[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8661048, member: 614752"] The raw sub comes in 2 or 4 ohm, the loaded enclosures are ALL 2 ohm. That is a rather old Kicker box and by the description they can't even figure out if it's a 10" or 12" sub (they say both). I wouldn't read too much into that. Consider also almost all their amps have been 2 ohm stable for ages now (particularly the 500-600W range that they likely try to pitch to power that). Best Buy claims 2 ohm load on that model number as well. OK, so show me one that looks like OP's pic that isn't 2 ohm. Ideally on the Kicker website. In fact you'll find if you download 2013, 2015, and 2016 manuals for CompR line they ONLY come in 2 or 4 ohm and I'd imagine the 4 ohm one is what they load into the 2 sub loaded box to get the 2 ohm final load (that all their loaded boxes have because that's the impedance their amps are designed to output to). Kicker has made all kinds of things but CompR line is relatively new and has only a few options. [/QUOTE]
