and alignment. Also, review the wiring diagrams (on

the back page) on how to connect the subwoofer for

2-ohm, 8-ohm, and summed-mono applications.

Each Infinity Beta Twelve.dvc 12" Dual Voice-Coil

Subwoofer is covered by our limited parts and labor

warranty (see the enclosed warranty card). Keep

your original dated bill of sale in case warranty ser-

vice is required.

IMPORTANT: Installation of automotive stereo

components can require extensive experience in

dealing with a variety of electrical, and

mechanical procedures, including subwoofer

box building. Although these instructions

explain how to install a Beta Subwoofer in a

general sense, they do not show the exact instal-

lation methods for your particular vehicle. If

you do not have the experience, do not attempt

the installation yourself; instead ask your

Authorized Infinity Car Audio Dealer about

professional installation options.

PRECAUTIONS

• Always wear protective eyewear when using tools.

• Turn off all audio systems and other electrical

devices before starting the installation.

• Disconnect the (–) negative lead from your vehi-

cle’s battery.

• Locate and note all fuel lines, hydraulic brake

lines, and electrical wiring. Use extreme caution

when cutting or drilling in and around these areas.

• Check clearances on both sides of a planned

mounting surface before drilling any holes or

installing any screws.

to create a net 4-ohm impedance. NEVER USE

METHOD #2, since most amplifiers cannot fully

S E TUBWOOFER NCLOSURE RADE OFFS-

Subwoofer enclosures are classified as sealed (acoustic

suspension) or ported (bass-reflex), and can be built in

many configurations. Here we discuss three popular box

types and encourage you to compare their response

curves, noting the differences in Beta Twelve.dvc output

level and frequency response versus volume in sealed,

vented, and single-reflex band-pass enclosures.

A sealed enclosure is the smallest and simplest to build,

with high power handling, good phase coherence, and

the most predictable response, at the expense of some-

what diminished sound output. If amplifier power is not

a concern, this is the best choice for most systems, pro-

viding the highest output at the lowest frequencies.

A vented enclosure adds a port (or vent) tuned to the

speaker’s resonance in the box to help boost sound out-

put by “tuning” the rear sound waves so they add to the

front ones. It is more efficient than a sealed box above

the tuned frequency, but more difficult to build properly.

For frequencies below the tuned range, output is less-

ened due to sound cancellation, and there is a 180-

degree phase shift at the tuned frequency. Other draw-

backs are the increased box size for the added port and

diminished power handling due to woofer over-excur-

sion at frequencies below the tuned frequency.

A single-reflex band-pass enclosure counteracts the

sound cancellation properties in vented designs by iso-

lating the subwoofer from the port within its own enclo-

sure. It offers higher power handling, and an automatic

band-pass response to help roll off higher frequencies.

However, it has a 180-degree phase shift at the tuned

frequency. Also, complexity and size are increased, due to

separate front and rear chambers, and it requires

adding substantial midbass drivers elsewhere in the car.

We recommend a sealed enclosure for the Beta

Twelve.dvc. Depending on your taste in music, you can

select a box volume for a flat, enhanced, or extended

bass response (see graphs on right). The flat response is

optimum for all enclosures and types of music. The

enhanced sealed box provides a “tighter” bass, great for

rock and rap. An enhanced vented box has increased

output, but with diminished transient response and

power handling. The extended sealed box is more effi-

cient at the lowest frequencies, providing added bass

boost for jazz and classical music, but with diminished

power handling. The extended response curve provides

the best power handling for vented enclosures.
