Our take on the KICKER 8" CompR Subwoofer 300W RMS 4 Ohm DVC

The Kicker CompR 8 is an eight-inch car subwoofer with a dual 4-ohm voice coil, rated at 300 watts RMS. Its polypropylene cone is joined to a back brace with SoloKon technology, which Kicker says cools the motor and cuts distortion, and Forced Air Cooling is claimed to run it 25% cooler. It works in a sealed or ported box and suits tight-space builds that need a small sub with real output. Against larger CompR models it gives up low-end depth, and against budget single-coil 8s it offers more wiring flexibility and power handling.

What reviewers say

Owners of the CompR line generally rate it as a solid value sub that hits hard for its size when given a good box and clean power. Some note that an 8-inch driver can only do so much on the lowest notes.

About the KICKER 8" CompR Subwoofer 300W RMS 4 Ohm DVC

The Kicker CompR 8-inch subwoofer has a 4-ohm dual voice coil (DVC) design. It is rated for 300 watts RMS and 600 watts peak.

The cone is polypropylene and is joined to an improved Santoprene surround with red double stitching. SoloKon technology joins the cone to the back brace, forming a single unit that cools the motor and reduces distortion. Forced Air Cooling helps the sub run 25% cooler than before.

It works best in a sealed or ported enclosure with 300 watts of recommended power.

Questions and answers

What amp power does the CompR 8 need?
Kicker rates it at 300 watts RMS. Pair it with an amp that delivers close to that at the impedance you wire the dual 4-ohm coils to.
Can I wire the dual 4-ohm coils to 2 ohms?
Yes. Wiring the two coils in parallel gives a 2-ohm load; in series it gives 8 ohms. Check that your amp is stable at the load you choose.
Sealed or ported box?
Kicker says it works in either. A sealed box gives tighter, more controlled bass; a ported box gives more output around the tuning frequency.
Is an 8-inch sub enough for a car?
It adds solid punch and fills out the low end in a small cabin or tight space. It will not match a 12-inch sub for very deep bass.
What is SoloKon?
It is Kicker's cone design that joins the cone to a back brace as one unit, which the company says cools the motor and reduces distortion.
