absolutely love these woofers the quality of it sound really great, worth every penny for it. The only problem with it was the wiring kit, every cable it came with the wiring kit felt like it was made from cheap material

You're better off buying each part of this kit separately and getting better components than what's offered. I'll explain what I mean, item by item. These Kicker 10C124 subs are an excellent value, definitely the best budget level subs I've ever owned. If you're looking to build a cheap system that sounds great like I was, you can't go wrong here. The Planet Audio ac1500.1m amplifier can not and will not produce anything close to the RMS watt rating. Simple math tells us that it's capable of producing a maximum of ~400 watts (30 amp fuse x 14.4 volts = 432). Fortunately, the subs are rated at 300 watts RMS for the pair. If you're planning on eventually upgrading the subs thinking that the amp will have a ton of headroom to work with, you're mistaken... but this amp has enough power to adequately drive a pair of 10C124 subs. Because I have a cheapo Chinese head unit with terrible low level outputs, I had to do wiring gymnastics to find a way to provide a decently EQed single to the amp... But with adequate power wiring and a good signal, the amp provides surprisingly loud and clean bass. I obtained best results with an inline crossover on the RCA cables, leaving the amp's low pass filter at max (90hz) and using the inline variable crossover to make on-the-fly adjustments on a song-by-song basis. In this way I can make any type of music sound great without needing access to the amp's controls. The box has chambers that are slightly smaller than the recommended VAS for three subs and the wire terminals are not air tight (you can hear air exiting the chamber if you press on the cone). I recommended buying or building a better box, but if you have this box you should solder the inside speaker terminals and then silicone the hell out of the terminal panel to seal it up tight. Also, loosely pack 1.5lbs of poly fil into each chamber to improve the acoustics. The subs will never achieve optimal sound at their resonant frequency in this box, but they still sound pretty damn good after making these changes. The wiring kit isn't worth installing. Even though the included RCA cables are adequate, the rest of the kit is worthless for this amplifier. I experienced clipping/distortion and overall poor sound quality because the wiring kit doesn't provide enough power to the amp. After installing a Stinger 4GA wiring kit and a 1 farad Stinger capacitor, all my problems disappeared and the amp now performs surprisingly well. Summary- This package is okay, but not recommended. Buy a pair of these subs ($130). Buy this amp if you don't need more than 400 watts ($50). Build or purchase a better box than this one (price varies,~$50). Purchase a Stinger 4GA kit ($60) and 1 farad cap ($50).Read full review

The kicker comp series are the best entry level subs on the market. These subs made me a die hard kicker fan and were the first ones I ever owned. I have installed 10's, 12's, and the 15's these babies will shake. I get the most sound out of them in a tight sealed enclosure, the instruction book will tell you the specs for a box based on each sub size. Don't be afraid to try and build your own box to the specs in the book and like I said the tighter the better. If u want awesome sound quality without breaking your bank these are for you. Enjoy and live loud!

I have older dual 12 ported (3") subs in my car. They are a tiny bit boomy could stuff the ports to make a bit tighter. They are the Toughest speakers I have ever owned. I have shredded the likes of Infinity, Pyle,Rockford Fosgate, Kenwood and many more. These speakers are stitched and have tough surround sound. I am not sure how these newer versions are but the ones of the 80's were GREAT......
I have no way to give you ANY feedback because my new subwoofers burned up in the Valley Fire in Middletown on Sept 12, and I never had a chance to really test them. Thank you very much.
