kicker CVRs and RE

[netzero 10+ year member]

For around $160 which would be better at getting loud, two 12" CVRs off 1,200 watts or one 15" RE SE off 850 watts? Some say the kickers sound like poo, but iv got low end pioneer stuff, would the kickers sound better or worse? I plan on building a 2.5 per sub ported box tuned to low 30s. Thanks.

cvrs, I have always wanted to try but SEs I have always admired. everyone seems to love their SEs. Id' take the 15 if I wanted more SQ or the 2 cvrs for just louder.

Ya from what iv read that sounds like the two options, but how bad do the kickers really sound, compared to my cheap stuff? and will they take 600~ rms without burning for daily?

i think the kickers sound fine

Ok Just guessing they'll sound fine to me, but anyone know how much daily power they'll take? I've got 1,200 RMS at 1 ohm to work with.

Watch your gains.

If I give them 500 a piece, would they be alright for daily?

Coming from a CVR owner I would go with the RE

I am replacing my CVR with a 15 inch fi ssd

What didn't you like about it? I know the 15" SE will be nice, I just didnt know if more cone area and little more power would be better.

I dont know mine like rattles or something its weird, Maybe mine is just messed up.

Check out this guys q's

One of them with BP power could easily take 1200 watts. Id send him a pm if i were you.
