SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR BUILT-IN INSTALLATIONS
Fathom v2 subwoofers are designed to be "built-in" friendly. All typically
needed controls are located on the front panel above the woofer. A Fathom v2 can
be easily integrated into custom cabinetry by following a few simple guidelines.
1) Allow 4 inches (10 cm) of clear space behind the amplifier panel for adequate
cooling and connector clearance.
2) On all other sides (except the bottom), allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) clearance
for adequate ventilation.
3) While the Fathom v2 generally runs only warm during spirited operation, we do
recommend that adequate heat vents are included in any custom cabinet which
encloses the Fathom v2. A pair of 3 inch (7.5 cm) diameter vents near the bottom
of the cabinet and near the top of the cabinet, will allow cool air to circulate over
the amp panel of your Fathom v2 subwoofer system keeping it cool and happy.
4) Your Fathom v2 subwoofer is capable of moving substantial quantities of air. If
the front of the Fathom v2 is covered by a custom grille, the grille size must be
AT LEAST equal to the woofer cone area for each model to ensure the output is
not choked by the custom cabinet. Refer to the chart below for recommended
vent areas for each model.
