I have a pair of Kicker CompVR12's in my prelude, powered by a Phoenix Gold Octane 8.0.1 amp, running roughly 800 watts to them. They hit really hard and have great sound quality, but are very power hungry subs (400W continuous/600W peak). I've had them for years now and they keep on taking the beating I give them, I listen to a very wide variety of music and they seem to sound good with no matter what I play through them.
Here's my setup I put together last year...I wasn't going for anything elaborate, just something that was clean looking and sounded good You can't see the amp that powers the subs, it's on the other side of the box
