INSTALLATION TIPS

Any speaker will only perform to its best capabilities, when correctly placed in the listening area. FUSION Engineers recognise that unlike a home or motor vehicle installation, there are an extremely wide range of marine environments where speakers may be placed.

FUSION MS-BX3020 full range marine speakers are optimised and tuned to work perfectly with the MS-AB1060R Active Subwoofer with a 2 channel speaker amplifier which not only powers the speakers but also adds impressive low end to the audio experience, a little thought and care with placement of the speakers will result in better sound.

•High frequencies are directional. Placing the speakers low down in the boat will lose some of its information.

•Speakers should be placed to simulate a “sound stage”, by being placed where you are able to hear both speakers in a stereo situation.
