JBL GT series Installation & Owner's Manual

Placement
JBL speakers are designed for the rigors
of the automotive environment and can
withstand temperatures which can range
from -40 to +200 degrees and
extreme humidity. However, you can
effectively increase the life of your JBL
loudspeakers by avoiding installations
which may expose them to moisture or
water. Select installation locations very
carefully; CAUTION: Look for critical
components, such as electrical wiring,
hydraulic brake lines, the fuel tank or the
fuel lines that may be damaged when
drilling holes to secure the speakers. Be
extremely cautious because sometimes
these components are hidden within
double-walled panels. Do not drill until
you are sure that doing so will not
damage such critical components.
Damage to these components can cause
immediate or delayed injury and/or
property damage.
Securing Your Speakers
The GT speaker systems are designed for
easy installation in most cars. However,
the speakers should be properly fastened
to the vehicle with screws, brackets and /
or tie-down straps to prevent movement
of the speaker system while the car is in
motion. Securing the speakers properly to
the car can be a difficult task because of
possible interference or damage to car
electronics or fuel systems from the
screws. Because of this, you should
consider having your speaker system
installed by a professional if you do not
feel your installation skill is sufficient.
Failure to secure the speakers properly
with commercially available hardware
may result in damage to people
and property.
Impedance
JBL speakers have a 4 ohm impedance
rating. They will work with most |
amplifiers rated for 4 ohms or lower
impedance. When in doubt, contact the
manufacturer of the amplifier.
Installation and Wiring
To connect the loudspeaker systems
to the amplifier, use two-conductor
insulated wire. Your JBL dealer can
recommend suitable cables, or you
can buy wire at most hardware stores.
We recommend #16 AWG wire as a
minimum size. Connections are made at
the terminals located on the back of the
loudspeaker system. The push terminal
connectors accept bare wires.
In areas where abrasion or excessive
flexing can occur, guard against failure of
the wire’s insulating layer. Electrically
shorted wires can damage both your
electronics and loudspeakers.
