Mounting - Kicker KM604 Manual Del Propietário

Mounting

The KICKER KM Speakers are designed for free-air
applications and do not require a sealed enclosure
for optimum performance. It is important to isolate the
sound coming from the front of the speaker from the
sound radiating from the back of the speaker. The
sound produced by the KM coaxials is directional.
Find the best location for stereophonic sound. If
necessary, add more KM coaxial speakers to the
system to help distribute and balance the sound-
stage.
After determining the best mounting locations,
carefully check the areas where the mounting
hardware will be placed. If a mounting location does
not already exist, cut a 5-1/8" hole in the desired
location. Use masking tape to help prevent damage
to the paint in the locations to be cut or drilled. If you
are mounting the speaker to a surface made from
thin, soft material such as aluminum, use the provided
stainless steel speed nuts to provide threads for the
mounting screws. If the speaker cut-out locations
require you to cut metal, avoid structural metal and
braces. If the panel cannot support the weight of the
speaker, an optional reinforcing ring may be fastened
or adhered to it.
Make sure the stainless steel mounting screws
and U-type speed clips will not puncture the fuel
cell, wiring, or interfere with any mechanical parts
on the underside of the mounting surface. Pre-drill
the mounting screw holes using a 7/64" (2.5mm)
bit, and attach the KM coaxial speakers to the boat
by fastening the supplied stainless steel coarse-
threaded screws to the boat's structure. If applicable,
use the enclosed stainless steel U-type speed clips.
If the supplied hardware is not applicable to your
installation, some other means of securely attaching
the speakers to the boat must be used.
