INSTALLATION
Note: The use of a subsonic filter will significantly increase the power handling. The power handling specifications in these charts are
calculated using a 25Hz, 24dB per octave subsonic filter. Measurements based on 4 ohm voice coil models. All specifications and
performance figures are subject to change. Please visit the www.kicker.com for the most current information.
PERFORMANCE
TCVented
The TC Series vented enclosure combines KICKER’s award winning line of subwoofers with computer-
modeled and human fine-tuned enclosures to offer a level of bass performance never before thought
possible from a commercially available, ready-to-install subwoofer system. The TC Series enclosure is
available with a pre-loaded 10 inch Comp.
The Kicker TC Series enclosure is designed to fit behind the seat of a pickup truck, coupe or wherever
space is limited. This design is engineered to provide the best bass response when firing into the back
of the seat. The vent opening in this enclosure can not be obstructed. At some frequencies most of the
bass will come out of the vent. Therefore we recommend you leave at least four inches (10cm) of clear
space around the vent.
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 amplifier in accordance with
its owner's manual.
