    12" Kicker CVX different box or upgrade sub

    Awesome! Just what I needed. I know I could build it, just had no clue on how to design one. I figured my box is the main problem here. The sub seems like it wants to hit but the box just won't let it. I know this subs not the best but I know it's not a total piece of **** either. I'm gonna try...

    12" Kicker CVX different box or upgrade sub

    Not sure on my alternator, never looked. But remember reading and I think 100 maybe? The Cummins alt is 135. A lot of Jeep guys upgrade to that alt for running their winches and lighting. Ok I'll dump the cap tomorrow. I'm pretty sure I won't be going any bigger then the amp I have now. This...

    12" Kicker CVX different box or upgrade sub

    12" Kicker CVX different box or upgrade sub

    12" Kicker CVX different box or upgrade sub

    I was just looking at those subs. Are they better then Sundown? I really don't want to buy a different sub but if I can't pull much more out of this CVX I think I'm gonna. Ill probably like a 15 better because I like the lows. Just that this CVX don't want to hit them. Could be box though. My...

    12" Kicker CVX different box or upgrade sub

    First post here (been reading a lot) and apparently I don't know as much about car audio as I thought I did. Anyway, I recently picked up a MTX 1000xd, 12" Kicker CVX, 2.0f capacitor, and all the wiring off craigslist for $150. Good deal? The sub is in a small ported box. Probably 1 cubic ft...
