FINISHING TOUCH – PIVOTABLE TWEETER  

All speaker models, except the stereo ceiling models, have pivot-able tweeters. As mentioned in the 
speaker placement section, the tweeter should be level to the listener’s ear.  
 

 

 

Adequate Tweeter Direction 

 

Optimum Tweeter Direction 

 
Gently push the edge of the tweeter frame to adjust the angle. Be careful not to touch the dome 
portion of the tweeter. The tweeter must be treated with care to maintain it’s high performance 
characteristics.  

 

 
FINISHING TOUCH – TWEETER & EQUALIZATION SWITCH 

All XA series speakers are designed with a 3-position equalization switch. The center position is 
nominal (normal position). Moving the speaker switch towards the “+” will increase the equalization 
response. Moving the speaker switch towards the “-“ will decrease the equalization response. The 
equalization will affect the treble and bass.  
 
All XB series speakers are designed with a 3-postion tweeter switch. The center position is nominal 
(normal position). Moving the speaker switch towards the “+” will increase the tweeter response. 
Moving the speaker switch towards the “-“ will decrease the tweeter response. The tweeter will affect 
the treble only. 

 
FINISHING TOUCH – PAINTING 

The frame and grill can be painted to match the wall or ceiling color. Included is a paint shield that is 
meant to replace the grill on the speaker assembly. This will protect the speaker while exposing only 
the frame. 
 
The grill should not be painted while assembled to the speaker assembly. It is suggested to use spray 
paint on the grill. Be sure the perforations (holes) in the grill do not fill with paint. Several light coats 
will yield the best results.
