*~*~*~* KICKER CompVR 18” - 03CVR18 - RARE ***GHOST*** Subwoofer *~*~*~*

Description: UP FOR AUCTION: (1)KICKER CVR 18(model: 03CVR18)-SUBWOOFER ONLY-(Cabinet is Free w/ Local pickup) !!THIS IS YOUR ONLY CHANCE!! Check Below for ACTUAL VIDEO of the Kicker CVR18https://youtu.be/OZ9m4UHVe2c Features: *Hemispherical Polymineral Cone with Inverted Structural Dome (ISD) Means high rigidity under pressure for accurate linear control, low enclosure pressure loss to reduce "pump-down", high internal dampening, and excellent sunlight, pollution and moisture resistance. *WARG (Wrap ARound Gasket)Instead of using cork gaskets, which can separate, the Comp VRs have a one piece gasket that wraps around the front and back of the mounting flange. It is more durable and ergonomically pleasing to the eye. The previous cork gaskets could tear off or if you were transplanting the speaker into another box, they could stay adhered to the old box causing you to order another gasket. These problems are eliminated with the new rubber gaskets. They not only look better, but also function better by eliminating the chance for air leaks.(provided the box is built correctly!) We still recommend if you are carpeting the box, to cut away any carpet that is under the woofer mounting flange. *SSD (Spun Spoke Design)The basket not only looks impressive, but it is extremely functional. This stamped steel basket provides a solid foundation for the motor assembly insuring that all the parts work together in harmony and prevent shifting or misalignment. Without a solid foundation, the speaker’s various parts could shift under extreme excursion causing premature failure and add unwanted noise to the music. If misaligned, the voice coil could rub the inner wall of the motor structure and thus exposing the bare windings, which would cause speaker failure. The same thing happens if the coil former rubs the pole-piece. The damaged former exposes the windings causing speaker failure. When other speakers are pushed to their limits they tend to make noises that add coloration to the music. When you’re LIVIN’LOUD you only want to hear the music the artist intended you to hear, not a bunch of unwanted ringing. *Perimeter VentingWithout the perimeter venting along the side of the speaker, hot air would be trapped in with the voice coil. This will cause the structure to heat up quicker and cause power compression, which results in decreased output, as well as shorter speaker life. Perimeter venting causes a vortex cooling effect around the coil which exchanges the hot air around the voice coil for cooler air outside the speaker. It also releases pressure from under the spider to allow the speaker to work in a more linear fashion. All of this translates into cooler operating temperatures which will allow the speaker to sound and performance better. *Blackened One Piece Uniplate with Vented Hyper-Extended Pole 1. Provides enhanced heat transfer for cool operation and maximum power handling. The heat is transferred from the pole piece to the back plate, effectively acting like a radiator in an engine. This lowers the operating temperature of the voice coil. Note:The increase in temperature increases the impedance of the speaker. This results in lower output and is referred to as Power Compression.2. Reduces non-linear magnetic fields around the voice coil gap for superior cone motion control. The extended pole assures the voice coil is always in the magnetic field when moving peak to peak. When the speaker reaches it’s Xmax, the voice coil is still in the gap between the pole piece and magnet structure due to its extended pole-piece. 3. Releases pressure under ISD for freer cone motion and enhanced low frequency response. Air trapped under the ISD is forced out though the pole-piece to allow the cone to move freely. Heat and pressure build up under the ISD and need to be released to allow the speaker to function properly. *High-Temp Kapton Voice Coil Former Heat is the primary enemy to the life of a speaker, which is one of the reasons we use Kapton® voice coil formers. Kapton® is a man-made product that is light, durable and heat resistant. The Kapton® former acts as an insulator to keep the heat of the voice coil from breaking down the adhesive that connects the voice coil to the cone. During high excursion and prolonged exposure to heat, the Kapton® former holds it’s shape and does not expand or contract. As a bonus, Kapton® is also a very quiet material during operation and does not discolor the music by adding unwanted sound. *ISD (Inverted Structural Dome) Kicker was one of the first companies to switch to the Inverted Structural Dome. We have designed a cone with a groove for the ISD to lock into, further adding strength to the structure. When a cone reaches it’s peak it wants to buckle because it’s momentum keeps it moving out. The ISD provides structural support for the cone to resist buckling. NOTE: When the cone buckles, the output of the woofer decreases. Therefore, the ISD is not just a cosmetic thing, it is an integral part of the woofer to maintain it’s maximum performance. *Stitched Surround A signature of KICKER woofers has always been the stitched surround. It prevents the surround from separating from the cone at high excursions. When the woofer is moving back and forth it puts a lot of strain on the adhesive that is holding the surround to the cone and often causes the two to separate. Stitching the surround to the cone eliminates this from happening. If stitching were inexpensive, everybody would do it! *Dual Long-Throw Voice Coils A speaker can obtain extreme Xmax only when the voice coil is long enough and can sustain the stress. *High-Power Lead Wires Resist lead breakage and power robbing resistance losses under demanding conditions. When a speaker is being pushed to it’s limits there is a lot of strain being put on the leads. Sleeving tinsel leads help strengthen them to resist breakage. *Spring-Loaded Nickel Plated Terminals On a Performance speaker like the CompVR you would expect nothing less than a Performance terminal. They allow the installer to use the maximum gauge wire to minimize power losses for the ultimate Ground Poundin’ system. Sealed Enclosure Applications: (COMPACT)C18VR 2.2 cu.ft.
