INSTALLATION
The performance of these XTR subwoofers is directly proportional to the quality of
the installation. Care taken with the installation process will be rewarded by years
of satisfying performance. If you are unsure of your installation abilities, please
refer to your local authorized ORION dealer for assistance. Orion dealers are trained
professionals dedicated to extracting the maximum performance out of your Orion
system. If you decide to install this speaker system yourself, please read the entire
section on sealed and vented enclosures before starting the installation.
FINDING SPEAKER MOUNTING LOCATIONS
Choosing the correct speaker locations will have the greatest effect on the sound
quality of the system. Different considerations are needed when choosing the
locations that best suit your needs. The locations must be large enough for the
speakers to fit. Care is needed to ensure that the location you have chosen will not
affect any of the mechanical or electrical operations of the vehicle.
Determining the best location for the speakers will depend on your cosmetic needs
and your vehicle’s interior. Usually the woofers are installed in the trunk, rear seat, or
rear of the vehicle..
