2. Use appropriate screws (not included) to fasten the subwoofer to the enclosure. Do not overtighten.
3. Important: It is recommended to apply a bead of silicone sealant around the subwoofer's mounting flange and the enclosure's terminal cup (both inside and outside) to ensure an airtight seal. This prevents air leaks that can degrade sound quality.
