Why Choose Kicker 50CWCD124 Component Car Subwoofer?
Flexible Wiring and Accurate, Durable Bass
Featuring dual 4-Ohm voice coils, this subwoofer allows versatile parallel or series wiring to match your amplifier setup. The injection-molded polypropylene cone ensures durability and delivers precise, distortion-free bass even under high-excursion conditions.
Cool, Durable, and Deep-Performing Bass
Forced-air cooling keeps the subwoofer running reliably even at high power levels. The ribbed polyurethane surround allows smooth cone movement and extended excursion for deeper, more impactful bass, while signature yellow surround stitching reinforces the surround for added durability and long-lasting performance.
Durable Construction for Reliable, Accurate Bass
High-strength Spiralead tinsel leads ensure secure voice coil connections even under heavy load, while the stamped steel basket provides a sturdy foundation that minimizes vibration, delivering precise, distortion-free performance.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- • Why does it produce weak bass after installation?
Weak bass is usually caused by an enclosure that doesn't meet the recommended specifications or incorrect amplifier tuning. Check the enclosure volume, crossover settings, and speaker polarity before increasing the amplifier gain.
- • Can I install this in either a sealed or ported enclosure?
Yes. It is designed to perform well in both enclosure types when built according to the recommended internal volume and tuning requirements.
- • Why does my amplifier keep entering protection mode?
This commonly indicates an impedance mismatch, loose wiring, or an electrical short. Verify the wiring configuration and confirm your amplifier is stable at the final speaker load.
- • Can I use this with my factory car stereo?
Yes. An external amplifier is required, and many factory audio systems also require a line output converter to provide the proper signal.
- • Why does the bass become distorted when I turn up the volume?
Distortion is typically caused by amplifier clipping, excessive gain, or improper crossover settings. Proper amplifier tuning helps produce clean bass while protecting the subwoofer.
- • Does it require a break-in period before it performs its best?
Yes. Playing music at moderate listening levels for several hours allows the suspension to loosen naturally and improves bass response.
- • Why is there a rattling noise coming from my trunk during heavy bass?
Loose trim panels, license plates, or enclosure hardware are the most common causes. Tightening loose components and adding sound-deadening material can significantly reduce unwanted vibrations.
- • Can I use an amplifier with more RMS power than the subwoofer is rated for?
Yes. A properly adjusted amplifier with clean power is generally safer than an underpowered amplifier that clips under heavy load.
- • Why does the cone move but produce almost no bass?
This usually happens because of incorrect crossover settings, reversed speaker polarity, or an air leak in the enclosure. Inspect the amplifier configuration and verify all speaker wiring before replacing any equipment.
- • Can I wire multiple subwoofers to one mono amplifier?
Yes. Calculate the combined impedance carefully and make sure it matches the amplifier's supported operating range before connecting multiple subwoofers.
