Driver:

• GRS 8SW-4HE 8 High Excursion Subwoofer

Enclosure Components:

• Baffle
• 2 x Side Panel
• Back Panel
• 2 x Top/Bottom Panel
• Brace

Enclosure Assembly:

1. First, before gluing anything, do a dry fit of the enclosure to
   familiarize yourself with the parts and assembly. This will also
   give you a chance to ensure that all pieces have been cut
   properly.
2. Next, set the enclosure parts out on a flat level surface and
   ensure that all pieces are free of dust and debris.
3. Start with the Back Panel (B) lying flat with the rabbeted side
   up, as shown.
4. Apply a small bead of glue to the inside of all joining
   surfaces of the Back Panel (B) and one Top/Bottom panel (E). Then
   set in place applying enough pressure to ensure glue is spread
   through each joint (some glue squeeze-out can be expected).
5. Apply a small bead of glue to the inside of all joining
   surfaces of one Side Panel (F) and the back and top/bottom panel
   assembly. Then set in place applying enough pressure to ensure glue
   is spread through each joint (some glue squeeze-out can be
   expected).
6. Apply a small bead of glue to the inside of all joining
   surfaces of the Brace (E) and the back, top/bottom, and side panel
   assembly. Then slide in place applying enough pressure to ensure
   glue is spread through each joint (some glue squeeze-out can be
   expected).
7. Apply a small bead of glue to the inside of all joining
   surfaces of the other Side Panel (F) and the enclosure assembly.
   Then set in place applying enough pressure to ensure glue is spread
   through each joint (some glue squeeze-out can be expected).
8. Apply a small bead of glue to the inside of all joining
   surfaces of the other Top/Bottom Panel (E) and the enclosure
   assembly. Then set in place applying enough pressure to ensure glue
   is spread through each joint (some glue squeeze-out can be
   expected).
9. Apply a small bead of glue to the inside of all joining
   surfaces of the Baffle (E) and the enclosure assembly. Then set in
   place applying enough pressure to ensure glue is spread through
   each joint (some glue squeeze-out can be expected).
10. Make sure that all edges are flush and securely apply clamps
    from side to side, top to bottom, and front to back. Apply ample
    pressure to ensure glue is spread evenly through each joint (some
    glue squeeze-out can be expected). Visually inspect all seams to
    make sure they are all closed tightly, you may need to relocate
    clamps (or add more clamps) to get a perfect fit. In most cases
    only 6 clamps will be needed for an enclosure this size.

Congratulations! You have now assembled the Passive GRS 8SW-4HE
8 mini subwoofer kit. Connect the driver as per the wiring diagram
provided in the package. Install the subwoofer kit in your desired
location and enjoy the high-quality sound.

11) Wipe away any glue squeeze-out on the outside of the enclosure with a damp rag or paper towel (excess glue on the inside is fine). Allow to dry according to the glue manufacturer’s recommendations and remove clamps.
12) Finally, fill any open seams with wood filler or a mixture of sawdust and wood glue. Then sand all surfaces and seams until smooth. Finish enclosure to your liking. See our web page for ideas and examples.
