5 Stars
Wonderful product!!!
Great power! Easy to install because of its size. I purchased a 500 watt RMS Kicker and it was a perfect match. I highly recommend the combination. If you have a truck and want a shallow sized Kicker, those speakers are called “Kicker RT”. They fit a lot better than the regular “Kicker Comp R” editions. The “Kicker RT” speakers are almost double the price but they are worth every penny.
