L5 SOLO-BARICSUBWOOFERENCLOSURE DS12L5, DS10L5, VS12L5, TS10L5 ©2007 Stillwater Designs Solo-BaricL5Subwoofer EnclosureOwner’sManual Models: Congratulations on your KICKER purchase Please record your purchase information and keep your sales receipt for validation of warranty. Figure 1 At least 4” (10cm) from the vent DS12L5 / DS10L5 / VS12L5 / TS10L5 Authorized Kicker Dealer: _________________________ Purchase Date: _________________________ Enclosure Model Number: _________________________ Enclosure Serial Number: _________________________ Rear mounting, speaker faces front of vehicle Front of Vehicle DS/VSVented CONFIGURATION The DS and VS Series vented enclosures combine KICKER’s award winning Solo-Baric subwoofers with computer-modeled and human fine-tuned enclosures to offer a level of bass performance never before thought possible from a commercially available, ready-toinstall subwoofer system. The DS Series enclosures are available with a pre-loaded pair of 10 or 12 inch Solo-Baric L5, and the VS Series has a 12 inch Solo-Baric L5. The location and orientation of your enclosure will affect the quality and quantity of the bass. Designed for use in SUV and sedan type vehicles, these enclosures offer you several mounting options. The vent opening in these enclosures can not be obstructed. At some frequencies most of the bass will come out of the vent. Therefore we recommend you leave at least four inches (10cm) of clear space around the vent. 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. Figure 2 If the enclosure is to be mounted all the way in the back of the vehicle, it works best to point the woofer toward the front of the vehicle. Conversely, if the enclosure is going to be mounted closer to the back seat, pointing the woofer toward the rear of the vehicle will give you the best results. These guidelines pertain to enclosures mounted in the vehicle as outlined in Figure 1. If it is more convenient to mount the enclosure along a side wall, put the enclosure on the left side of the vehicle as outlined in Figure 2. This orientation will make the vent point toward the rear of the vehicle and will produce the most low bass output. Remember to leave at least four inches (10cm) of room between the enclosure and the back of the vehicle. After determining the best mounting position, carefully check the areas where the mounting brackets will be placed. Make sure the mounting screws will not puncture the gas tank, brake lines, wiring, or interfere with any mechanical parts on the underside of the mounting surface. Turn the enclosure upside-down, pre-drill the holes using a 7/64” (2.5mm) bit and attach the four mounting brackets to the bottom of the enclosure using the supplied smaller 2 Front mounting, speaker faces rear of vehicle At least 4” (10cm) from the vent The Solo-Baric subwoofer enclosures are internally wired for a 2 or 4 ohm load at the speaker-wire connection terminal.
