Just wondering what you opinions are on Rockford Fosgate Punch vs. Kicker CVR subs. Dont have a lot of money to spend on expensive subs. Thanks!

I dunno. Im getting a ******** stealth box and they sell kickers. Everyone around here is always talking about the Punch speakers so I dunno what to get. Im not looking to blow out the windows, just a good sound unless a buddy wants me to turn it up, then I want it to hit.

Buy the Rockford's.

There are some good performing affordable subs out there..diamond, orion, mtx, polk audio, etc

Nachos!! · 01-22-2010, 09:51 PM

I know there are a lot of good subs out there that are affordable, I just dont know what im looking for/at. I see single coil 4ohm, dual coil 4ohm, etc. Im just not sure what is better than what for the money? Thanks again everyone for your help. It is greatly appreciated.

well hey my buddy has an older set of the fosgate comp 10" subs with an amp up for sale. let me know if you are interested.

also they are older i mean 2006 or 07 model but he never really used them. it was to much power for his alternator and kept blowing fuses so he just left them in the car for looks. so they are still good practically brand new. pm me and we can talk prices. will work with you on the price just let me know your range and i will talk to him.

I am going to go with a single 12 for now and I already have a amp. Thanks for the help though.

JBL audio W7 blows em both away

jeffny09 · 01-22-2010, 11:38 PM

jbl is top of the line but rockford is great too

FIREWOLFF · 01-23-2010, 07:55 AM

I'd stay away from both Rockford and Kicker neither make product like they used to. Go to a reputable shop and listen to it before you buy it. Only you know how it should sound for you.

FIREWOLFF · 01-23-2010, 07:59 AM

Check out THE AUDIO EDGE in Bossier( don't know if I spelled it right)

Lightson357 · 01-23-2010, 08:19 AM

I was using th Kicker comp CVR I bought them from crutchfield, they we running a buy one get one free. So you should check them out. The CVR's were nice but as the saying goes you get what you pay for. The hit but not as quite as hard as other subs out there. So the price point is good for a starter sub, you can get some older model new JL audio, JBL's for around the same price. So look online.
