Features
Dual Voice Coils: This woofer features dual 4Ω voice coils, offering wiring flexibility. When the voice coils are wired in parallel, the woofer presents a 2Ω load. When the voice coils are wired in series, the woofer presents an 8Ω load.
Cooling: Kicker engineers developed a Forced Air Cooling system, using the motor structure to pull air across the voice coils, helping the sub run up to 25% cooler than the previous model.
Sealed Enclosures: Sealed enclosures provide the most control over a woofer and provide accurate sonic reproduction, making them suitable to all types of music. Kicker recommends sealed enclosures from 1.8 ft³ to 3.0 ft³.
Vented Enclosures: Vented (or ported) enclosures typically provide better overall efficiency than sealed so they are suitable for use with smaller amplifiers, giving you more bass output from a given amount of power. Kicker recommends the following ported enclosures:
- Minimum Enclosure Volume: 3.0 ft³ with a 15½" x 2¾" x 25¾" slot port
- Maximum Enclosure Volume: 5.0 ft³ with a 15½" x 3" x 22" slot port
The Kicker 48CWR154 replaces these items:
- injection-molded polypropylene cone with rubber surround
- power handling: 800 watts RMS
- frequency response: 25-500 Hz

Just installed in my Silverado. I have previously had JL Audio subwoofers. This sub was cheaper, and on-sale. Due to the rewards I have earned through Crutchfield, I was able to get a great price on this model. It is very powerful!
