Manual
The KICKER CompVT subwoofer enclosures were specially designed to fi t in small spaces such as
behind truck seats or inside compact trunks. The CompVT subwoofer, with its ultra-thin profi le, provides
high-performance bass despite its dramatic size reduction over normal KICKER subwoofers.
CHECK THE LOAD
The CompVT subwoofer enclosures are internally wired for a 2 or 4 ohm load at the speaker-wire
connection terminal. Please refer to this terminal or the box packaging for your enclosure’s specifi c
impedance. Make sure your amplifi er is optimized to drive this load.
TCVT SEALED
The TCVT-series sealed enclosures combine KICKER’s award-winning line of subwoofers with computer-
modeled and human fi ne-tuned enclosures to offer a level of bass performance never before thought
possible from a commercially available, ready-to-install subwoofer system. The TCVT8 enclosure features
an 8 inch CompVT subwoofer.
The KICKER TCVT-series enclosure is designed to fi t behind or under the seat of a pickup truck, coupe,
or wherever space is limited. This design is engineered to provide the best bass response when fi ring into
the back of a seat, into the bottom of a seat from underneath, or straight upward.
Plug your subwoofer speaker wire into the terminals using the red connector as positive and the black
connector as negative. Hook the other end of the wire to your subwoofer amplifi er in accordance with its
owner’s manual.
