INTRODUCTION
This manual provides information on the features and installation of

PACKAGE CONTENTS
– 1 –
TPR Surround
TPR (Thermal Plastic Rubber) is resilient to temperature variations and
provides a consistent support necessary of the linear motion of the
speaker cone. In addition, the inherent damping capabilities elimi-
nates the transmission of sonic disturbances between the cone and the
frame of the speaker. This greatly improves the clarity of the speaker's
midrange frequency response.
THE RESULT: Improves speaker's frequency response.
Flat Spider
The speaker's linear compliance is balanced through the use of a
“proprietary” flat spider design. A flat spider provides symmetrical
control of the voice coil through its cone excursion. Linear cone
excursion reduces harmonic distortion for improved sound quality.
THE RESULT: Reduces mechanical distortion for better sound quality
.
– 2 –
High Temperature Voice Coil
The voice coil is of a high temperature copper wire construction. The
wire is wound in two layers on a black, anodized, aluminum voice
coil former. The voice coil former dissipates heat away from the
voice coil improving the speaker's thermal stability and improving
the reliability of the speaker.
THE RESULT: Improves reliability by dissipating generated heat.
Vented Pole Piece
The vented pole piece by design, ensures proper ventilation to cool
the voice coil and maintain lower operating temperatures. The vent
on the rear of the magnet reduces back pressure and allows cool air
to circulate in the voice coil gap. The air circulation increases the
thermal power handling of the speaker.
THE RESULT: Improves power handling by cooling the voice coil.
Silver Powder Coat Finish
Powder coating has long been the industry standard for durability in
protective metal finishes. A dry powder (non-aerosol) is electrostati-
cally applied to the metal and “baked” on to provide a hard “shell-
like” finish. As an additional benefit, powder coating is the only
finishing process that releases no toxic chemicals into our ozone.
THE RESULT: A durable and “earth friendly” metal finish.
Tools Needed
The following is a list of some of the tools necessary for the installation
of your speakers.
Power Drill with assorted bits
Tape Measure
Voltmeter
#2 Phillips Screwdriver
General
1. For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to
beginning the installation.
2. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside
the vehicle provides the best protection.
3. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or
plastic grommets to protect any wires routed through metal.
4. Mount the speakers/crossovers away from electrical sources (other
than the amplifier) i.e.., power cables, electronic fuel pumps,
vehicle computers, and other potential noise sources.
5. Mount the speakers/crossovers away from areas of extreme heat or
moisture.
6. Make sure there is an area large enough of the speaker to mount.
Warning! Failure to do this can cause damage to the speaker if the
speaker frame is bent during installation.
7. Check to see that the location is deep enough for the speaker(s) and
the location does not interfere with the normal operation of the
vehicle.
8. When mounting the speaker(s) in the door of a vehicle, make sure
the speaker(s) do not interfere with either the door or window
operation.
9. When mounting the speaker(s) on the rear deck of the vehicle, check
the operation of the rear hatch or trunk lid. Make sure the torsion bars
and other moving parts are not obstructed by the speaker(s) instal-
lation.
• Please refer to the Specifications section of this manual for proper
mounting diameter and depth of the speaker(s).
