Installing the SPEAKERS
Once the mounting locations have been established, run speaker cables from the amplifier outputs to the mounting locations. If you are running cables through bulkheads, drill holes for the cable and use a urethane or plastic grommet to protect the wire from chafing in the hole. Make sure that the cables will clear any mechanical devices in the boat and secure them with wire ties.
If you have any questions about the installation or setup of your coaxial speaker system not covered in this manual, please contact your dealer or technical support.
