General instructions for MATCH UPGRADE
speaker systems for BMW vehicles
The MATCH UPGRADE mid-high speaker systems
(UP C42BMW-FRT.1 to .3) for BMW vehicles are
equipped with a crossover with bridgeable highpass
filter which allows the operation with the OE radio
(passive) as well as the perfect operation with a
DSP amplifier (semi-active).
The crossover is factory-set for the passive opera-
tion with the OE radio.
To reach the maximum sound quality, we recom-
mend to use a separate DSP amplifier. In this case it
is mandatory to bridge the highpass filter inside the
crossover and to set a highpass filter with 120 Hz
crossover frequency / 24 dB slope inside the used
DSP amplifier.
General installation instructions for MATCH
components
To prevent damage to the speakers and possible in-
jury, read this manual carefully and follow all instal-
lation instructions. This product has been checked
for proper function prior to shipping and is guaran-
teed against manufacturing defects.
For a proper performance and to ensure full war-
ranty coverage, we strongly recommend to get this
product installed by an authorized MATCH dealer.
General instruction for installing MATCH
speaker systems
The method of installation chosen and level of ex-
ecution will effect the overall performance of the
speaker system. Treat each installation step with a
high degree of attention.
We strongly recommend that you operate the com-
plete audio system at low volume before final in
-
stallation. This will allow a trial listening test before
securing the loudspeakers into their mounting loca-
tions.
Install the cabling in a manner which precludes any
danger of the leads being exposed to shear, crush-
ing or rupture forces. If there are sharp edges in the
vicinity (e.g. holes in the bodywork) all cables must
be cushioned and protected to prevent fraying.
Make sure that all speaker wires easily reach the
speaker terminals without stress on the wire or con-
nectors.
Attention:
Ensure that the loudspeakers are cor-
rectly connected (phase), i.e. plus to plus and minus
to minus.
Once you have tested the complete speaker
system and have confirmed correct operation, turn
the audio system off and prepare the loudspeaker
for final mounting.
