3XL-63C COMPONENT SYSTEM INSTALLATION

 

3XL Component Midrange

The proper installation procedure for mounting these high performance midbass speakers is to secure the 
speaker to the vehicle’s speaker mounting hole.  Once the speaker is in place, determine if the supplied 
grill needs to be installed. If so, place the grill in place over the speaker and screw the speaker into the 
mounting hole. 
 

These high quality silk dome tweeters come complete with several mounting housings for installation 
versatility.  Once you have chosen the housing that is to be used, gently press the tweeter into the proper 
mounting cup.  Experiment with the tweeter positioned in several locations to determine the best imaging 
result before cutting out any panel.  Typically tweeters should be mounted on axis and as close to ear 
level as possible.  If the tweeter has to be removed from the mounting cup, insert a small screwdriver in 
the back of the tweeter and carefully push the tweeter from the mounting cup.  The following page con-
tains possible mounting diagrams for the component tweeter and woofer. (Note: The crossover features 
a -3/0/+3 attenuation switch)
