SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR BUILT-IN INSTALLATIONS
Fathom subwoofers are designed to be "built-in" friendly. All typically
needed controls are located on the front panel above the woofer. A Fathom can
be easily integrated into custom cabinetry by following a few simple guidelines.
1) Allow 4 inches (10 cm) of clear space behind the Fathom's amp panel for
adequate cooling and connector clearance.
2) On all other sides (except the bottom), allow at least 2 inches
(5 cm) clearance for adequate ventilation.
3) While the Fathom generally runs only warm during spirited operation, we do
recommend that adequate heat vents are included in any custom cabinet which
encloses the Fathom. Pairs of 3 inch (7.5 cm) diameter vents over the full cabinet
height (8 vents total, see diagram) will allow cool air to circulate over the amp
panel of your Fathom f212 subwoofer system keeping it cool and happy.
4) Your Fathom f212 subwoofer is capable of moving substantial quantities
of air. If the front of the f212 is covered by a custom grille, the grille
must have AT LEAST 170 square inches (1100 sq. cm.) of vent area. Th is
grill area is equal to the woofer cone area for the f212 and will ensure
that the Fathom's output is not choked by the custom cabinet.
