Tri-mode

For Tri-mode wiring the high frequency speakers should be run in stereo and use a passive in line crossover (capacitor) with each to remove the low frequency. The mono low frequency speaker would be connected in the bridge mode to the two stereo channels with a in line passive cross- over (inductor) to remove the high frequencies. The high frequency speakers should be no less than 2 ohms and the low frequency (bridged) speaker should be no less than 4 ohms.

Bridging

For bridging into a single speaker load, the Orion Cobalt CO6004 has the ability to bridge the front or rear channels together. The impedance of the speaker must not be less than 4Ω

AMPLIFIER INSTALLATION

Choosing Mounting Locations

The location of your amplifier will depend on several important issues. Due to the low profile size of the Orion Cobalt amplifiers, there are many possible installation locations that will yield satisfactory amplifier performance. Always mount the amplifier in a place that protects the amplifier from the elements. In addition, mount the amplifier on a stable, flat surface.

NOTE: Mounting amplifiers upside down is not recommended and may cause premature thermal shutdown.

WARNING! Do not mount any amplifier in the engine compartment. Amplifiers are not designed to endure the harsh environment of the exterior elements.

Passenger Compartment

If you are going to mount the amplifier in the passenger compartment, make sure you have adequate room for ventilation. The amplifiers have been designed to make under-seat mount-

CO6004 specifications

The Orion Car Audio CO6004 is a renowned component speaker system designed for audiophiles seeking a high-quality sound experience in their vehicles. This system is known for its powerful performance, impressive sound clarity, and a range of advanced features that set it apart in the competitive car audio market.

At the heart of the CO6004 is a pair of robust 6.5-inch woofers. These speakers are crafted with a high-strength polypropylene cone, providing durability and resilience against harsh environmental conditions while delivering deep, thumping bass. The woofers are designed to produce a broad frequency range, allowing users to enjoy both bass-heavy tracks and crisp vocal performances with equal clarity.

Complementing the woofers are 1-inch silk dome tweeters that excel in producing high-frequency sounds. These tweeters are specially designed to create a smooth, natural sound without distortion. With a frequency response that spans from 45Hz to 24kHz, the CO6004 ensures that every note is delivered accurately, from the deepest bass lines to the highest treble.

One of the standout features of the Orion CO6004 is its built-in crossover network. This technology allows for seamless transition between the woofers and tweeters, ensuring that each speaker operates within its optimal frequency range. The result is a well-balanced sound stage that enhances the overall listening experience. Additionally, the system includes adjustable tweeter level controls, allowing users to customize the audio output to their personal preferences.

Installation of the CO6004 is made easy with its user-friendly design. The speakers come with a range of mounting options and hardware, ensuring compatibility with various vehicle models. The compact size of the components also facilitates straightforward placement without taking up excessive space.

Durability is another hallmark of the Orion Car Audio CO6004. The speakers are built with weather-resistant materials, making them suitable for use in different climates and under various driving conditions. This resilience ensures longevity and consistent performance over time.

In summary, the Orion Car Audio CO6004 stands out as a premier choice for car audio enthusiasts. With its powerful woofers, precision tweeters, advanced crossover technology, and durable design, it delivers an exceptional audio experience that enhances any drive. Whether for casual listening or serious sound quality appreciation, the CO6004 proves to be a worthy investment for improving your vehicle's audio system.
