TWEETER ADJUSTMENT SWITCH

When installing your Ti Component system you may want to adjust your tweeter setting to fit your specific application. Phoenix Gold has provided a tweeter adjustment switch in the Ti Component System crossover.To access this switch you must first remove the crossover cover by squeezing the tabs on the side of the unit (Figure 4) and gently twisting the lid counter clockwise. Once the lid is removed you will see a switch located in the center of the circuit board. To increase the tweeter output move the switch to the +2dB position. If this switch is in the +2dB location and you want to decrease the tweeter output move the switch to the 0dB position. Once you have your crossover configured place the lid back into place by centering the lid over the circuit board and press straight down until it snaps into place.

You will have to do this for each of the two crossovers included with this Ti Component System. The process is the same for each.

TWEETER INSTALLATION

With a variety of supplied mounting options, the Ti series tweeter is easy to install in any vehicle. Each Ti component set comes with a flush mount and surface mount installation kit. For other custom mounting configurations, please contact your authorized Phoenix Gold Dealer.

Flush Mount: For optimal tweeter installation, use the Flush Mount option. The Flush mount requires 3⁄4” depth and a 2-1/16” hole in the mounting surface (figure 5)

Surface Mount: Screws are provided for use when cutting a hole in the door panel or other mounting surface is not an option. Make sure that the surface mount location is free of passenger movement that might damage the tweeter. (figure 6)

The Ti tweeters pivot in their housings. This allows the user to align the tweeter during the installation process for optimum listening results.

For best results, always try to maintain equal path lengths between the right and the left tweeter and the listening position. This is usually accomplished by mounting as low and deep as possible in a kick panel installation, or high and deep in a dashboard installation. Be cautious in dashboard installations not to reflect the tweeter off of the windshield: this increases reflections and can greatly diminish the overall system listening quality.

For door panel installations, try to angle the tweeters toward the listener to optimize high frequency performance.

TI6CS, TI65CS specifications

The Phoenix Gold TI65CS and TI6CS are high-performance car audio speakers designed to deliver superior sound quality and exceptional durability. Targeting audiophiles and casual listeners alike, these speakers come equipped with a range of cutting-edge technologies and features that enhance the listening experience.

One of the standout characteristics of the TI65CS and TI6CS is their construction. The speakers are built using a lightweight yet sturdy polypropylene cone, which ensures robust audio reproduction without compromising on clarity. This material is also resistant to moisture, making the speakers suitable for various environments, including those with high humidity levels.

Both models feature a unique silk dome tweeter that produces crisp highs and a wide frequency response range. This allows users to enjoy the subtle nuances in their music, from the delicate strumming of a guitar to the soaring highs of a symphony. The tweeter's design minimizes distortion, ensuring a clean sound that maintains fidelity even at high volumes.

The TI65CS is a coaxial speaker, incorporating a woofer and tweeter into one unit. This design not only saves space but also ensures that the frequencies are well integrated, providing a seamless audio experience. Meanwhile, the TI6CS takes a slightly different approach, offering a component speaker system that allows for even greater sound customization. The separate woofer and tweeter configuration enables better imaging and sound staging, allowing listeners to discern the location of instruments and vocals within their favorite tracks.

Another key feature of the TI series is the integrated crossover network. This technology efficiently divides the audio signal into designated frequency ranges, directing the appropriate sounds to the respective drivers. The result is a more balanced and rich audio presentation. Additionally, the adjustable crossover points allow users to tailor the sound to their preferences, accommodating different listening styles and music genres.

Durability is a crucial aspect of both the TI65CS and TI6CS. The speakers are designed to withstand the rigors of automotive use, including exposure to heat and vibrations. Their robust construction does not compromise sound quality, ensuring that performance remains consistent over time.

In summary, the Phoenix Gold TI65CS and TI6CS speakers stand out in the competitive car audio market. With their advanced materials, innovative technologies, and user-friendly features, these speakers promise exceptional sound quality, making them a worthy investment for anyone looking to enhance their auditory experience on the road. Whether you prefer the sleek design of the coaxial TI65CS or the customizable options of the component TI6CS, both models deliver an impressive listening experience that is sure to please.
