Kicker CompVR CVR10 Manuel D'utilisation page 5

Do not install a port opening against a solid surface, such as an internal brace, back-panel or trunk wall,
seat or interior panel of your vehicle. The port opening must remain unobstructed. Use the smallest
dimension of the rectangular port as the minimum amount of space between the port opening and any
solid surface to insure unrestricted airfl ow.
If you prefer an ultra-smooth bass response, you should loosely fi ll your CompVR enclosure with poly-fi l
stuffi ng. Vented designs will require covering the end of the port (located inside the box) with grill cloth,
chicken wire, or expanded metal to prevent the poly-fi l from exiting the port. The use of poly-fi l will slightly
decrease effi ciency, but will deepen and extend the low frequency output.

Sound Check: Poor bass response? Check the system phasing by reversing the positive and negative
speaker connections on the subwoofer. If the bass improves, then the subwoofer was out of phase in
reference to the rest of the audio system.

for the most current information. To get the best performance from your new KICKER Subwoofer, we
recommend using genuine KICKER Accessories and Wiring. Please allow two weeks of break-in time for
the subwoofer to reach optimum performance.
If mounting in trunk space or other compartments of the vehicle, pay attention to cable lines, trunk
springs, hinges and seat mechanisms that could cause problems with the operation of the vehicle or
stereo system. Carefully lay the stereo system cables; pay attention to seat fasteners and other items that
could harm the cables.
WARNING: KICKER products are capable of producing sound levels that can permanently damage your
hearing! Turning up a system to a level that has audible distortion is more damaging to your ears than listening
to an undistorted system at the same volume level. The threshold of pain is always an indicator that the sound
level is too loud and may permanently damage your hearing. Please use common sense when controlling
volume.
