MID/WOOFER MOUNTING
Remove the factory grilles of the front door and remove – if applicable – the factory installed full
range speakers or mid/woofers. Depending on the car brand and type, it is sometimes unavoidable
to remove the complete doorpanels to gain full access to the speaker openings.
If this is the case, you should buy some spare plastic clips for remounting of the door panels after
your install is complete, as these clips tend to break quite easily.
Note that a tight fit of the door panels is important, since door panels with a loose fit swallow bass
energy and they may add unwanted rattling and distortions to the sound of your speaker system.
Before you proceed to mount the EMPHASER mid/woofers, check the available installation depth
with both front windows down.
Route the speaker wires from the crossover to the cut-out where the mid/woofers are to be mounted.
Connect the speaker wires to the mid/woofers. Pay attention to the polarity imprints on the terminals
and wires when connecting the mid/woofers.
X-OVER MOUNTING
The crossover can be mounted in almost any location inside the vehicle. Recommended places are:
Inside the door, under the carpet in front of the door angles, under the dash board etc. Just don’t
mount the crossovers in places where they may be exposed to water. Consider to find a spot that
allows you to fine tune the tweeter attenuation level, after your install is completed.
Connect the tweeter wires, the wires from the mid/woofers and the wires from the amplifier to the
crossover units. Make sure all wires are hooked up with correct polarity, i.e. electrically in phase,
which means positive (+) is connected to positive, and negative (-) to negative.
Out of phase connections, i.e. when a mid/woofer is concerned, will cause very low bass output
and a weird staging.
