Tweeters installation
Location
TBe tweeter has been designed for
flush mounting (recommended)
or surface mounting installation,
using the two fixing kits provided.
Installation’s choice position is
extremely important. This is a major
factor for high frequency SPL, stability
of the acoustics, stereophonic
imaging, and overall staging. The
standard recommendation for an
ideal stereo imaging, is to ensure
the “left” and “right” tweeters are
installed in the same positions.
Also they are approximately at
equal distance to the driver (vice-
versa for the passenger). Various
positions advised should be checked
and comparatives made, for an
ideal positioning. Tweeter should
always be positioned ahead of the
normal listening position. The main
preferences are the outer positions
of the dashboard
(fig. 1, A)
,
on the windscreeen pillars
(fig. 1, B)
(only requires a small amount of
install work). The location close to
the door mirror
(fig. 1, C)
is also
regarded as a good position. Lastly
a position high in the door
(fig. 1, D)
is also acceptable even if it is not
considered as the best to optimize
staging. It is imperative to check
before any installation is attempted,
that enough space is available
(especially for flush-mounting
appli-cations). Crossblock (included
in n°5, 6 and 7 kits) contains all
necessary functionalities to optimize
the tweeter setting, according to its
location and vehicle acoustic.
Surface mounting
Surface mounting fixing kit offers
various possibilities, thanks to its
wave guide which allows different
alignments. Fix the assembly using the
screw provided on vehicle trim. Don’t
forget the washer to avoid rubber
joint’s slide shearing
(fig. 2, 3)
.
Thread the cable from the tweeter,
through the back. Then fix tweeter
using the four stainless steel screws.
Flush mounting (highly recom-
mended)
Best results will be obtained by a
tweeter flush mounting. Cut trim
using tweeter as a mould. Push in the
support and ensure it remains flat on
the surface. Ensure it is locked in
place with the screws supplied. Lock
the screw. Thread the cable from the
tweeter, through the back, then lock
in place the tweeter using the four
screws provided
(fig. 4, 5)
