Press Release (Unedited): STILLWATER, USA – KICKER® has developed three new, ultra-thin, down-firing loaded enclosures, dubbed the TRTP-Series, and all are currently shipping. All enclosures come with a single 2-Ohm terminal, and are available in 8-, 10-, and 12-inch models. The enclosures are available for purchase by consumers in-store and online.
Included in each enclosure is the popular KICKER CompRT® thin subwoofer, alongside a resurgent reFLEX™ passive radiator for a significant upgrade in bass without increasing overall depth. Barely five inches high, TRTP Enclosures are built to fit anywhere from behind the seat of a pickup to the back cargo area of a hatchback. The down-firing design allows it to fit in tight spaces, yet still deliver peak performance. The rugged enclosures design has the added benefit of allowing items to be stacked on top of it for maximum cargo space. TRTP Enclosures are carpeted and custom embroidered with the KICKER logo.
The shallow-mount CompRT subwoofer handles an exceptional amount of power without sacrificing depth. The speakers include ribbed Santoprene® surround as well as perimeter venting and UniPlate™ back plate and solid pole piece for thermal management at any volume level.

Got to hear the 12″ at CES. Pretty damn impressive from a tiny package. The rep jumped up and down on the box to showcase it’s well built and that you can stack groceries, tools, luggage, etc on top of it in a trunk.
