Compvr Sealed Enclosure Applications; Recommended Sealed Enclosures - Kicker CompVR CVR10 Owner's Manual

CompVR Sealed Enclosure Applications

The Kicker CompVR is designed to give more output than competing subwoofers on the market and excels when used in the
recommended sealed boxes. These sealed enclosure designs will give the smoothest response with increased energy at the lowest
frequencies, 20 to 30 Hz. These designs deliver massive amounts of high impact bass and can be driven with fierce levels of amplifier
power.
The CompVR high performance suspension system can operate in a larger sealed enclosure without sacrificing its power handling
ability. This maximum enclosure volume application is ideal for SQ (ultra sound quality) installations. The SQ enclosure generates a
very flat response curve and superbly extends sub bass.
CompVR subwoofers perform well in any size sealed enclosure between the Compact and SQ volume recommendations. These
systems will exhibit benefits of both designs: Compact produces high impact bass and SQ generates low bass frequency protraction.
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 woofer. Do not make the airspace greater than the SQ (Maximum Enclosure Volume) recommendation.
