Protection  
Most speaker damage occurs as a result of amplifier  
distortion also known as “Clipping”. Clipping occurs  
when an amp is driven beyond its maximum rated  
output. This kind of distortion can be hard to hear  
unless you know what to listen for. Any time you hear  
a harsh ear piercing sound at hi volume your amp is  
probably clipping.

the tweeter at a location between the driver and  
passenger at ear level.

the positive and negative to the woofer. Run these  
wires to the crossover and connect them to the  
terminals marked Woofer + and -.

mark the screw locations. Pre drill the screw holes  
and the hole for the wire. Screw the mount to the  
panel tightly. Run the wire through the hole and  
gently pull it until the tweeter is fully seated in the  
mount. Install the retainer and point the tweeter.
