The space saving CompVT car stereo subwoofer from Kicker perfectly combines outstanding power handling capability along with the ability to fit in any of the tight spots of your vehicle. The extra shallow CompVT 08CVT84 component subwoofer from Kicker combines slender frame with the extended cone excursion without giving up its sound quality or the bass impact. The 8 inch Kicker CompVT 08CVT84 component subwoofer is designed to handle nearly200 watts of RMS as it only requires just less than 3-1/2 inches of mounting depth. The inflexible injection molded polypropylene cone of the subwoofer provides a serious thump whereas the ribbed Santoprene rubber surround of the subwoofer helps in controlling the cone movement to offer accurate response.

The exclusive design of the Kicker CompVT 08CVT84 car stereo component subwoofer allows you to mount it directly against the back wall of the subwoofer enclosure and the perimeter venting at the stamped steel basket helps in keeping the subwoofer cool under pressure. The cone of the subwoofer is a modified spoke cone design and so the CVT series of woofer are shallower than the standard CVR counterparts.

The Kicker CompVT 08CVT84 component subwoofer uses a high strength steel basket that features a low profile open design to offer a solid foundation for the perfectly aligned motor structure. The CVT component subwoofer is designed with spiraled tinsel lead technology that lets the ideal amount of flex for a better durability and strength. These tinsel lead wires have been woven into the spider to ease mechanical stress. The optimized ribbed santoprene rubber surround of the subwoofer lets extended cone excursion for higher SPL and additional bass output. This surround is attached to the cone to add a mechanical fastener. With the compound nature of the Kicker CompVT 08CVT84 subwoofer they need a break in period to produce optimum low bass response.
