Tweeter Adjustment

installing the grille, gently press on the outside of the tweeter ring as shown.
Adjusting the Frequency Response
Some models are equipped with Treble and Bass frequency adjustment
buttons. Pressing the button once will keep the button depressed (0 dB), and
pressing the button again will release it (+3 dB). Depending upon the button
