[QUOTE="TheBigPilferer, post: 8863916, member: 690294"] Yes. The last sub I used previously was a Kicker square 12". I've tried a lot of subs over the years in my usual vehicles, and this sub was nothing special by any means. Definitely not worth paying full price for, that's for sure. I got it in a trade, and I modified the port on the box to lower the tuning frequency to about 32 Hz. After I did that, the sub sounded pretty good and I enjoyed it for about a month before selling it. The square cone did look kinda cool, but there's nothing special about it. One good thing about Kicker or any other really recognized brand name is that is easy to resell. I've found that when I have boutique items that they are much more difficult to sell locally bc the average person hasn't heard of it. One last thing, regardless of what subs you get, make sure you build a proper box. A cheap woofer can sound good in a good enclosure, but a great sub can sound bad in a poor enclosure. [/QUOTE]
