Diamond Audio Technology M541, Owner'S Manual

Page: 7 / 16

The M5™ series 2-way systems M541, M551 and M561 include an RAF “rear-fill” output as part
of the crossover design. The RAF output is unfiltered to maintain a correct phase relationship to the
front stage, however, the output is attenuated by -10dB to optimize for typical vehicle size and
length. Rear-fill drivers are available separately from your DAT dealer.
As shown in diagram ‚ below, (1) connect the amplifier’s speaker output (observing correct polar-
ity) to the crossover’s INPUT terminals. Then, (2) connect the terminals labeled WOOFER to the
woofer/midbass driver (i.e., M54.1m, M55.1m or M56.1m). (3), connect the TWEETER terminals to
the M5.1t tweeter. The RAF outputs (4), connect to the rear-fill driver. We suggest using the M54.1m
or M55.1m as the sound is “timbre-matched” to the front system.
