features of your 3-series loudspeaker warranty information molded woofer basket - the back bone of any good woofer is it’s basket. It provides the proper alignment and support structure for the magnet while the very thin braces guarantee a minimum of early reflections off the basket that would be ordinarily transmitted as sonic colorations through the cone. There are two things you must do to ensure trouble free service in the event you need warranty repairs.
warnings and tips jack pinouts Study your automobile thoroughly before you drill or cut any holes. Take extra care when working near gas tanks, gas lines, brake or hydraulic lines and electrical wiring. Wear eye and ear protection when using power tools. Keep the woofers and tweeters away from metal filings and shavings. Once foreign objects are stuck to the magnets or tweeter dome, it will be virtually impossible to remove them.
amplifier requirements troubleshooting a note on power handling symptom no output Each 3-series speaker system requires a minimum of 20 Watts per channel to achieve reasonable listening volumes in a moving automobile without clipping the amplifier. a/d/s/ recommends 150 Watts per channel as a maximum so as not to exceed the thermal or mechanical limitations of the speaker system. Any amplifier between 20 watts and 150 watts per channel may be used.
bi-wire connections to the crossover network midrange contour connections to the woofer and tweeter are the same as the normal wiring method. Connect the amplifier to the tweeter to the terminals marked tweeter input. Connect the woofer amplifier to the woofer input terminals with another run of wire. Important note - you must cut the jumpers that connect the low frequency and high frequency sections of the crossover. See diagram .
termination connections to crossover network and radio or amplifier The woofer and the tweeter use .187 spade lugs for electrical connections. Use standard .187 female quick disconnects to attach wires to the speaker. route the wires connected to the input terminals on the front of the crossover network to the power amplifier (or, if you are not using a separate power amplifier, the in-dash radio/tape or CD player).
crossover installation bi-wiring / bi-amping The 3-series allows conventional wiring, bi-wiring, or bi-amping using the supplied passive crossovers. While conventional wiring will provide excellent sound, bi-wiring or bi-amping will further enhance the performance in no-compromise systems. Bi-wiring uses a separate pair of speaker wires for the high frequency and low frequency signal between an amplifier channel and its associated crossover network.
rotating the tweeter Grasp the knob on the back side of the speaker, and gently turn it to the desired position. a/d/s/ recommends that you start with the tweeter angled so it points directly at the listening area. Feel free to experiment with the position that gives you the most pleasing sound quality. NOTE: this feature only applies to the 335im, and 336im. The tweeter of the 334im does not rotate.
