Tweeter  
1. 3/4" Silk Dome Tweeter – To ensure accurate high frequency reproduction, the  
tweeter dome must be both light and strong. The Fanatic X Component Systems  
use a silk dome that has extremely low mass and high strength for smooth high  
frequency reproduction.  
2. Ferrofluid Cooling – This synthetic fluid is held in place in the magnetic gap. It  
bathes the voice coil allowing higher power handling and greater reliability.  
3. Neodymium Magnet – What good would a tweeter be if it was too big to mount  
in your favorite spot? The Fanatic Component Systems use a highly efficient  
neodymiummagnettoenablea verysmalltweetertohaveverybigperformance.

ESIGN FEATURES  
Midrange  
4. Rubber Surround – The durable rubber surround withstands the  
extremes of the automotive environment. It also improves sound quality  
by reducing 2nd and 3rd order harmonics and provides wider frequency  
response.  
5. Mica Filled Polypropylene Cone – The ideal cone material would be  
infinitely strong, very light and would have very high damping to ensure  
great sound quality. The Fanatic X Series Component Systems use a  
mica filled polypropylene cone that is strong, light and has high internal  
damping to provide excellent reproduction of sound.  
6. Cupped Spider – The spider has the job of centering the voice coil and  
providing the rear suspension for the speaker. The Fanatic X Component  
Systems use a durable cupped spider to ensure great sound with long  
life and durability.  
7. Large 1" Voice Coil with Anodized Aluminum Former – Just like all  
Rockford Fosgate woofers, all Fanatic Component System midrange  
drivers use an aluminum voice coil former for more efficient dissipation  
of heat. Dissipating the heat is key to long life and high power handling,  
so go ahead and crank it up!  
8. VentedPole Piece Thepolepieceextendsfromthebackofthespeaker  
into the voice coil area. The Fanatic X Component System uses a vented  
pole piece to allow cool air to circulate in the voice coil gap which allows  
greater power handling and increased reliability.  
Crossover  
9. 2 WayButterworthCrossoverFeaturesan18dBperoctavehigh-pass  
crossoverforthetweeteranda 6dBlow-passcrossoverforthemidrange.  
The steeper slope of the tweeter crossover gives better power handling.  
The low-pass crossover provides a seamless transition between tweeter  
and midrange.  
10. Optical CompressionThis built-in protection circuit limits power to the  
tweeter when the “danger” threshold is exceeded. Because it simply  
limits power and doesn't shut the tweeter off, this circuit is completely  
inaudible.  
11. Gold-Plated Screw Terminals Terminals plated in gold for maximum  
resistance to corrosion to ensure great sound for years to come. These  
terminals accept bare wire or 1/4" spade lug connectors.  
12. 0dB/–3dB Tweeter Pad In some installations, you may find that the  
tweeter location is much closer to your ears than the midrange. This pad  
allows you to match the tweeter level to the midrange for the best  
balance.

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  
#2 Phillips Screwdriver  
Voltmeter  
General  
1. For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to beginning  
the installation.  
2. Neverrunwiresunderneaththevehicle. Runningthewiresinsidethevehicle  
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.  
Speakers  
1. Make sure there is an area large enough for the speaker to mount. Warning!  
Failure to do this can cause damage to the speaker if the speaker frame  
is bent during installation.  
2. 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.  
3. 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.  
4. 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) installation.  
• Please refer to the Specifications section of this manual for proper mounting  
diameter and depth of the speaker(s).  
Crossovers  
1. Make sure there is a flat area large enough for the crossover to mount.  
2. For best results, mount the crossover(s) next to the amplifier for a decorative  
finish to the installation and to provide an easy upgrade (no new wires to  
run) for a bi-amp Rockford Fosgate system in the future.

O UNTING LO CATIO N  
A solid front stage with a good image is one of the most difficult tasks to achieve  
in a vehicle. No car has the optimum listening environment. This makes proper  
sound staging very difficult to accomplish. Most speakers tend to be placed  
where they will fit easily, as opposed to where they can perform the best. The  
mounting location of your speakers will have a great effect on the sound quality  
of your stereo system. The special care taken to place the speakers will yield  
many hours of listening enjoyment in return. Several important recommenda-  
tions should be followed.  
Place the speakers where they have a direct  
path to the listening area.  
Forthebestintegrationbetweenthemidrange  
and tweeter, the tweeter should be placed  
less than 2" from the midrange. (Figure 1)  
If you cannot place the tweeter less than 2"  
from the midrange, then place the tweeter  
more than 7" from the midrange. Placing  
the tweeter 2"-7" from the midrange can  
cause destructive interference (frequency  
response problems) which will affect the  
2" or less  
Figure 1  
speaker's ability to reproduce the frequency range around the crossover  
frequency of the system.  
Whenever possible, place the tweeter directly above or below the midrange  
as this maximizes the imaging (point source) capability of the speakers.  
(Figure 2)  
Figure 2-A  
Figure 2-B  
– 5 –  
Sound radiated from a “point source” has the most optimum stereo imaging  
because the separation of the acoustical centers between the midrange and  
tweeter for each channel is at the optimum. Figure 2-A describes a  
horizontal speaker alignment. In a closed environment such as an  
automobile, horizontal speaker alignment can cause severe amplitude and  
phase differences which will degrade not only the imaging, but also the  
frequency response. This is due to the path length differences between the  
midrangeandtweeter. Figure2-Bdisplaysa verticalalignmentbetweenthe  
midrange and tweeter. With a vertical alignment, the path length difference  
between the midrange and tweeter are reduced to a minimum. The result  
is a negligible difference in path lengths between the midrange and tweeter  
regardless of the proximity of the listener to the speakers. Mounting the  
speaker with minimum path length difference will ensure the best staging  
and imaging possible from your audio system.

Mounting the Midrange  
1. Cut the proper size hole for the midrange/woofer.  
For the FNX-1404, cut an 90.48mm (3916") diameter hole  
For the FNX-1405, cut a 113.50mm (41532") diameter hole  
For the FNX-1406F, cut a 127mm (5") diameter hole  
For the FNX-1406, cut a 139.06mm (512") diameter hole  
2. Place the mounting ring over the mounting hole and mark the location of  
the screw mounting holes.  
3. Remove the ring. Drill the holes for the screws using a 1/8" drill bit.  
4. Route the wire through the hole.  
5. Place the mounting ring over the hole.  
6. Attach the wires and be sure to observe the proper speaker polarity.  
7. Place the speaker into the hole and screw the speaker into place. Be  
careful not to bend the speaker frame during this step.  
8. Press the speaker grille into the mounting ring.

Bandpassing the Midrange  
O
N
The Fanatic Component Systems are optimized for full range music reproduc-  
tion. In cases where a subwoofer is used, the midrange can be bandpassed in  
order to prevent overlapping frequencies from the midrange into the  
subwoofer.  
1.Determine the frequency range that the subwoofer will play (i.e.: 20Hz-80Hz)  
2.Use the low-pass crossover frequency of the subwoofer system (i.e.: 80Hz) as  
the high-pass crossover frequency for the midrange  
3.Select the appropriate capacitor value (i.e.: 500µF) to properly bandpass the  
midrange  
4.Place the capacitor in series with the +terminal of the speaker
