CROSSOVER DIRECTIONS
1. CAREFULLY remove the cover by grabbing both sides, applying pressure, and lifting.
2. Mount the crossover using the two holes located under the crossover cover, being careful to not over
tighten the screws and crack the plastic. A wire tie may be utilized if mounting the crossover to a wire
loom etc.
3. Mounting crossovers in the doors are not recommended for 2 main reasons. 1- It’s not possible to
adjust tweeter attenuation after you have done some critical listening. 2- WATER DAMAGE! Damage
may occur to the crossover if it is exposed to water when located in a door. If you need to mount them
in the door please make sure you mount them in a DRY AREA. Water damage is NOT covered under
warranty.
4. Adjust the tweeter level jumpers according to the tweeter chart, (only use if not bi-amping the system).
5. Replace the cover.
TWEETER LEVEL JUMPERS
The purpose of these jumpers is to match the tweeter volume to the midrange or midbass. This can be
adjusted easily by
Listening to a well recorded track. If the tweeters sound too loud in comparison to the midrange or midbass
then adjust the jumpers until it sound balanced. An RTA
Can also be used if you have one.
The tweeter level attenuations are specified on the following page.
All crossovers will be shipped with bi-amp switches in the default single-amp position.
