Never heard them. Kicker is an ok brand though. The Comp is their lowest level sub but hey, it's forty bucks. It'll make bass.

This guy thinks the ten inch size are the shizzle...

10" Comps "best damn tens ever" is his opinion.

Should mention though. The 10" Kicker Comps are 150rms handling while the 8" are 100rms handling. Also, the ten inch are like 5 bucks more.

Kicker Comp 10"

Just so you know.

But I agree with others. If you can save up, save up. I wish I had just saved up before buying when I first started getting into car audio.

But if this is all you want/need, it's good enough if it makes you happy.
