The Bazooka Bass Tubes enclosure is designed for optimal performance when "corner loaded." This means placing the subwoofer in a corner of your vehicle, such as the rear corner of a trunk or hatchback, or behind the seat in a truck. This placement utilizes the vehicle's interior acoustics to amplify the bass output.

The gain control adjusts the input sensitivity of the amplifier. Start with the gain set to minimum and slowly increase it until the bass output blends seamlessly with your main speakers without distortion. Avoid setting the gain too high, as this can lead to distorted sound and potential damage.
