Loaded subwoofer systems?

[97srad750 10+ year member]

Anyone heard any of the factory type loaded subwoofer setups? Specifically I'm looking at Kicker's Comp or Comp VR 2 12" ported or the MTX sledghammer 3 10" box. I know several companies make these type of systems.

just buy the CVRs separate and make a ported box to specs you will be happier.

they aren't really good. the kicker ones are good and loud.

I want something that's plug and play. Honestly all I listen now really is sports talk, so even one 8" is overkill. I like to have something there though in case I want to bump a little.

pic a sub and have someone on here build you a box. Most of those loaded boxes are tuned pretty high too

Kicker makes decent loaded boxes...

if you want 8" or smaller, i have a JL 6w0 for sale that would probably suit your needs. I can build a small box and ship it to you for a flat rate, lmk if your interested by PM. (Its just sitting around, any reasonable offer i'll probably take) its BRAND NEW.

I know the rep on MA audio so I have a guess on what you guys would think about this, but I'll ask anyway. http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=16944

I figured that would be the answer

you're gonna pay too much for the bass you get, as is the case with most pre-loaded systems, but the infinity basslink actually sounds pretty good. not overly loud, but it fills in the bass ok.

yeah. stay away from that MA enclosure. sounds like crap. gets pretty loud, but any sub will in an enclosure tuned to 50hz.

i'd go with the kicker out of those 2. should sound ok if that enclosure is tuned to 38
