When it is more convenient to mount the enclosure along a
side wall, put the enclosure on the right side of the vehicle as
outlined in Figure B. This orientation will make the vent point
toward the rear of the vehicle and will produce the most low bass
output. Remember to leave at least four inches of room between
the enclosure and the back of the vehicle.

DCVR Series vented enclosures combine KICKER’s award
winning CompVR 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 DCVR Series enclosures
are available with pre-loaded 10 or 12 inch CompVR
subwoofers.

After determining the best mounting position, carefully check
the areas where the mounting brackets will be placed. 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. Turn the enclosure upside-down, pre-drill
the holes using a 7/64” (2.5 mm) bit and attach the four mounting
brackets to the bottom of the enclosure using the supplied
smaller screws. Each bracket must be positioned so the rounded
end protrudes approximately 3/4" (2 cm) from under the cabinet
to allow a screw to easily pass through the bracket, securing the
enclosure to the vehicle.

To get all the amazing performance potential from your new
enclosure, you need to follow some basic rules. Please read
these instructions carefully. Then, you will be ready to install the
subwoofer enclosure and be on the road and “Livin’ Loud™”.
Enclosure Width, in (cm)
The location and orientation of your DCVR enclosure will affect
the quality and quantity of the bass. Designed for use in SUVs
and sedan type vehicles, the DCVR enclosure offers you several
mounting options.
Front mounting, speaker faces rear of vehicle
Figure A
Figure B
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.
At least 4”
The vent opening in these enclosures 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 (10 cm)
of clear space around the vent.

With the enclosure right side up, securely attach it to the
vehicle with the supplied larger screws.
If the enclosure is to be mounted all the way in the back of the
vehicle, it works best to point the woofer toward the front of the
vehicle. Conversely, if the enclosure is going to be mounted
closer to the back seat, pointing the woofer toward the rear of the
vehicle will give you the best results. These guidelines pertain to
enclosures mounted in the vehicle as outlined in Figure A.
At least 4”
If the supplied hardware is not applicable to your installation,
some other means of securely attaching the enclosure to the
vehicle must be used.
Rear mounting, speaker faces front of vehicle
Measurements are based on the 4 ohm enclosures. Note: The use of a subsonic filter will significantly increase the powerhandling.
Note: To get the best performance from your CompVR Subwoofer Enclosure, we recommend using genuine Kicker Accessories and Wiring.
The power handling specifications in this chart are calculated using a 25 Hz, 24 dB per octave subsonic filter.

that can permanently damage your hearing! Turning up a

damaging to your ears than listening to an undistorted
