All specifications are subject to change without notice.
• The enclosure recommendations listed are
external
dimensions which assume the use of
3/4" (19mm)
thick material. If you are using
5/8"
(16mm)
thick material, subtract
1/4" (6.5mm)
from
each dimension. Do not use any material with a
thickness of less than
5/8" (16mm)
as this may
compromise the rigidity of the enclosure.
•
All enclosure volumes listed are net internal
volumes!
Box volume displacement, port
displacement and brace displacement must be
added to obtain the final gross internal volume. All
enclosure dimensions listed have already taken this
into account.
• When using
two
subwoofers in a common
enclosure simply
double
the required volume and,
in the case of a ported enclosure, use
two times
the recommended port(s).
• We recommend the use of this speaker in a
bi-amplified system
using high-quality
satellite speakers and amplifiers. We do not
recommend the use of this subwoofer with a
passive crossover (coil)
, as this type of device will
adversely affect performance.

UTION

Prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels in excess of 100dB can cause permanent hearing loss. This high-performance
speaker can exceed this level. Please exercise restraint in its operation in order to preserve your ability to enjoy its fidelity.
When installing a subwoofer in your vehicle, it is extremely important to secure the enclosure firmly. We recommend
bolting the enclosure through the metal of the floorpan or the frame of the vehicle with large diameter washers
for reinforcement. If an enclosure is not firmly attached, it can become a projectile in a collision. This is particularly
important in a hatchback, station wagon, sports utility vehicle, or van.
A Ported/Vented enclosure is NOT RECOMMENDED
for the 13TW5-3 Subwoofer Driver.
