          •  (4) Rubber feet
 

Subwoofer Placement

The Hardscape subwoofer provides low frequency bass 
covering up to 2500 sq. feet or about a 30’ radius. 
Whenever possible try to locate it in the middle of the 
listening area. The included rubber feet gives you the 
flexibilty to place it in many locations by helping level and 
stabilize the sub on uneven surfaces.

70V Installation Basics

When installing the sub as 70v, make sure the total tap 
setting wattage does NOT exceed 80% of the amp’s rated 
power.

Finding the Correct Amp Size

AMP POWER x 80% = SAFE

1000W x 80% = 800W
800W ÷ 200W = 4 Subwoofers

Summary:

 If using a 1000 watt per channel amplifier like 

the CDi 4000, you can use (4) 200W Hardscape 

subwoofers (HS-SUB-12).
