If tweeters are installed by “indirect radiation” (big angle default), there are generally too much of these frequencies. The
crossover can adjust the amplitude on that band.
3) ADAPTATION OF THE SOUND BETWEEN 2.500 HZ AND 6.000 Hz
-Next procedure is available on 12dB setting only. If chose 6dB, the cut-off frequency only will be changed.
The speaker system is adaptable to specific car acoustics. The frequency responce can be optimised according to position and geometric situation of the
speaker by simple changes of the leading wire connections (JUMPER). There are simple and difficult adaptation possibilities, we recommend strictly to start with
the simple ones while pass to the difficult only just after good experience is done. Unnecessary changes by the JUMPER(s) decrease the sound behaviour of the
whole audio system.
1) INTRODUCTION
The crossover is supplied with a default setting. If some speakers do not work or work too much softly as bad sounding, the crossover has to be adjusted again to
the basic settings in order to clarify if mistakes on crossover setting is the real defect reason or not. So you can avoid that you or the dealer have to check the
speaker unnecessarily.
IMPORTANT
DEFAULT SETTING
The FW-HX1 crossover allows you to adjust the tweeter sounding by 6dB or 12dB cut-off slopes (Section 3). It is recommended to
leave the 12dB setting (JUMPER in) so the system achives the full maximum stress and all further possible adjustments can be
made easy. The 6dB setting is suitable for who knows the acoustic advantages only and knows which should be the rigth power
to use on. By this setting, the tweeter is limited “downward” only with a 6 dB cut-off slope. Therefore it must transfer very loading
parts of the midrange (particularly with high capacitances as 10 µF, available by FW-HX1)
2) BASIC SETTING
The crossover offers also the possibility to bridge the PTC (tweeter protection circuit) (Section 1). This operation brings minimal
acoustic advantages, however the tweeter is not protected against overloads. Also this setting is reserved for specialists, who
know the advantages and drive the system with the right power. The “6dB” setting is absolutely dangerous for the tweeter!

As for
C capacitance, the amplitude within the lower range is reduced. If the amplitude on the cut-off
range is too quiet, the amplitude can also be increased by increasing C. Notice that on variation of capacitance,
the characteristic of the filter will change. By large capacitance, the power which is supplied to the tweeter, strongly
increases.
