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.

To

we

reach
optimum performance.
WIRING
Solo-Baric
L7
subwoofers are available with dual
20
(ohm) or dual
40
voice coils. Both coils must be
connected to a source of amplification. The dual
20
woofer will generate a
10
load
if
the coils are wired
in
parallel or a
40
load
in
series. The dual
40
woofer will provide a
20
load wired
in
parallel or
80
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 Figure
1.
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.

Use 3/4"
(1
.9cm) or thicker MDF (medium density fiberboard) and seal the joints with silicone. Use the
"template" inside your Solo Baric'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 3.
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 L7S12 vented Minimum design's external port dimensions
are,
using 3/4"
(1
.9cm) MDF: [ (13.25"
+
1.5" total MDF wall thickness) x (2.5"

and add this number to the internal volume of the enclosure, L7S12's 1.75
ft
3 +
.77
ft
3 =
2.52
ft3.
See
Figure 4.
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 oorts for these designs.
3
Do not install a port opening against a solid surtace, 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 surtace to insure unrestricted airtlow.
If
you prefer
an
ultra-smooth bass response, you should loosely
fill
your
L7
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.

The Solo-Baric generates more sound pressure
than
an
equivalently-sized round speaker 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 Solo-Baric high performance suspension
system can operate
in
a larger sealed
enclosure. This maximum enclosure volume
application
is
ideal for SO (ultra sound quality)
installations. The Maximum enclosure generates
a very flat response curve and superbly extends
the sub-bass response.
c
/
~"-------"
Solo-Baric woofers perform well
in
any size sealed enclosure between the Minimum and Maximum
volume recommendations. These systems will exhibit benefits 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 filled to 50% loose poly-
fil
(polyester fiberfill) stuffing. Do not make the airspace greater than the SO, maximum enclosure volume,
recommendation.
VENTED
ENCLOSURE
APPLICATIONS
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 Solo-Baric
L7,
try one of these ported
designs.
You
will not be disappointed. Solo-Baric 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 ported Minimum design increases bass efficiency and fits
in
many space-limited applications.
Although
it
is
the smallest recommended ported enclosure, the output from
30
to
80Hz
will be
considerably higher than that of any sealed box. The Maximum ported design has even more output
in
this crucial frequency band. The Maximum
is
the largest and most efficient enclosure design.
