Selecting the correct mounting location is critical to optimize the
performance of each tweeter.
• You should place the tweeters as close as possible to the
paired FUSION Signature Series speakers, and high enough
that the high-frequency sounds are heard and a sound stage
effect is achieved.
• You should select mounting locations that enable you to hear
sound from all speakers and tweeters at the same time to
achieve a sound stage effect. To achieve this effect, you
should not mount the speakers side-by-side.
• You must select mounting locations that provide sufficient
clearance for the mounting depth of the tweeters as specified
in the product specifications.
• You should select a flat mounting surface for the best seal.
• You should protect the speaker wires from sharp objects and
always use rubber grommets when wiring through panels.
• You should select mounting locations that avoid potential
obstacles, such as fuel and hydraulic lines and wiring.
• To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, you should
not mount the tweeters closer to a compass than the
compass-safe distance value listed in the product
specifications.
•
You should protect all terminals and connections from
grounding and from each other. Failure to do so could result
in permanent damage to the audio system and void the
product warranty.
You must turn off the audio system before making any
connections to the source unit, amplifier, or speakers. Failure
to do so could result in permanent damage to the audio
system.
Speaker Connections
These component tweeters are designed for use with FUSION
Signature Series speakers.
The tweeter contains an internal passive crossover, and no
additional crossover module is required. You must connect the
speaker wire from the stereo to the FUSION Signature Series
speaker using the included piggy-back spade terminals, and
connect the tweeters using a length of speaker wire (not
included) appropriate for the installation location.
