Overview

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING

PROLONGED CONTINUOUS OPERATION OF AN AMPLIFIER, SPEAKER, OR

SUBWOOFER IN A DISTORTED, CLIPPED OR OVER-POWERED MANNER

CAN CAUSE YOUR AUDIO SYSTEM TO OVERHEAT, POSSIBLY CATCHING

FIRE AND RESULTING IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPONENTS

AND/OR VEHICLE. AMPLIFIERS REQUIRE UP TO 4 INCHES (10CM) OPEN

VENTILATION. SUBWOOFERS SHOULD BE MOUNTED WITH AT LEAST 1

INCH (2.5CM) CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE FRONT OF THE SPEAKER AND

ANY SURFACE. 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.

The KICKER CompC-Series are the

classic that never goes out of style. We’ve

introduced our latest technology, Forced

Air Cooling™, for maximum efﬁciency and

product longevity from a 20% reduction in

heat, while offering 8, 10, 12 and 15 inch

subs with a choice of Dual or Single voice

coils so that you always have the perfect

subwoofer to meet your needs or ﬁt in your

vehicle. For peak performance and sound

quality, use these subwoofers with KICKER

accessories and amps to get the best

results.

Speciﬁcations

Note: All speciﬁcations and performance ﬁgures are

subject to change. Please visit

www.kicker.com for the most current information.

To get the best performance from your new KICKER

speakers, we recommend using genuine KICKER

accessories and wiring. Please allow two weeks of

break-in time for the speakers to reach optimum

performance.

Pro Tip: You’re a KICKER ampliﬁer and a few cables

away from a full system upgrade that will dominate

any factory system! KICKER line of ampliﬁers make

it easy to upgrade to solid bass with your existing

or stock source unit. Also, ask your dealer about

KICKER Speaker upgrades.

Wiring Conﬁguration

CompC-Series subwoofers are made

with single and dual 4Ω voice coils. Voice

coils must be connected to a source of

ampliﬁcation. The dual voice coil models

will provide a 2Ω load wired in parallel or

8Ω load wired in series. Make sure your

source unit or ampliﬁer is rated at the

correct ohm load for operation.

The speaker wire should be kept away

from sharp edges and avoid the possibility

of getting pinched by the trunk. If a factory

hole and grommet do not exist or are

inaccessible, you must drill a hole through

which to run the wire. Be careful not to drill

into other wiring or existing mechanisms.

Any time a wire is run through a hole, it

is necessary to insert a rubber or plastic

grommet to protect the wire from damage.

Box Building Notes

Use 3/4” (1.9cm) or thicker MDF (medium

density ﬁberboard) and seal the joints with

silicone. Use the “template” inside your

CompC subwoofer’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.

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 CompC12

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

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.

8English

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.

You can loosely ﬁll your 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 by

making your subwoofer think it’s in a bigger

box.

9English

Add triangular bracing between each of the

larger unsupported panels.

Sealed Enclosures

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 CompC-Series 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 Maximum

enclosure generates a very ﬂat response

curve and superbly extends the sub-bass

response.
