Crossover Mounting, Wiring Crossover Connections

CROSSOVER MOUNTING

When choosing the mounting location of the crossover, accessibility is important. Adjustments to the on-/off-axis setting and tweeter attenuation are to be made after the components have been installed, so convenient positioning of the crossover is crucial. Also, the crossover has electronic components that must be mounted so it does not come in contact with moisture.

WIRING

When installing these separates consider the age of the factory wiring and gauge (size) of wire. If the vehicle is an older model or was pre-wired with small wire (18 gauge or less), running new high performance wire (http://www.streetwires.com/products/speakerCable/microUltraCable.cfm) will be necessary. The speaker wire should run from the ampliﬁer’s output terminals, under the carpet and through the factory rubber boot (loom) that protects the wires in the inner door jam. If the factory boot cannot be used, take other measures to protect these wires as best you can. Sometimes the door has to be completely removed to use the factory boot. If this is something that you do not feel comfortable doing, please ask a professional to help you. The wires should originate from the ampli- ﬁer and attach to the crossover inputs.

CROSSOVER CONNECTIONS

Included with each TXC component system is a 2-way 18dB (tweeter)/12dB (midrange) octave separate crossover network. The crossover networks allow each driver within the component system to independently recreate frequencies within a precisely-designed range so that the speakers do not become distorted by trying to reproduce frequencies that they are not physically able to. This network ensures that the tweeter does not receive low bass notes and the mid-bass driver does

not receive high frequencies. The 18dB (tweeter)/12dB (mid) octave design complements both the tweeter and mid and provides greater musical detail.

Note: Pay close attention to the markings on the crossover to be certain the correct speakers are in the correct outlet. If a tweeter is accidentally asked to play the frequencies reserved for a mid-bass driver, it will be damaged.

BI-AMP CONFIGURATION

These crossovers feature Bi-amp connections so that the components can be wired to drive the tweeter and midrange independently using two ampliﬁers. When using the components in the Bi- Amp conﬁguration you are going to need two stereo amps or one four channel amp to run a pair of components. You will need to remove the Bi-amp jumpers from the input connection points of the crossover. Connect the desired amp or channels to the tweeter input. The second ampliﬁer, or third and fourth channels of the 4-channel ampliﬁer, will be connected to the woofer input on the cross- over. When the crossover is set up in this conﬁguration, the ﬁnal load will be 4 ohms.

Note: It is important to make sure the gain of each ampliﬁer is matched. Final gain level adjustments should be made using the crossover settings.
