Owner's Manual

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
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.
