NOTICE

Due to the nature of this speaker, it works best when installed in smaller sealed enclo- sures. The use of a ported enclosure will resulting in unsatisfactory performance and low speaker life. This speaker is intended to form a multi-way system utilizing custom built passive crossover networks tuned between 60 - 1250Hz at an 18dB or greater slope. Please consult the assistance of a qualified technician for more information before proceeding with your installation. The use of an active (electronic) crossover is also a good idea, but both should be considered to provide the best performance and frequency response.

Wiring Configurations

Because both of SM8-100 and SM16-90 are only available in a single 8 ohm voice coil configuration, and SM16-94 is only available in a single 4 ohm voice coil configuration， there are no wiring diagrams to explain for other possible impedance levels. However, you can obtain different impedance levels with multiple speakers connected to one circuit, but because of the intended application of the speaker the information is not disclosed. If you will be designing a system which requires more than one driver in one a circuit and need assistance calculating the impedance, please E-mail tech-support@soundstream.com for more information or call our offices at 323.724.4600.
