Wiring Options
Cutout Dimensions
Solo-Baric L5 subwoofers are available with dual 2 Ω (ohm) or
dual 4 Ω voice coils. Both coils must be connected to a source of
amplification.
The dual 2 Ω woofer will generate a 1 Ω load if the coils are
wired in parallel or a 4 Ω load in series. The dual 4 Ω woofer will
provide a 2 Ω load wired in parallel or 8 Ω load wired in series.
The terminals with solid red and black markings are for one
voice coil. The terminals with the white dots are for the second
voice coil.
