WiringOptions
CompVX subwoofers are available with dual 2Ω (ohm) or dual 4Ω voice coils. Both coils must be
connected to a source of amplification. The dual 2Ω woofer will generate a 1Ω load if the coils are
wired in parallel or a 4Ω load in series. The dual 4Ω woofer will provide a 2Ω load wired in parallel or
8Ω load wired in series. The terminals with the white dots are for the first voice coil. The terminals with
solid-red and solid-black markings are for the second voice coil. See Figures 1 and 2.

SealedEnclosureApplications
The CompVX generates more sound pressure than competing subwoofers on the market and excels
when used in the recommended sealed boxes. These sealed enclosure designs give the smoothest
response with increased energy at the lowest frequencies, 20 to 30Hz. These designs deliver massive
amounts of highly-accurate bass and can be driven with punishing levels of amplifier power.
The CompVX high performance suspension system can operate in a larger sealed enclosure. This
maximum enclosure volume application is ideal for SQ (ultra sound quality) installations. The SQ
enclosure generates a very flat response curve and superbly extends the subbass response.
CompVX woofers perform well in any size sealed enclosure between the Compact and SQ volume
recommendations. These systems will exhibit benefits of both designs: Compact produces high-impact
bass, and SQ 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 filled to 50% loose poly-fil (polyester fiberfill) stuffing. Do not
make the airspace greater than the SQ, maximum enclosure volume, recommendation.

VentedEnclosureApplications
Ported CompVXs? Absolutely...and with a vengeance! These enclosures incorporate massive slot-
loaded (rectangular) ports with ultra low air velocity for ground pounding street bass that will make your
“skin bounce on your bones!”
These boxes are the enclosure of choice for outrageous street bass and high performance SPL
contests. If space is not a problem and you want to get the most from your CompVX, try one of these
ported designs. You will not be disappointed.
The ported Compact design increases bass efficiency and fits in many space-limited applications.
Although it is the smallest recommended ported enclosure, the output from 30 to 80 Hz will be
considerably higher than that of any sealed box. The SPL / Deep Bass ported design has even more
output in this crucial frequency band.
The SPL / Deep Bass is the largest and most efficient enclosure design. The SPL / Deep Bass delivers
the sonic output needed to win SPL contests and it produces bass notes “all the way down to the
cella”. This design turns heads and jump starts your heart.
A Note on PowerHandlingCapacity
CompVX subwoofers will handle massive amounts of power in any of the recommended enclosures,
minimum or maximum. 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 listed Power Handling capacities assume that both voice coils are in use.
Always connect both coils in a dual voice-coil speaker.

BoxBuildingNotes
Use 3/4” (1.9cm) or thicker MDF (medium density fiberboard) and seal the joints with silicone. Use the
“template” inside your CompVX’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 final design. Use the outer dimensions of the port and multiply “X x Y x Z”, convert to cubic feet, for
example the CVX12 vented compact design’s external port dimensions are, using 3/4” (1.9cm) MDF:
[ (2.5” + 1.5” total MDF wall thickness) x (12.5” + 1.5” total MDF wall thickness) x 20”] x (1 ft
3
/ 1728
in
3
) = .65 ft
3
, and add this number to the internal volume of the enclosure, CVX12’s 1.75 ft
3
+ .65 ft
3
=
2.40 ft
3
. 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 airflow.
If you prefer an ultra-smooth bass response, you should loosely fill your CompVX enclosure with
poly-fil stuffing. Ported 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-fil from exiting the port. The use of poly-fil
will slightly decrease efficiency, 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. Choose the Technical Manuals link and then download or view
the corresponding information. Please E-mail [email protected] or call Technical Services
(405) 624-8583 for specific or unanswered questions.
Note: The use of a subsonic filter will significantly increase the power handling.
The power handling specifications in these charts are calculated using a 25Hz, 24dB per octave subsonic filter.

policies.
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.
GARANTÍA INTERNACIONAL VersiónEspañol
Comuníquese con su concesionario o distribuidor Kicker internacional para obtener infor ación sobre procedimientos
específicos relacionados con las normas de garantía de su país.
ADVERTENCIA: Los excitadores Kicker son capaces de producir niveles de sonido que pueden dañar
permanentemente el oído. Subir el volumen del sistema hasta un nivel que produzca distorsión es más dañino para el
oído que escuchar un sistema sin distorsión al mismo volumen. El dolor es siempre una indicación de que el sonido es
muy fuerte y que puede dañar permanentemente el oído. Sea precavido cuando controle el volumen.

WARNUNG: KICKER-Treiber können einen Schallpegel erzeugen, der zu permanenten Gehörschäden führen kann!
Wenn Sie ein System auf einen Pegel stellen, der hörbare Verzerrungen erzeugt, schadet das Ihren Ohren mehr, als ein
nicht verzerrtes System auf dem gleichen Lautstärkepegel. Die Schmerzschwelle ist immer eine Anzeige dafür, dass
der Schallpegel zu laut ist und zu permanenten Gehörschäden führen kann. Seien Sie bei der Lautstärkeeinstellung
bitte vernünftig!
Der Slogan "Treibstoff für Livin' Loud" bezieht sich auf die mit den Kicker-Autostereosystemen assoziierte
Lebensfreude und die Tatsache, dass wir unsere Kunden ermutigen, in allen Aspekten ihres Lebens nach dem Besten
("Livin' Loud") zu streben. Die Lautsprecher und Verstärker von Kicker sind auf dem Markt für Auto-Soundsysteme
führend und stellen somit den "Treibstoff" für das Autostereoerlebnis unserer Kunden dar. Wir empfehlen allen unseren

AVERTISSEMENT: Les haut-parleurs Kicker ont la capacité de produire des niveaux sonores pouvant endommager
l'ouïe de façon irréversible ! L'augmentation du volume d'un système jusqu'à un niveau présentant une distorsion
audible endommage davantage l'ouïe que l'écoute d'un système sans distorsion au même volume. Le seuil de la
douleur est toujours le signe que le niveau sonore est trop élevé et risque d'endommager l'ouïe de façon irréversible.
Réglez le volume en faisant prevue de bon sens !
L'expression " carburant pour vivre plein pot " fait référence au dynamisme de la marque Kicker d'équipements audio
pour véhicules et a pour but d'encourager nos clients à faire le maximum (" vivre plein pot ") dans tous les aspects de
