My friend had that same sub/box in his Tacoma and blew it pretty quick, you can't even move the speaker in or out any so Im guessing he like broke something on the sub too. He had a pretty decent audio place do it too so it was all setup right too.

The cvts are nice subs but they take power to get the sound right. A kicker 400x1 amp is perfect for pushing one of them. I am a kicker guy myself. The CVRs did have problems blowing easy but the solobaric I had was mean.

Size:  84.5 KB and couldn't be anymore impressed with how well the sub handles the power and takes a beating and it doesn't hurt it at all... go kicker!
