Tweeter level adjustment
Adjustments to the tweeter level, can
be made at precise increments, using
the selector buttons found inside on
the PCB board of the crossover.
These are indicated as -1dB, -2dB and
-4dB. By pushing in one or several of
these selector buttons, allows various
reductions of level, from -7dB total by
1dB increments
(fig. M) .
Tweeter level adjustment table
Midrange level adjustment
The crossover contains a specific
level adjustment for the midrange
frequencies.
Fitting the drive units high up in the
vehicle requires the mode " Mid flat "
to be used. Doing so will ensure the
overall response curve of the system
remains linear
(fig. O, A and fig. P) .
Fitting the drive units low in the
vehicle, especially in the bottom of the
door for example, requires the mode
"Mid High" to be used. Doing so will
ensure such normally directional
frequencies are not "masked" or lost
in the textiles of the vehicle
(fig. O, B
and fig. P) .

Staging level adjustment
The radiused-profiled wave-guides
on the exterior of the TN52 tweeter,
can control the directivity of the high
frequencies. Thereby, the acoustic
energy available can be controlled
by the orientation of this radiused
profile. This characteristic essentially
adds further benefit to the user, to
control the staging of the system, or
defining better the virtual acoustic
imaging of the sound produced.
By simply turning the tweeter and
changing the position of the radiused
profiles, will modify this staging
aspect
(fig. N) .
Running-in period
K2 Power drive units use the very
latest components. To ensure such
complex mechanical elements work
in harmony with each other, they
must be allowed to function correctly
in this environment. Such changes
in temperature and humidity are
regarded as very hostile. For K2 Power
speakers to benefit, a running-in
period must be used to ensure they
are prepared for this. We recommend
that once the system is ready for
listening the drive units should be
run-in with medium volume setting,
with music that has the full bandwidth
of frequencies (sub-bass through to
treble). This running-in period should
be used for a few weeks, to gain the
full potential. After which the excellent
performance of your K2 Power
products can be fully appreciated.
