Usage Features:

• Installation: While DIY installation is possible with careful reading of the manual, professional installation by an authorized Cerwin Vega Mobile dealer is highly recommended. This ensures proper assembly, speaker placement, and optimal sound quality.
• Enclosure Recommendations: The manual provides specifications for both sealed and ported enclosures to optimize performance.
  • HS102/4D (10-inch):
    • Sealed Enclosure: Volume (net int.) 0.65 ft³ (18.2 litres), External Dimensions 22" x 12" x 6.75" (406mm x 305mm x 162mm).
    • Ported Enclosure: Volume (net int.) N/A, External Dimensions N/A, Slot Port Internal Dimensions N/A, Port Extension Length N/A.
  • HS122/4D (12-inch):
    • Sealed Enclosure: Volume (net int.) 0.85 ft³ (23.8 litres), External Dimensions 22" x 14.75" x 7" (508mm x 381mm x 175mm).
    • Ported Enclosure: Volume (net int.) N/A, External Dimensions N/A, Slot Port Internal Dimensions N/A, Port Extension Length N/A.
• Power Handling Guidelines:
  • Minimum RMS Power (100W Black Area): This power level increases the longevity of the woofer but reduces output volume.
  • Recommended RMS Power (200W Green Area): This is the optimum power level for a balance of output volume and woofer longevity.
  • Maximum RMS Power (300W Red Area): This is the maximum safe operating power. Exceeding this level can void the warranty and provides only a moderate volume increase.
• Woofer Break-In: After wiring, it is crucial to break in the subwoofer. Play the sub at low to medium volume with music containing good low-frequency information for approximately 20 hours. This conditions the subwoofer, improving its performance and lifespan.

Maintenance Features:

• Warranty: Cerwin Vega Mobile offers a one (1) year limited warranty on its speakers, covering defects in materials and workmanship for the original purchaser from an authorized dealer.
• Warranty Exclusions: The warranty does not cover damage from abuse, accident, misuse, neglect, modifications, repair attempts, seller/installer misrepresentation, incidental/consequential/cosmetic damage, or removal/reinstallation costs. The warranty is void if the serial number is removed or defaced.
