They're about even (I'd rank the CompVRs slightly higher than the HE2s) ... I wouldn't pay an extra $100 to upgrade to CompVRs ...

Port those he2's dude [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] and upgrade the amp you should be fine [img]smile.gif[/img] i think given all things equal the comp Vr's should be about the same. Although i like the Vr's a bit more but thats just a matter of opinion

CVR's go for 150.00 a piece at my local shop. I paid 150.00 for 2 of them because I got them on the net. They are very nice subs. But that depends on what the total cost of them both would end up being. Because if it is like more than 100.00 per sub I wouldn't bother. Go on the net and you can find 'em dirt cheap! If you buy them off the net it is worth the switch! Because they are so cheap online!

Im pretty sure, (if not positive) that the Kicker CVR is only s'posed to be like $215 cdn. for a 10", id expect another $15 for the 12's so a next bill seems a little over priced, (although that depends on how long you had your RF's) and I much will say, (IMO) that the kicker is a better driver, what I would do, is have the RF's returned to you, buy tha CVR's and sell the fosgate's to a friend, youll probly re-coup more money, and your friend will get an upgrade or a start to his/her system [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]
