Zone for the Cone

The Kicker 43CVT102 features a single voice coil subwoofer with a specially-designed reinforced cone. This innovative cone design allows the subwoofer to pump out impressive low frequencies while maintaining a shallow top-mount depth of only 4-1/4". With the included clearance plate, the subwoofer can sit in a recess in the back of the enclosure, making an already thin box even thinner. The basket's full perimeter venting, along with the UniPlate back plate and pole piece, ensures exceptional thermal management, even in a slim subwoofer. The Kicker 43CVT102 is built to perform optimally and remain cool even in compact installations.

The Kicker 43CVT102 can handle up to 350 watts RMS power, allowing it to reproduce the depth and impact that your music deserves. With a peak power handling of 750 watts, this subwoofer delivers powerful and dynamic bass that will enhance your audio experience. The 2-ohm impedance of the subwoofer draws more power from your mono amp, maximizing its potential. Whether you prefer a sealed or ported enclosure, this versatile subwoofer performs exceptionally well in both configurations. You have the freedom to choose the enclosure type that suits your listening preferences and vehicle's acoustics. The Kicker 43CVT102 offers the perfect balance of power handling and flexibility.
