready: This woofer is made with a powder coated, weather resistant basket and stainless steel hardware, so it can be used in marine and mobile applications.

Enclosure Compatibility

Power Handling: The power handling specifications differ according to the type and size of the enclosure. The power handling specifications assume that both voice coils are in use. Note: Both voice coils in a dual voice coil speaker should always be connected.
