Coaxial Speaker Owner’s Manual

BASIC INSTALLATION
Selecting the placement of your new SX Coaxial speakers could be as easy as
using the existing factory locations or may require you to create a new location.
Speaker placement in the door, dash, or rear deck is the most common. See
your local Phoenix Gold Dealer for additional location and mounting assistance.
DOORS /REAR DECK
1. Many vehicles already have factory locations (Figure 1) to house the “DROP
IN” feature of the SX Coaxial speakers. If no existing locations are available
or are not used, check the desired location for adequate cutout area and any
depth obstructions. Make sure to allow sufficient clearance for window tracks,
structural braces, trunk lid springs, etc.
2. Assuming enough area and depth is available, use the provided template
and trace the speaker cutout and mounting holes onto the surface of the
mounting location.
3. If the mounting surface is not structurally strong enough to accommodate
screws, (i.e. plastic, cardboard) use the pro vided speed clips which will act
as a nut for the supplied screws.
4. Always provide water protection, if not supplied in the vehicle. We suggest
using a rain shield or equivalent. If in doubt, please contact your
Phoenix Gold Dealer.
SPEAKER INSTALLATION WITHOUT GRILL
Phoenix Gold has provided a foam mounting gasket. When installing your new
component speakers in a factory location make sure to use the foam mounting
gasket as shown in figure 1. For reverse mounted speakers place the foam
gasket in front of the speaker. This will ensure an air tight seal for your SX
speakers.
For more custom applications, or cases where the factory grill will not be used,
a high excursion protective grill has been provided. When installing your new
component speakers with the provided SX grill use figure 2. Make sure to use
the rubber gasket to get an air tight seal.
