Our take on the Kicker 12" 1000 Watt DVC 2-Ohm Car Audio Subwoofer

This is a 12-inch dual-voice-coil car subwoofer rated at 2 ohms per coil, with 500 watts RMS recommended power and a 1000-watt peak rating. Sensitivity is 86.9 dB, so it needs a real amplifier rather than head-unit power. The bundle adds a remote bass knob with a digital voltmeter and a 20-foot run of 16-gauge tinned OFC speaker wire. It suits shoppers building a single-sub bass setup who want a known brand and a wiring kit in one box; rivals at this level often match the power handling but skip the voltmeter knob.

Pros
  • Dual 2-ohm coils allow 1-ohm or 4-ohm final wiring
  • 500 watts RMS is a realistic match for mid-power mono amps
  • Remote knob adds gain control and a 10-15.9V voltmeter
  • 16-gauge tinned OFC wire included for the run to the amp
  • Kicker is widely stocked and serviced, so replacement is easy
Cons
  • 86.9 dB sensitivity is modest; it wants a strong amp
  • Peak 1000-watt figure is not a continuous rating
  • Needs a properly sized enclosure, which is not included
  • Voltmeter knob is a convenience, not a substitute for a good ground

About the Kicker 12" 1000 Watt DVC 2-Ohm Car Audio Subwoofer

This is a 12-inch (30 cm) dual voice coil subwoofer with a 2-ohm impedance. It is rated for 500 watts RMS recommended amplifier power and 1000 watts peak power, per ANSI/CTA-2031-A. Sensitivity is 86.9 dB at 1 watt, 1 meter.

The bass knob is an RCA line-level control with a volt-meter and a remote amp trigger. It adjusts the amplifier gain and turns the amp on and off with a rotary push-turn knob. It mounts in-dash or under-dash. A blue LED digital volt-meter reads from 10V to 15.9V and shows high-voltage and low-voltage conditions.

The knob works with most head unit and amplifier combinations. The included speaker wire is 20 feet of 16 gauge silver-tinned oxygen-free copper (OFC).

Questions and answers

What amplifier should I pair with it?
Aim for a mono amp that makes around 500 watts RMS at your final impedance, either 1 ohm or 4 ohms depending on how you wire the coils.
Can I wire it to 1 ohm?
Yes. Two 2-ohm coils in parallel give a 1-ohm load; in series they give 4 ohms. Check that your amp is stable at the load you choose.
Does it come with an enclosure?
No. It is the subwoofer, the remote bass knob and the speaker wire; you supply a sealed or ported box built for a 12-inch driver.
What does the remote knob do?
It adjusts amplifier gain from the dash and shows system voltage on a blue LED display, and it can trigger the amp on and off.
Is 1000 watts its continuous power?
No. 1000 watts is the peak figure; the recommended continuous (RMS) power is 500 watts.
