SEALED ENCLOSURE APPLICATIONS
CompVT woofers perform well in any size sealed enclosure between the minimum and maximum
volume recommendations. These systems will exhibit benefi ts of both designs: Minimum produces
high-impact bass, and maximum 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. All sealed-enclosure airspace should be fi lled to 50% loose poly-fi l (polyester
fi berfi ll) stuffi ng. Do not make the airspace greater than the maximum enclosure volume recommendation.
To make the most effi cient use of space when building the Sealed Minimum enclosure for your CompVT
subwoofer, you must use the included clearance plate. The clearance plate allows the CompVT
subwoofer to sit recessed within the back panel of the subwoofer box to minimize the enclosure’s
depth. The clearance plate must seal tightly. First, use a plunging router, straight-cut bit, and a circle jig
to create a 1/16” (2mm) deep recess with an outer diameter of 6 1/2” (16.7cm) and an inner diameter
of approximately 5” (12.7cm). Center the recess behind the subwoofer on the back panel. Then, cut
a 5 1/4” (13.3cm) diameter hole in the center of the recess all the way through the back panel. Using
the clearance plate as a reference, drill the six screw holes with a #29 (0.136”, 3.5mm) drill bit. Next,
countersink each screw hole using a 1/4” (6mm) drill or countersinking bit so the clearance plate will fi t
tightly against the back panel. Remove the paper backing from the foam gasket and adhere it to the inside
of the clearance plate. Then, fasten the clearance plate to the box with six #8 screws. See Figure 3.

VENTED ENCLOSURE APPLICATIONS
The smaller enclosures are best for use in limited-space applications. The larger recommended
enclosures will yield slightly more bass at the lowest frequencies.
The vented minimum design increases bass effi ciency
and fi ts in many space-limited applications. Although
it is the smallest recommended vented enclosure, the
output from 30Hz–80Hz will be considerably higher than
that of a sealed box. The maximum vented design has
even more output in this frequency band. The maximum
vented enclosure is the largest and most effi cient design.
BOX BUILDING NOTES
Use 3/4” (1.9cm) or thicker MDF (medium density
fi berboard) and seal the joints with silicone. Use the
“template” inside your CompVT’s shipping carton to mark
the mounting hole, then cut directly on the line. These
designs need internal bracing. Add triangular bracing
between each of the larger unsupported panels. See
Figure 4.

All the cubic feet (L) measurements in this manual include the displacement of the woofer. For the vented
enclosures the displacement of the port must be calculated and added to the internal volume of the fi nal
design.
Use the outer dimensions of the port and multiply “X x Y x Z”, then convert to cubic feet. For example, the
CVT12 Vented Minimum design’s external port dimensions are, using 3/4” (1.9cm) MDF:
(12.5” + 1.5” total MDF wall thickness) x
(2.5” + 1.5” total MDF wall thickness) x
(20”) x (1 ft3 / 1728 in3 ) = .65 ft3,
Then, add this number to the internal volume of
the enclosure. 1.75 ft3 + .65 ft3 = 2.4 ft3. See
Figure 5.
Due to the necessary length of these ports, you
may want to fold the port along the bottom and
back walls. It will be impractical to use round
ports for these designs.
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 CompVT 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.
For more advice on box building, refer to your Authorized KICKER Dealer, or click on the Support tab on
the KICKER homepage, www.kicker.com. Please e-mail support@kicker.com or call Technical Support
at (405) 624-8583 for specifi c or unanswered questions.
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.
Note: All specifi cations and performance fi gures are subject to change. Please visit www.kicker.com
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.
