1. Introducció
This manual provides detailed instructions for the setup, operation, and maintenance of your Alpine S2-W8D2 8-inch S-Series Dual 2 Ohm Car Subwoofer. The S2-W8D2 is designed to deliver powerful and reliable bass performance, enhancing your in-car audio experience.
The subwoofer features a lightweight yet sturdy combination of carbon fiber and polypropylene cone, engineered for deep, low-distortion bass reproduction across diverse music genres.
2. Configuració i instal·lació
Una instal·lació correcta és crucial per a un rendiment òptim i una llarga durada del subwoofer. Es recomana que la instal·lació la realitzi un professional qualificat.
2.1 Desembalatge
Carefully remove the subwoofer from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage during transit. Retain all packaging materials for future use or in case of return.
2.2 Muntatge
The S2-W8D2 is designed for flush mounting. Ensure the mounting location provides adequate clearance for the subwoofer's dimensions (10"D x 10"W x 5.5"H) and allows for proper ventilation. The twist-lock grille mounting system facilitates simple installation and removal of an optional grille, providing protection to the cone.

2.3 Connexions de cablejat
The S2-W8D2 features Dual Voice Coil (DVC) terminals. Proper wiring configuration is essential for matching the subwoofer's impedance to your amplifier's output. Utilize the easy configuration jumpers for series or parallel wiring as required by your amplifier and system design.
- Cablejat de la sèrie: Connect the positive terminal of one voice coil to the negative terminal of the other voice coil. Connect the remaining positive and negative terminals to the amplifier. This increases the total impedance.
- Cablejat paral·lel: Connect both positive terminals together and both negative terminals together. Connect these combined terminals to the amplifier. This decreases the total impedance.
Always ensure secure connections to prevent signal loss or short circuits.

3. Instruccions de funcionament
Once installed and wired correctly, the S2-W8D2 subwoofer is ready for operation. Ensure your amplifier settings are appropriate for the subwoofer's specifications.
3.1 AmpCoincidència de lifier
To maximize the potential of your S2-W8D2 subwoofer, pair it with a power-matched amplifier. The subwoofer has a power handling of 300W RMS and 900W peak.
- For a single S2-W8D2, an amplifier providing approximately 300W RMS at the subwoofer's configured impedance is ideal.
- For two S2-W8D2 subwoofers, an amplifier like the Alpine S2-A60M (600W mono amplifier) is recommended.
- For up to four S2-W8D2 subwoofers, consider the Alpine S2-A120M (1200W amplifier) for optimal sound quality and performance.

3.2 Initial Power-Up and Adjustment
- Assegureu-vos que totes les connexions siguin segures i correctes.
- Turn on your car audio system and ampmés viu.
- Comença amb el amplifier's gain setting at its minimum.
- Play audio at a moderate volume.
- Augmentar gradualment el amplifier's gain until the desired bass level is achieved without distortion.
- Adjust crossover frequencies and phase settings on your amplifier or head unit to blend the subwoofer output seamlessly with your main speakers.
4. Manteniment
The Alpine S2-W8D2 subwoofer requires minimal maintenance to ensure long-term performance.
- Neteja: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the cone and surround. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the speaker components.
- Condicions ambientals: Protect the subwoofer from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, and excessive moisture. While the product is not waterproof, maintaining a stable environment will prolong its lifespan.
- Inspecció: Periodically check all wiring connections for tightness and inspect the cone and surround for any signs of wear or damage.
5. Solució De Problemes
If you experience issues with your S2-W8D2 subwoofer, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Sense so:
- Check all power and signal connections to the ampamplificador i subwoofer.
- Verifiqueu el ampEl lifter està encès i rep un senyal de la unitat principal.
- Assegureu-vos el amplifier's gain is not set to minimum and that the head unit's subwoofer output is enabled.
- Comproveu si hi ha fusibles fundits a la ampcircuit d'alimentació del lifter.
- So distorsionat:
- Reduir el amplifier's gain setting. Excessive gain can cause clipping and distortion.
- Check the input signal level from the head unit; ensure it is not overdriven.
- Verify the subwoofer's impedance matches the amplifier's stable operating impedance.
- Inspect the subwoofer cone and surround for any physical damage.
- Greus febles:
- Augmentar el amplifier's gain or the subwoofer level on your head unit.
- Adjust the low-pass filter (LPF) setting on your amplifier or head unit. A higher LPF frequency allows more mid-bass to pass through.
- Check the phase setting. Incorrect phase can cause bass cancellation.
- Ensure the subwoofer is properly enclosed in an appropriate enclosure type and volume.
If problems persist after following these steps, consult a qualified car audio technician.
