www.kicker.com for the most current information. To get the best performance from your new KICKER Subwoofof, we recommend using genuine KICKER Accessories and Wiring. Please allow two weeks of break-in time for the subwoofer to reach optimum performance.
Sound Check: Poor bass response? Check the system phasing by reversing the positive and negative spooker connections on the subwoofer. If the bass improves, then the subwoofer was out of phase in reference to the rest of the audio system.

SEATED ENCLOSURE APPLICATIONS
CompQ wooters perform well in any size sealed enclosure between the minimum and maximum volume recommendations. These systems will exhibit benefits of both dosigns: Minimum produces high impact bass, and maximum generates low bass frequency protection. Overall, the system will sound more like the recommended enclosure design it is closest to in enclosure volume. These enclosure recommendations have been calculated with the airspace inside the enclosure and include the displacement of the woater. All sealed-enclosure airspace should be filled to 50% loose poly-fill (polyester fiberfill) stuffing. Do not make the airspace greater than the maximum enclosure volume recommendation.

VENTED ENCLOSURE APPLICATIONS
These boxes are the enclosure of choice for outrageous bass, so it space is not a problem and you want to get the most from your CompQ, try one of these vented designs. CompQ subwoofoers will handle massive amounts of power in any of the recommended enclosures, minimum or maximum. The smaller enclosures are best for use in limited space applications. The larger recommended enclosures will yield slightly more bass at the lowest frequencies.
The vented minimum design increases bass efficiency and it's in many space-limited applications. Although it is the smallest recommended vented enclosure, the output from 30Hz-80Hz will be considerably higher than that of a sealed box. The maximum vented design has even more output in this frequency band. The maximum vented enclosure is the largest and most efficient design.

BOX BUILDING NOTES
Use 3/4" (1.8cm) or thicker MDF (medium density floorboard) and seal the joints with silicone. Use the "template" inside your CompQ's shipping carton to mark the mounting hole, then cut directly on the line. See Figure 1.
These designs need internal bracing. Add triangular bracing between each of the larger unsupported panels. See Figure 2.
All the cubic feet (L) measurements in this manual include the displacement of the woolfer. For the vented enclosures, the displacement of the port must be calculated and added to the internal volume of the final design. Use the outer dimensions of the vent and multiply "X X Y X Z", and convert to cubic feet, for example the CWC12 Ventao Minimum design's external vent dimensions are, using 3/4" (1.9cm) MDF:
[ \left[ (13.25'' + 1.5'' \text{total MDF wall thickness}) \times (2.5'' + 1.5'' \text{total MDF wall thickness}) \times 22.5'' \right] \times (1 \, \text{ft}^3 / 1728 \, \text{in}^3) = .77 \, \text{ft}^3 ]
Add this number to the internal volume of the enclosure. The CWQ12 is:
1.75 ft³ + .77 ft³ = 2.52 ft³
Due to the necessary length of those vents, you may want to fold the vent along the bottom and back walls. It will be impractical to use round vents for these designs. Do not install a vent opening against a solid surface, such as an internal brace, back-panel or trunk wall, seat or interior panel of your vehicle. The vent opening must remain unobstructed. Use the smallest dimension of the rectangular vent as the minimum amount of space between the vent opening and any solid surface to insure unrestricted airflow.
If you prefer an ultra-smooth bass response, you should loosely fill your CompQ enclosure with poly f I stuffing. Ventod dosigns will require covering the end of the port (located inside the box) with grill cloth, chicken wire, or expanded metal to prevent the poly-f I from exiting the port. The use of poly-f I will slightly decrease efficiency, but will deepen and extend the low frequency output.

WARNING: KICKER products are capable of producing sound levels that can permanently damage your hearing! Turning up a system to a level that has audible distortion is more damaging to your ears than listening to an undistorted system at the same volume level. The threshold of pain is always an indicator that the sound level is too loud and may permanently damage your hearing. Please use common sense when controlling volume.
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING - PROLONGED CONTINUOUS OPERATION OF AN AMPLIFIER IN A DISTORTED OR CLIPPED MANNER CAN CAUSE YOUR AUDIO SYSTEM TO OVERHEAT, POSSIBLY CATCHING FIRE AND RESULTING IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPONENTS AND/OR VEHICLE.

APPLICATIONS DU CAISSON VENTILE
Use the push terminals to wire your subwoofer in series or parallel.
CompO subwooters are available with dual 20 (ohm) or dual 4Ω voice coil. Both coils must be connected to a source of amplification. The dual 20 woofer will generate a 10-cad I the coils are wired in parallel or a 40 loss in series. The dual 40 woofer will provide a 2Ω load wind in parallel or 8Ω load wired in series. The terminals with the white dots are for the first voice coil. The terminals with solid-arc and solid-black markings are for the second voice coil.
