2. The best center image will be
achieved when the distance from
the left speaker and the right
speakers are as equal as possi-
ble from your listening position.
This is most easily achieved by
placing the speakers as far for-
ward as possible.
3. Treble is directional in nature.
This means that high frequencies
are reduced as you move off the
tweeter's axis. The angle mounts
will allow the GTC04 tweeters to
be pointed across the car to the
listener on the opposite side. This
will make each listener slightly
off-axis to the tweeter that is
closest to that listener, which
helps to compensate for the fact
that the listener is always closer
to one tweeter than to the other
(see Figure 6).
Component Placement
Because of the JBL Component
System’s small size and ex-
tremely versatile mounting
options, there are an almost infi-
nite number of placement options
to achieve excellent sound quality
in any vehicle. Please consider
the following statements to help
you get the most from your
system.
1. The most spacious stereo
image is achieved when the left
and right speaker systems are
placed as wide apart as possible.
The best system integration is
achieved when the tweeter is
mounted close to the midwoofer
speaker. This helps smooth the
transition from the midrange and
tweeter crossover point.
Choosing mounting locations
which satisfy all of the above cri-
teria will provide the most satis-
fying performance.
