Built for Tight Installations
The CompVT series is designed specifically for situations where traditional subwoofers won’t fit. Its reduced mounting depth allows it to work in shallow custom boxes, under-seat builds, or compact trunk enclosures while still moving enough air to produce satisfying bass response.
Clean, Controlled Bass Output
The 52CVT122 is tuned for balanced performance rather than extreme SPL. It delivers tight, musical low-end that integrates well with factory or upgraded systems, making it a strong choice for daily driving setups where clarity matters as much as output.
Flexible System Integration
With a dual 2-ohm voice coil design, the sub offers multiple wiring options to match a wide range of mono amplifiers. It performs well in both sealed enclosures for tighter bass response and ported designs for increased output.
