Well I got this CVT 12" 4-ohm sub in a sealed box for my Acura, and boy was I surprised to see the footprint.I was 1/4 of the size of my previous single 12" MTX Thunder setup.I needed some trunk space back due to my lifestyle change, but I did not expect this much space back.Anyway as for the sound initially I did not like it for the first few weeks cause it was just not at all as loud or clear as my MTX setup. Then after a quick retuning of my 350 watt RMS amp, I set the low pass to 45hz, and upped the gain a bit more, but to my surprise this time around it did not distort like it did in the previous tune, so now it was thumping harder and tighter then my MTX, hitting all the right notes. Later I read that you have to break these CVT subs in for a few weeks before you can get your sound. I listen to everything from old school classic rock, metal, Raga Metal, Death Metal, Drum n Bass, Ambient, Trance, Tip Hop, Hip hop, House, and even some classical.This sub has yet to disappoint, but keep in mind my setup works for me because it was meant to fill the low end sound that was missing from my stock Bose system. This is not a Kicker L7 so please don't expect to enter any SPL competition with this setup. So overall I love my new setup and not to mention my new trunk space.

Kicker Comp 07TCVT124 Thin-Prof Seal Box 4-Ohm SubwooferProduct Description: The new CompVT Subwoofer with reduced mounting depth provides the real, head-pounding bass expected from a KICKER woofer, minus the bulk of a standard round KICKER woofer. The same holds true if you want to drop ready-made bass behind the seat or under the hatch, and still have plenty of hauling space.

CompVT subwoofers offer CompVR quality and performace in places few others can go. Click to enlarge. CompVT-Loaded Sub Boxes are the smallest sub-loaded enclosures ever from KICKER labs, but no worries--this is a blistering, true high-performance KICKER woofer and box. Take all the ground-breaking technology from the new CompVT sub--special four-layer voice coil, ventless solid-pole design allowing flush mount to the enclosure's back wall, space-minimizing binding posts--and combine it with a legend--a tough KICKER wood box covered with dense black and gray carpeting.
It's a punishing 10- or 12-inch sub in the size equivalent of a 8-inch enclosure. All sealed for maximum thunder, CVT Sub Boxes are available with either a destructive 12-inch (TCVT12) or 10-inch (TCVT10) CompVT subwoofer, handling 400 watts RMS and packing serious punishment.
Both CVT Sub Boxes feature the impedance (2 or 4 Ohm) designated at the terminal cup assembly.

I thought it might be a good product till the tire pressure dropped for the first time.The pressure dropped and the signal went off like it should.Then I added air to the proper pressure and the Firefly still flashed.Never could get it to stop flashing till it went dead.The toll free number for help had been disconnected so I couldn't find out if I did something wrong or not.Pretty expensive for a one use item.
