The tweeter filter
circiut can be
disconnected with an
inside jumper. This is
useful if you want to
use the tweeter with
an external filter or an
electronic crossover.
The filters also
include a tweeter
protection circuit
which resets itself if
it´s released.
SPEAKER PHASING
To be sure to have the correct speaker polarity (phase) you
can check this by using a 1,5 Volt battery.
Connect a cable from the battery plus-pole to the speaker
plus, and a cable from the battery minus to the speaker minus.
If the speakers are correctly connected the speaker cone
should move outwards on both right and left channel.
This check must be made on the cables going from the
speakers, to the output terminals of your car stereo or
amplifier.
If you have any questions about this product, contact
your local dealer or DLS customer support center.

This instruction will help you to do a correct installation.
If you want to get the best sound from your speakers we advice

your speaker a sealed type
is to be prefered. The box
volume can vary depending
on how much bass you want
from your speakers. For
fullrange use of the
speakers, follow the
recommended box volumes
in the table. If you want to limit the reproduction at for
ex. 100 Hz, divide these
volumes b y half.

Speaker connection and tweeter
level select:
The filters in this system should be connected with the
respective speaker element as in the drawing. Select tw eeter
level by moving the jumper inside the filter box between high /
low. Make your own tests for best result.
Sometimes the midrange can be improved by phase
reversing the tweeter. Try it and judge yourself.
NOTE! The filters must be used. If the tweeters are
connected without filter they will be damaged and
the sound reproduction becomes bad.

MOUNTING:
Mount the speakers in the door or in the dashboard of your car.
Normally they will fit in the cars original mounting hole. If
possible reinforce with a baffle of MDF-board or similar. An installation high up on the door side is to be prefered. An
alternative installation is in so called kick panels down on each
side of the floor with the speakers facing up- and inwards
towards the listener. An installation of the tweeter close to the
bass/mid element is to be prefered. The tweeter can be installed
on the dash-board, or recessed in the door with the accessories
in the tweeter bo x .
It is important to fasten the speakers properly in order to avoid
bad sound and rattling.
The filters included with the speakers must also be fastened
properly to avoid rattling. Don´t place them close to the internal
wiring of the car, this can cause interference. Make sure the
cables don´t get jammed causing a short circuit to ground. This
can damage the amplifier circuits.
The speaker grilles are mounted in the plastic speaker frame by
the use of the rubber coumpound included in the packing.
Spread the compound ev en in the frame.
The tweeter installation is described in the instruction sheet
coming with the tweeters.
