WOOFER BREAK-IN?
SUPER IMPORTANT FOR BEST PERFORMANCE!

Giving your new subwoofer a few hours of break in will let the spiders loosen up
and allow for higher excursion and the ability to play lower frequencies. Along
with your T/S parameters changing once the woofer is fully broken in, you are
less likely to damage the coil as it will move more freely in the gap which allows
for better cooling and less build up of heat. All GOOD things!!!!

VC adjustment should only be used for professional
SPL usage. It should not be adjusted further than the
indicated 2mm. Failure to do so will void warranty.
Turning the VC adjustment all the way down (over
300 degrees) could cause bottoming
NOTE: MAX Rotation is 300 degress!!!
VC adjustment changes the subwoofer from a
