    I had some sick kicker free air setups back in the 90s, dual 12s really rocked. Built into the rear seat back using the whole trunk as a box.. I can't believe you've got a 1000 watts in your hand there. I've been out of the scene for almost 2 decades. I still have my old free air subs from 1994, and I liked the us acoustics amps in the early 2000s, still have them. Thinking about finally reinstalling a system into my current car.

    I have the 10 inch version on the back floor of my 2020 F150. Overall, I'd say this lineup is outstanding bang for the buck. I knew I'd eventually be doing an audio upgrade when I purchased my truck, but I wanted more than a "behind the back seat" subwoofer. For my needs, the 10 inch model was the way to go. I still have plenty of room for all my fishing gear, and should I need to fold the back seats down, there's plenty of clearance. That being said, you need to keep your expectations realistic. This is not a full on "shake the leaves off the trees" unit, nor is it the "best of the best" sounding sub on the market. Don't let that deter you from a potential purchase, though. This is not a cheaply made sub, and the sound quality is legit. Worth noting....these boxes are SOLID. Don't worry about throwing your groceries or your gym bag on top of this thing. You ain't damaging this box without intent. This is a perfect sub for someone who doesn't wanna break the bank on a custom enclosure with ridiculously high priced components. If you just wanna plug, play, have instant bass and enjoy, this is definitely a good option to consider.

    I have a 12 coming and am excited for it. It's gonna be my first aftermarket sub. But I got a rsx and intend to take shit around with me in it since it's a hatch back. This I think will be perfect. I was thinking of mounting it to the back of the seats so when they fold it would be almost right next to me. But not sure if it is doable. I don't think so tbh but I haven't held one yet.

    I have the KICKER TRPT122 Dual 12" down-firing subwoofer in my audi q5. Its a good REPLACEMENT for the factory sub only. A little more than the factory sub. I had mined modified by adding 1inch more in height to the legs, because it sounded like the speakers were hitting the floor. It did help a little. Your not going to shake the cars next too you. But what i can say that the box is very sturdy, dont worry about damaging it. I have d block 500watt amp on it. So remeber, Its a REPLACEMENT sub from the little sub in the trunk of a audi q5.

    I got the exact same one for my Escalade ESV and it sounded like total crap even with a 400wrms Class D amp. I honestly think that vehicle is too big for something that small in the trunk. I tried everything, no go. Then I decided to try the wife's cheapo Planet Audio 12 inch which is in a regular sealed box from ebay, lo and behold I got instant loud bass with excellent response down to about 25Hz! I'm guessing vehicle acoustics is the key but it's trial and error I guess which can get costly... I just hate the fact of having box to move around...

    Always wanted to try one of the radiators. Back in the day i did something similar. I had a 15 in pro studio woof in a molded plastic box with a 3 in round port. I popped it out an put a cheap white Westinghouse 4 woofer in the ports place. It was kimda cool because that tiny 4 in was making the 15 in cone flex an rattling crap!

By no means will it rattle the neighbors but inside the cab it is more than enough to add some defined lows.

    That's one of those situations where screwing the box down greatly increases the output since the woofer is firing against a solid surface. Also, not sure if you opened the pass through to the trunk, but that would likely improve the bass in the car.

    Big D... luv the Bob Ross air freshener... need a Richard Simmons one, lol! I have a 10" Kicker CVT sub I'm installing (need the 10" passive radiator, coming soon). The sub was a 'pre-owned' eBay purchase but it operates just fine, always a gamble on used components of course but with S/H included, got it for just under $40 so well worth the risk, IMO... it's one of the grey cones, miss that series back in the day. I don't recall you explaining why the enclosure works so well... what the passive radiator does. The Kicker passive radiators are NOT adjustable (if you don't know what that means, my friends, then you are respectfully not well experienced using passive radiators). The passive radiator in the box tunes the box and makes it play "much larger" than the size of the box but internal air space being CRITICAL to the sub operating at peak efficiency. Power (RMS of course) is less in handling than if you just had the sub in a sealed box... use the rated power (400 watts of CLEAN power for my 10") where I could go to 450-500 watts in a sealed enclosure (no passive radiator). MY particular set-up will be in a space (building a custom enclosure where the 'factory sub would go if I had one) in the rear corner of my 2006 Saturn Vue... will be upgrading to a thin line 12" L7 later in a sealed enclosure in the same locations (rated 600 watts RMS, will be pushing 700 though but of course, the RMS rating is at high volume, much less power at lower volume, etc.) Since I'll be using the interior quarter panel to fabricate my (fiberglass/wood) enclosure, I could potentially swap out the enclosures if I wanted to but the fun is in the design & fabrication, doing different set-ups with different components. You all know what I'm saying (no, I'm not 'Butters'). I want to conserve my cargo space and not trying to set any SPL records... daily driver. Besides, doing a 4-way system with the 6.75" Kicker RTs in the doors for mid-bass so it will be low/loud enough. I do love some DJ Magic Mike, Bass Boy, Quad City DJs, etc... 90's for the young ones out there. I listen to a lot of EDM, Yanni, Sarah Brightman, classic vocal jazz, etc. so SQ is top priority but sometimes you have to "let the bass drop". I'm going to be running the Jensen XDA series of amps for a while (they have an updated line out now, just cosmetically different... STILL NO BASS KNOB but the NVX bass restoration unit is under $90 on eBay now, the Epicenter is going off at @$140, not too shabby... although the in0dash 1/2 DIN unit with SPL meter/mic is still at $250). Knowing that I can always lower my crossover point with the four RTs down to 40-60Htz using the Jensen/Dual app on the fly is also a big bonus. To anyone who has read this far, kudos. I'm just chatting away... good day my friends and Happy Hump Dayyyy!

    nice product from KICKER... I was among the earliest dealer/installers in 1981 here in Hawaii at AA Sound Systems. I remember well them original Kicker boxes as we could barely keep em in stock. Great sound from a small package made for back of truck seat use. Only thing I can say is that Passive radiator systems in general tend to cancel themselves out at a certain level as the forward waves from the woofer become backward waves in the passive radiator. This effect increases with volume. Sorta like hooking up a set of woofers out of phase. Coupling issues. GREAT for the quick fix!!!... Nice package. GO Kicker!!!! Keeping Car Audio ALIVE!!!!
