Congratulations. You have just purchased one of the car audio world’s pre-

mier subwoofers. KICKER® Solo-Baric™ D-Series subwoofer’s unique design

delivers all the performance advantages of isobaric pair enclosure technolo-

gy in a single driver. The result is truly incredible levels of bass using enclo-

sures only half the size of traditional boxes.

SOLO-BARIC™

D-SERIES SUBWOOFERS

SOLO-BARIC FEATURES

Every element of the Solo-Baric’s design is optimized for accurate reproduction of bass

and sub-bass frequencies. The Solo-Baric has one of the most massive moving structures

in speaker design history, yet it still has the ultra-low distortion and lightning-fast transient

response essential for critical bass reproduction. New to the D-Series is the Solo-Baric

hemispherical cone, KICKER's most distortion-resistant cone technology to date. Voice coils

are made from ribbon copper wire, wound in multiple layers on black Kapton® formers for

superior heat-dissipation. The rest of the motor structure incorporates design/perform-

ance features that make Solo-Barics world-famous for performance and

durability...UniPlate™ construction, one-piece extended pole, deep-bump backplate,

stitched surround, heavy-duty terminals, high-power PVC-sleeved speaker leads, and more.

Additional Solo-Baric Performance Enhancements:

• Cast aluminum basket for superior support and great looks

• Flat progressive-roll spider for superior control and linearity

• Perimeter Venting to release pressures between spider and top plate

• Heavy-duty nickel-plated terminals for positive connections

POWER HANDLING

Power handling ratings on Solo-Baric subwoofers reflect the largest power amplifiers

suitable for use on each model. We feel this rating is more useful to you than misleading

“music power”, “continuous”, or other ratings often used.

The power ratings refer to the speaker’s ability to dissipate heat from the voice coil,

not the mechanical limits of cone excursion. Because the enclosure largely controls cone

travel, we have provided enclosure designs that will best prevent problems due to cone

over-excursion.

The minimum power rating suggests the least amount of RMS power per driver we

recommend when designing a system using Solo-Barics. Too little power can result in low

output and distorted sound. We recommend using as much power as possible, up to the

maximum power ratings listed in the Specifications section.
