INTRODUCTION TO HoLeeS-15
Recommended Power For One Subwoofer
B l u e ( M i n i m u m ) :
If you are powering your sub in this
range, it will operate comfortably
with zero strain or fatigue. Power
ranges this low will not damage
your speaker, but it wont capture
the Subzero full capabilities.
Y e l l o w ( O p t i m i z e d ) :
This zone represents the best
compromise between long-term
reliability, high-output and low-
distortion. If you are operating your
subwoofer in this range you are
taking advantage of the best low
distortion and sound quality that the
Subzero is capable of delivering
between the recommended power.
R e d ( M a x i m u m ) :
In this zone low-distortion and
s o u n d q u a l i t y b e c o m e
compromised. A small amount of
SPL can be gained in this zone, but
only a couple of dB. Remember that
the more you travel out of the
recommended power range the
greater the chances of failure and
warranty rejection. Be wise and use
extreme caution and care with your
speakers.
B l a c k ( D O N ’ T ) :
In this zone the chances of failure
are almost inevitable. When
exposed to excessive heat and/ or
mechanical stress the driver will
loose sound quality, SPL and could
seriously damage the driver or you
vehicle.
SUBWOOFERS OPERATED IN
THIS ZONE WILL NOT BE
COVERED BY WARRANTY.
