There are two options for
1. Use a single stereo amplifier for each speaker, with one channel for the woofer and the other for the tweeter. This option is preferred if you have two identical stereo amplifiers.
2.Use one amplifier for the woofers and a separate amplifier for the tweeters. This option is preferred if you have two different stereo amplifiers. In this case, the less powerful amplifier should be used on the tweeter section.
INSTALLATION IN A 2x4 STUD WALL
All Starlets are asymmetrical. Hold the Back Box/Driver Assembly by grasping the tweeters, being careful not to touch the voice coils behind the tweeters. The tweeter assembly is very strong, as the tweeter bridge is a cast aluminum part. On the larger Starlets, it is advisable to have an assistant. Insert the long side of the back box first, pushing it until the tweeter bridge stops further move- ment. Then slip the short side into the cavity, moving the Starlet until the tweeter bridge is centered. The proximity of the back wall will support the speaker while the rest of the installation is completed. (See Diagram 16)
The Bezel/Flange Assembly is installed into the Back Box/Driver Assembly, forming a strong clamp with the wall. Please observe that there are “tabs” on the back of the Bezel/Flange Assembly that fit into corresponding slots on the baffles. They only fit one way, which is indicated by small arrows on these two parts. Use the supplied M4 x 45mm hex head screws to secure the Bezel/Flange Assembly into the Back Box/Driver Assembly. For your convenience, we’ve enclosed the correct sized hex driver in the supplied Accessory Pack. It is strongly advised that you use a power screwdriver to save time and get a tight fit. Make sure all of these hex screws are firmly seated. (See Diagram 17 on page 8)
