First of all, we would like to congratulate you for your choice of the BLACK HYDRA products!
On these pages, you will not find an absolutely accurate justification for the superiority / uniqueness of our audio systems, because music can only be assessed by emotions gained from listening.
Black Hydra' speakers will satisfy you by the excellent sound quality rather than with the numbers. It will give you true emotions of the listening to your favorite music, incomparable with the evaluation of «dry figures» written in specifications.
During building of audio system based on Black Hydra' speaker systems we recommend that You use only high quality components in each of the chain links, to achieve the most accurate transmission of the music material. Remember, the quality of any system is determined by it's weakest link.
Technical specifications of Black Hydra subwoofers are equal and correspond to the most of best industry' representatives, but at the same time it surpassing them on subjective estimations of sound quality.
The low-frequency speaker HGS-2521 is built in full compliance with the principles of uncompromising SQ subwoofers - a combination of a strong «motor» and a lightweight cone from a rigid cellulose composite. Powerful die cast frame(basket) eliminates any possibility of parasitic sounds appearance, even in extreme usage modes of the speaker. The frame of the voice coil is made of black aluminum, which gives additional heat dissipation and avoids the effect of temperature compression - short-term increases in the active impedance of the voice coil winding at the signal peaks and as a consequence, narrowing the dynamic range. The speaker's motor, surround and spider are provide a linear movement of the cone within 24 mm with a soft restriction when exiting beyond the operating conditions. This minimizes distortion at normal and at high volume levels and eliminates the possibility of mechanical damage to the speaker when operating in extreme usage modes. The motor uses ferrite magnets of the highest grade with excellent stability and repeatability of it's parameters. When you install the speaker in the recommended acoustic enclosure, you get a subwoofer with a fast and accurate response to the signal being transmitted, capable of transmitting not just the power and depth of the bass, but also draw perfect structure of complex bass instruments and can show all the beauty of the bass range.
In order to avoid problems in the operation of the equipment, we convincingly ask you to follow the advice mentioned in this manual.
JUST ENJOY
- Fasten the subwoofer properly when installing it in the vehicle. If the component is disconnected during driving, it may cause serious damage to the passengers of the vehicle or another vehicle.
- Before installing the components, if possible store the product in its original package to avoid accidental damage to the product.
- Be careful when installing and dismantling the subwoofer! Do not let the subwoofer drop to avoid damage of its moving parts.
- When working with tools follow safety rules.
- Before the installation switch off the head unit and all other audio devices to avoid their damage.
- Make sure that the location of the subwoofer does not hinder the proper operation of mechanical and electrical devices of the vehicle.
- Do not install components in places exposed to water, excessive humidity, high or low temperature, dust or dirt. ATTENTION!!! The product may be operated at +5 to +40 °C. In case of moisture condensation, let the product to dry.
- When performing plumbing, drilling or cutting works with the car, make sure that there is no wiring, brake lines, fuel pipe or other structural elements under the place of work. Follow the safety rules! Use protective glasses and gloves.
- When stretching back the speaker cables make sure that they are not in contact with sharp edges or moving mechanical devices. Make sure that they are firmly fixed and protected over the entire length.
- The diameter of the speaker cables must be selected in accordance with the length and applied power.
- Never stretch the cables outside of the car and near the moving parts of the car. This can lead to destruction of the insulating layer, short circuit and fire.
- To protect the cables use rubber gaskets if the wire passes through a hole in the plate, or other similar materials if it lies close to the parts exposed to heat.
CAUTION! High sound pressure can damage your health!
Please use the common sense when controlling volume!

*Amplifiers, crossovers and acoustic systems are not included in package and are sold separately.
The correct choice of the amplifier, its settings and enclosure design prolongs the lifetime of your subwoofer. You should select an amplifier with a nominal power below the nominal power of the subwoofer. Proper coordination of the head unit (HU) with the amplifier will provide a clean, undistorted signal fed to the subwoofer, which prevents overheating and voice coil damage. Like any other speaker the subwoofer has moving and stationary parts. We strongly recommend that the moving parts of the subwoofer should be warmed up at the beginning of operation. Be extra careful when warming up the parts. Warm up the subwoofer using musical material for 40 hours at medium power. If, during operation at maximum volume you feel strange smell, you should lower the volume of the subwoofer and let the device to cool down at a low volume.
Recommended settings of the amplifier and HU: Volume of HU should not exceed 80%. The amplifier sensitivity should be set to 50%, subsonic filter frequency (Subsonic) should be set to 5 Hz below the port settings. For example, if you configure the port at 30 Hz, Subsonic should be set to 25 Hz. The low pass filter LPF (the filter that cuts all frequencies above those set for the filter) should be set to 63-80 Hz, bassboost should be set to 0.
