Congratulations!

And thank you for purchasing this high quality component system from our MONOLITH-

series. If you plan on installing the system by yourself, please read the following instructions 

carefully before you attempt the installation. For any further information about this product, 

please contact your authorized EMPHASER dealer.

ABOUT THIS LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEM

 

All components of this MONOLITH system have been carefully selected and precisely matched. 

The Aluminum membrane of the woofers is due to its hardness and the high natural resonance 

frequency ideally suited for a detailed and extremely low-distortion reproduction quality in the 

intended area of application. The 25 mm silk dome tweeter convinces with its warm sound 

and the ability to produce even the finest musical details. At the heart of the systems are the 

elaborately designed crossovers: the parts have been defined in intensive test series in the 

laboratory as well as in the vehicle, with the aim of achieving the best possible phasing of 

the tweeters and woofers in the crossover frequency band. The result is immersive musical 

enjoyment with vivid natural voices and instruments and their positioning on the imaginary 

soundstage as well as an impressive spatial depth. EMPHASER wishes you a lot of fun with 

this outstanding speaker system.

MOUNTING

 

The first step of a successful installation is to choose the best mounting locations for the 

tweeters and mid/woofers. Usually, cars come with factory speaker openings for mid/woof-

ers. If you cannot mount the mid/woofers to an existing factory cutout, the alternative is to 

buy a set of car specific speaker mounting adapters, to provide a stable platform for the mid/

woofer mounting. In such a case, we recommend you consult your authorized EMPHASER 

dealer to ask for his assistance.

Tweeter Mounting

The tweeter positioning does exhibit a direct and profound influence on the front staging of 

your component system. Depending on the chosen location, where the tweeters are installed, 

different loudness levels in the treble region will result. The installation location of the tweeters 

also has an influence on the spatial representation of the system. Due to the different distances 

of the sound, there can be differences in the sum of the individual sound components of the 

tweeter and bass-midrange around the crossover frequency. Therefore, care should be taken 

to ensure that the distances between the ear and the woofer / tweeter are approximately the 

same. The tweeter level can be adjusted by a 3-way switch inside the x-over, to compensate 

for different mounting locations.

■   To determine the best tweeter location, it may be necessary to carry out short listening   

  tests with the tweeter mounted to different locations inside the vehicle. For this, double   

  sided tape can be used.
■   Set all tone controls, i.e. pre-EQ, treble / bass and loudness functions of your head unit   

  to the neutral position first, before you attempt listening to the speakers installed in your  

 car.
The influence of the tweeter mounting location on the front staging is profound – and care must 

be taken to achieve a good compromise between unobtrusive mounting and good sound quality.
