MTX Audio TX4001 Tweeter Mounting, Surface Mounting, Flush and Angle Mounting, MID Range Mounting

TWEETER MOUNTING

For the best imaging and soundstage, the tweeter should be placed as close as possible to the midrange driver. This process will help when the final tuning is completed. When positioning the tweeter for the best imaging, aim the passenger side tweeter toward where the driver’s head will be. The same process should also be completed on the driver’s side tweeter but this time you’ll aim the tweeter toward where the passenger’s head will be. Positioning the tweeters in this manner will help to set up a very solid soundstage.

Surface Mounting

•Select mounting location. Mark wire hole and screw locations using the surface cup as a template.

•Drill holes for tweeter wires and mounting screws

•Using the supplied screws, attach the surface cup to surface

•Run tweeter wires through the hole and twist the tweeter into the cup

•Connect the tweeter wires to the supplied crossover

Flush and Angle Mounting

•Select mounting location and mark a 1-7/8” diameter hole with supplied template

•Cut out the 1-7/8” hole (a hole saw is recommended for metal and hard plastic surfaces; an X-acto knife for any other surface

•Place the supplied bevel headed screws through the flush/angle cup and thread into the mounting clip, but do not tighten

•Take the assembled flush/angle cup and mounting clip and place them into the 1-7/8” diameter hole, making sure the mounting clip goes completely through the hole

•Tighten the screw in the base of the flush cup until the cup is completely tight

•Split tweeter wires and run through the hole and twist the tweeter into the cup

MID RANGE MOUNTING

To get the best possible music reproduction, it is important to isolate the sound that is produced from the rear of the speaker from the sound that is produced from the front of the speaker. To isolate the front from the back wave, make sure the speaker is mounted in a baffle or plate, so that the back of the speaker is in a sealed chamber.

Mounting

•Select the mounting location (door panels, rear side panels, rear deck, etc...)

•Using the supplied templates, mark the mounting holes on the door panel or rear deck.

•Drill or cut the required holes as needed.

•Install the units as illustrated in the diagrams.

*Note: The TX6001 Thunder Axe Separates are supplied with mounting adapter plates. The adapters are used to convert the smaller basket sizes needed for European models to the larger domestic sizes. The plates will allow a tight and accurate fit, decreasing the need to fabricate adapters out of MDF or plastic.
