Basically, your trunkbox subwoofer is designed to be placed
in the trunk compartment of your car. The terminal binding
posts allow quick and easy installation or removal of the trunk
box – if necessary.
Only start doing adjustments of the amps or headunits
lowpass filter or the input gain, after setting „treble“, „bass“
and „loudness“ controls on the head unit to neutral/zero
position.
Your bandpass subwoofer needs a low-pass filtered signal
with 12dB/oct. slope for best sound quality.
➞
Connect the speaker wire of your subwoofer amp channel
terminal of the subwoofer system.
➞
Set the lowpass crossover frequency of the channel(s)
driving the sub to approx. 80 Hz.
➞
Increase the input gain of the subwoofer channel, until bass
output is full sounding and loud enough.
➞
Turn down the volume and try both electrical in-phase and
out-of-phase polarity connections to find the one giving
you more bass quantity and quality.
„In-phase“ connection of your subwoofer is critical – if your
sub plays out of phase, the output at the crossover frequency
region will be depressed due to cancellation effects.
Thus one connection polarity will give you a „fuller“ and more
dynamic bass reproduction in the 80Hz range.
