bottom of the enclosure using the supplied smaller screws. Each bracket must be positioned so the
rounded end protrudes approximately 3/4" (2cm) from under the cabinet to allow a screw to easily pass
through the bracket, securing the enclosure to the vehicle. See Figure 4.
Plug your subwoofer speaker wire into the terminals, using the red connector as positive and the black
connector as negative. Hook the other end of the wire to your subwoofer amplifier in accordance with
its owner's manual. With the enclosure right side up, securely attach the enclosure to the vehicle with
the supplied larger screws. If the supplied hardware is not applicable to your installation, some other
means of securely attaching the enclosure to the vehicle must be used.
Sound Check:
Poor bass response?
Check the system phasing by reversing a speaker
connection from positive to negative on the subwoofer channel; if the bass improves,
then the subwoofer was out of phase in reference to the rest of the system.
