IMPORTANT SAFETY
WARNING Prolonged continuous operation of an amplifi er, speaker, or subwoofer in a distorted, clipped or overpowered manner can cause your audio system to overheat, possibly catching fi re and resulting in serious damage to your components and/or vehicle. Amplifi ers require up to 4 inches (10cm) of open ventilation. Subwoofers should be mounted with at least 1 inch (2.5cm) clearance between the front of the speaker and any surface.
CHECK THE LOAD
The L7T subwoofer enclosures are available in 2 or 4-ohm impedance models. Check to see if your amplifi er is optimized to drive the load of your L7T enclosure.

L7T ENCLOSURES

The L7T-series enclosures combine KICKER’s award-winning line of subwoofers with computer-modeled and human fi returned enclosures to offer a level of bass performance never before thought possible from a commercially available, ready-to-install subwoofers system. The TL7T8 enclosure features an 8-inch L7T subwoofer, the TL7T10features a 10-inch L7T Subwoofer, and the TL7T12 enclosure features a 12-inch L7T subwoofer.
Plug your subwoofer speaker wire into the terminals using the red connector as positive and the black connector as negative. Connect the other end of the wire to your subwoofer amplifi er in accordance with its owner’s manual.
Sound Check: Poor bass response? Check the system phasing by reversing the positive and negative speaker connections on the subwoofer. If the bass improves, then the subwoofer was out of phase in reference to the rest of the audio system.
Pro Tip: With a KICKER KXA amplifi er, a pair of KICKER KSC speakers, and a few KICKER cables, you’re looking at a full system upgrade that will dominate! KICKER amplifi ers, speakers, and accessories make it easy to upgrade with your existing or stock source unit. Ask your dealer about KICKER amplifi ers and speaker upgrades to complete your system!

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING

To avoid potential injury or possible death from forwarding movement of the enclosure during abrupt stops or accidents, the enclosure must be properly installed and securely fastened to your vehicle. You are solely responsible for securely fastening the enclosure in your vehicle. Make sure the mounting screws will not puncture the gas tank/brake lines/wiring or interfere with any mechanical parts on the underside of the mounting surface.

When purchased from an Authorized KICKER Dealer, KICKER warrants this product to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use for a period of ONE (1) YEAR from the date of original purchase. If this product is identifi ed as “Refurbished” or “B Goods”, the warranty is limited to a period of THREE (3) MONTHS from the date of original purchase. In all cases, you must have the original receipt. Should service be necessary under this warranty for any reason due to manufacturing defect or malfunction during the warranty period, KICKER will repair or replace (at its discretion) the defective merchandise with equivalent merchandise. Warranty replacements may have cosmetic scratches and blemishes. Discontinued products may be replaced with more current equivalent products. This warranty is valid only for the original purchaser and is not extended to owners of the product subsequent to the original purchaser. Any applicable implied warranties are limited in duration to a period of the express warranty as provided herein beginning with the date of the original purchase at retail, and no warranties, whether express or implied, shall apply to this product thereafter. Some states do not allow limitations on implied warranties; therefore, these exclusions may not apply to you.

Defective merchandise should be returned to your local Authorized Stillwater Designs (KICKER) Dealer for warranty service. Assistance in locating an Authorized Dealer can be found at www.kicker.com or by contacting Stillwater Designs directly. You can confi rm that a dealer is authorized by asking to see a currently authorized dealer window decal.
