D L S U LT I M AT E K I T U P 4
Thank you for buying a
DLS ULTIMATE 2-way speaker kit.
This kit must be installed in a correct way to give the wanted
performance. Read the entire manual before starting the install
job.
Install the speakers yourself if you feel confident with our instruc
-
tions and if you have the proper tools.
If not, turn over the installation job
to someone better suited to it.
Installation of speaker drivers
Mount the bass speakers in the door sides or on the dashboard
.
An
installation high up on the door side is to be preferred.
The tweeters can be installed recessed in the door, on the dash board or
in the A-pillar.
It’s vital that the filter boxes are attached properly to the interior of the
vehicle to avoid rattling. Don’t place them close to the internal wiring of
the car, this can cause interference.
Avoid installing the filter boxes in the door sides because they can easily
be broken because of rattling or moisture.
Installation in BMW cars
This speaker kit can be installed in most new BMW-cars if the 4”
drivers have four attachments.
The tweeter (T25) fits directly in the A-pillar tweeter attachment
but we recommend the use of hot melt glue to secure it to the
surface.
Break-in period
Allow the speakers to play at normal volume for at least 15-20 hours.
After this time the performance will be correct.
Connection
Make sure you connect the cables with correct polarity to the speakers.
Observe the markings on the filter and speaker terminals.

Tweeter level select is used to adjust the tweeter level. In position
High the level is +2 dB higher than in Low. Try which level that sounds
best in your installation.
2.
HP filter ( HP= High pass) is only used when installed in BMW cars
equipped with originally installed subwoofer. In this case set the switch
to position IN, which will reduce frequencies below 200Hz.
In all other installations the switch must be in position OUT.

Recessed mounting:
You need a hole with a diameter of 46
mm / 1,81” in the door side. Put the
two metal wings through the two tracks
in the centre of the cup, just as the pic-
ture shows, and attach them with the
M4 screw and nut through the centre
hole. The cup is attached to the door
side when the metal wings are press-
sed to the back side of the door.
Put the tweeter driver into the cup with
the cable going out through the bottom
hole. Then attach the driver into the
cup and turn it clockwise to attach to
the cup. When removing the tweeter
driver from the cup, turn it ccw and lift
it up.
