LOCATION AND MOUNTING
The first step in a successful installation is thorough planning. Choose the location for your speaker components carefully. Follow these suggestions to ensure proper imaging and the best performance:
∙Select a location where each tweeter and midrange/woofer can be mounted close to each other. A good rule of thumb is a maximum of one foot from cone to tweeter.
∙Choose a location that offers the least obstruction of sound to your ears.
∙Try to mount the components on the same plane.
∙Always check behind the chosen mounting locations to make sure that there are no obstructions (e.g., trunk springs, gas tank, window tracks) or wires in the way, as well as to make sure that there is ample support on which to mount the components.
INSTALLING Flush Mounting:
THE 1) Cut a 2 1/16” (52mm) diameter hole through the
TWEETER mounting surface. If the surface is covered with cloth or carpet, be careful not to tear or pull the
material. Sometimes it is a good idea to peel the material away, and then trim it by hand.
2)Secure the cup in the mounting cutout by using the spring clips and screw provided. Slip the spring clips through the bottom of the cup and tighten the screw until the cup is firmly seated. See Figure 1.
3)Once the cup is secure, mount the tweeter into the cup making sure to first pass the tweeter wires through the openings in the cup. Turn the outer swivel ring, (not the tweeter) clockwise to lock it into place. See Figure 2. The tweeter may be tilted approximately 15 degrees to optimize dispersion and imaging.
