TIPS TO GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR POWERBASS SYSTEM Your PowerBass Autosound speakers have been meticulous engineered and designed to handle high power musical reproduction. Despite their rugged construction, it is possible to damage your speaker if they are improperly used. In general, you will hear distortion as a so-called warning before any damage occurs. If you hear distortion in your system, immediately reduce the musical level to the point where the sound retains its clarity. 1.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS NOTE: Proceed only if you are a qualified installer otherwise; let your dealer do it. • Always wear protective eyewear when using tools. • Turn off all stereo and other electrical devices before you begin. • Disconnect the (-) negative lead from your vehicle's battery. • Keep the speakers in the package until final installation. • Locate all fuel lines, brake lines, oil lines, and electrical cables when planning your installation.
COMPONENT SYSTEM INSTALLATION Component Midrange The proper installation procedure for mounting these high performance mid-range speakers is to secure the speaker to the vehicle's speaker mounting hole. Once the speaker is in place, determine if the supplied grill needs to be installed. If so, place the grill in place over the speaker and screw the speaker into the mounting hole. Component Tweeter These high quality tweeters come complete with several mounting housings for installation versatility.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES By mounting the tweeter separately from the woofer (or mid-range driver) the installer can choose the best location for sound quality and imaging. Three mounting types are possible allowing more versatility for the tweeter location. These are flush mount, surface mount, and angle mount. Flush Mounting (Type A) The best location for the tweeter is usually high up on the door and as far forward as possible without interference from the dashboard.
AUTOSOUND COMPONENT TWEETERS These high quality tweeters come complete with several mounting housings for installation versatility. Typically tweeters should be mounted on axis and as close to ear level as possible. After you have chosen the housing to be used, gently press the tweeter in the proper mounting base. Once the tweeter base is mounted, push and "twist" the housing until it locks to the base. Below are exploded views showing the possible types of tweeter mounting.
CROSSOVER NETWORK INSTALLATION AND WIRING Your PowerBass Autosound Component system contains two separate 2-way crossover networks. When choosing a location to mount the crossovers, keep in mind they contain electronic parts which can be damaged by moisture and dirt. Correct wiring of the crossover is critical to avoid damage to the speakers and ensure true high fidelity sound.
