Flush Mounting: 

1) Cut a 2 1/16” (52mm) diameter hole through the 

mounting surface.  If the surface is covered with 
cloth or carpet, be careful not to tear or pull the 
material.  Sometimes it is a good idea to peel the 
material away, and then trim it by hand. 

2) Secure the cup in the mounting cutout by using 

the spring clips and screw provided.  Slip the 
spring clips through the bottom of the cup and 
tighten the screw until the cup is firmly seated.  
See Figure 1. 

3) Once the cup is secure, mount the tweeter into 

the cup making sure to first pass the tweeter 
wires through the openings in the cup.  Turn the 
outer swivel ring, (not the tweeter) clockwise  to 
lock it into place.  See Figure 2.  The tweeter 
may be tilted approximately 15 degrees to 
optimize dispersion and imaging. 

INSTALLING 

THE   

TWEETER 

The first step in a successful installation is thorough 
planning.  Choose the location for your speaker 
components carefully.  Follow these suggestions to 
ensure proper imaging and the best performance: 

Select a location where each tweeter and 
midrange/woofer can be mounted close to each 
other.  A good rule of thumb is a maximum of 
one foot from cone to tweeter. 

Choose a location that offers the least 
obstruction of sound to your ears. 

Try to mount the components on the same plane. 

Always check behind the chosen mounting 
locations to make sure that there are no 
obstructions (e.g., trunk springs, gas tank, 
window tracks) or wires in the way, as well as to 
make sure that there is ample support on which 
to mount the components.
