  • Page 4: Recommended Enclosures

    ECOMMENDED NCLOSURES This manual outlines two specific types of enclosures that provide distinctly different performance.This section is to help you decide which type is best for your application. SEALED ENCLOSURES Sealed enclosures are the simplest to build.The most important part of building a sealed enclosure is to make sure that the enclosure is airtight.
  • Page 5: Vented Enclosures

    ECOMMENDED NCLOSURES VENTED ENCLOSURES Vented enclosures vary only from the sealed enclosure in that a vent or port is added to “tune” the enclosure.The enclosures recommended are designed for great overall performance. Larger boxes tend to be easy to tune to lower frequencies while medium and small boxes are easier to tune to higher frequencies.The vented design is less linear in response than the sealed box but with noticeably more output at the tuning frequency.
  • Page 6: Wiring Configurations

    IRING ONFIGURATIONS By varying the wiring configuration of your speakers you can create an impedance load to match your system. Since each voice coil of a DVC speaker carries its own impedance, altering the wiring configurations gives a range of options for impedance loads. Series, Parallel, or Series-Parallel wiring configurations are different techniques for wiring speakers that provide different loads.
  • Page 7: Building An Enclosure

    UILDING AN NCLOSURE To work properly, the walls of the enclosure must be rigid and not flex when subjected to the high pressures generated by the speaker's operation. For optimum performance, we recommend using 3/4" MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) and internal bracing.The enclosure should be glued together and secured with nails or screws.
