INSTALLING THE CROSSOVER

Step 1:

Find a location for the crossover away from any factory or after market electrical wires.
It is recommended to mount the passive crossover close to the amplifier.

Step 2:

Mount the crossover using the supplied screws.

Step 3: Connect the wires. Make sure the speaker wires for the midrange go to the mid/

woofer output and the tweeter to the tweeter output. Be sure to observe the correct
polarity. Changing the polarity of the tweeter may be necessary for optimum sound
quality.

TWEETER LEVEL CONTROLS

The three position switch in the crossover box labeled “TW Level” adjusts the relative volume
of the tweeter with respect to the midrange. The 0db position is referenced as equal output
from the midrange and the tweeter. The -3dB and +3dB positions offer -3dB less and +3dB more
output from the tweeter respectively. Tweeter level can be adjusted independently for right and
left channels to compensate for different listening tastes and mounting locations.
