Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Comp and CompR? CompR handles more power, plays deeper, and has a ribbed surround for durability. Worth the upgrade for most buyers.

Are Kicker's square L7 subs worth it? The square design gives 20% more cone area than comparable round subs. If maximum output is your goal, L7 is the way.

Can Kicker work with my factory radio? Yes. Kicker's KEY amplifier works specifically with factory systems—it processes the factory signal and adds power without replacing your radio.

How loud can Kicker get? Kicker subs regularly win SPL competitions. A properly installed L7 system can hit 140+ dB. For daily driving, we tune for quality, not just volume.
