Features
y Injection Molded Polymineral Cone with ISD
™
(Inverted Structural Dome) is a high performance
composite, which remains rigid, minimizes cone flex and lowers
harmonic distortion. The CompVR’s cone consists of a unique
one-piece, aluminum vapor-deposit material that moves as a
light weight piston, exhibiting power and control.
y
Rear Cone Brace integrates into the CompVR’s cone with a
continuous contact perimeter weld, which offers unmatched
strength and resistance to deformation under pressure.
y
Double Stitched Surround adds a mechanical fastener to
the chemical adhesives. This duo prevents the cone and
surround from separating in the harshest conditions.
y
Optimized Polyfoam Ribbed Surround Radius allows
extended cone excursion for additional bass output and higher
SPL, and couples the suspension into a conjoined linear-
motion body.
y
High-Temp Polyimide Film Voice Coil Former
improves sonic and conductive properties, and prevents
thermal-electrical meltdown.
y
Dual Ultra-Length Voice Coils sustain enormous cone
excursion and provide flexible impedance matching options.
y Sleeved High-Power Tinsel Lead Wires eliminate
broken leads and power loss, due to the common use of
“insufficient-gauge” lead wires. The lead wires are terminated
with polymer-based strain-relieving mechanical fasteners.
y
Human Fine-Tuned Enclosures and computer-modeling
allow Kicker’s award winning CompVR subwoofers to offer
bass performance that surpasses most custom made boxes.
y
One-Piece Uniplate
™
with Vented Hyper-Extended
Pole Piece and Backplate
1. Optimizes heat transfer efficiency for cooler operation
and maximum power handling ability.
2. Eliminates erratic magnetic flux from the voice-coil gap.
3. Releases pressure under the suspension for uniform
cone movement and responsive low bass.
4. Prevents the voice-coil from bottoming out and
corresponding damage.
y
New Enhanced BAM (Basket and Motor) Assembly
utilizes a high strength steel basket, features a low-profile open
design, and provides a solid foundation for the precision-
aligned motor assembly.
y
Perimeter Venting in the BAM relieves pressure from
under the spider, supports a linear excursion, and helps
dissipate heat from the voice coil and motor structure.
