SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Before starting to mount your speaker, read the mounting and connection instructions carefully.
Disconnect the vehicle battery's negative terminal before making connections.
Be sure to observe the safety notes of the Automobile manufacturer (airbags, alarm systems, onboard
computers, immobilisers). Before drilling holes, look to see what is on the other side- making holes into
the battery, wiring looms or fuse box is not recommended.
Do not mount the speaker onto flexible rear decks (hatchback vehicles) or anywhere where they may
fall for-ward.
SOUND QUALITY
A good audio system will faithfully reproduce the original recording by offering accurate frequency
response and staging. Good frequency response reproduces high tones such as cymbals, through
human voices and most instruments, and down to the very low tones from synthesisers and drums.
Frequency response includes timbre (the accurate replication of an instrument), linearity (the tonal
quality is the same regardless of volume level), and clarity (lack of distortion of the original signal).
Blaupunkt Velocity-Series speakers address these properties by having a very smooth frequency
response with low distortion levels.
Good staging offers the illusion of a stage upon which players are located and it has a sense of height,
width, and depth. Imaging is a sound system’s ability to correctly place the instruments on the
imaginary stage. Again, the Blaupunkt Velocity-Series speakers excel here due to angled tweeter
mounting and smooth off-axis frequency response ensuring accurate reproduction.
