Coaxial Speaker Owner’s Manual

BASIC INSTALLATION Selecting the placement of your new R Coaxial speakers could be as easy as using the existing factory locations or may require you to create a new location. Speaker placement in the door, dash, or rear deck is the most common. See your local Phoenix Gold Dealer for additional location and mounting assistance.

SPEAKER INSTALLATION WITHOUT GRILL

Phoenix Gold has provided a foam mounting gasket. When installing your new component speakers in a factory location make sure to use the foam mounting gasket as shown in figure 1. For reverse mounted speakers place the foam gasket in front of the speaker. This will ensure an air tight seal for your R speakers.

DOORS /REAR DECK

1.Many vehicles already have factory locations (Figure 1) to house the “DROP IN” feature of the R Coaxial speakers. If no existing locations are available or are not used, check the desired location for adequate cutout area and any depth obstructions. Make sure to allow sufficient clearance for window tracks, structural braces, trunk lid springs, etc.

2.Assuming enough area and depth is available, use the provided template and trace the speaker cutout and mounting holes onto the surface of the mounting location.

3.If the mounting surface is not structurally strong enough to accommodate screws, (i.e. plastic, cardboard) use the pro vided speed clips which will act as a nut for the supplied screws.

4.Always provide water protection, if not supplied in the vehicle. We suggest using a rain shield or equivalent. If in doubt, please contact your Phoenix Gold Dealer.

For more custom applications, or cases where the factory grill will not be used, a high excursion protective grill has been provided. When installing your new component speakers with the provided R grill use figure 2.
