JBL GTO15T User Manual

Automotive Tweeter Owner’s Manual GTO15T
GTO SERIES
Introduction
Thank you for choosing the JBL GTO15T. These tweeters have been designed to provide smooth high­frequency reproduction, high power handling and ease of installation.
About These Instructions
Installation of automotive stereo components can require extensive experience with a variety of mechan­ical and electrical procedures. Although these instructions explain how to install GTO15T tweeters in a general sense, they do not show the exact installation methods for your particular vehicle. If you feel you do not have the experience, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead ask your authorized JBL car audio dealer about professional installation options.
Loud Music and Hearing
Playing loud music in an automobile can permanently damage your hear­ing, as well as hinder your ability to hear trafc. The maximum volume levels achievable with JBL speakers, combined with high power amplica­tion, may exceed safe levels for extended listening. We recommend using low volume levels when driving. JBL accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury, or property dam­age as a result of use or misuse of this product.
About the Crossover
Passive-crossover design involves precise circuit design and compo­nent selection. Moreover, a well­designed crossover circuit provides an intended electrical response, when combined with the electrical properties of the speaker, to provide a particular acoustic response. Each enclosed crossover has been optimized to provide a at response when used with a GTO15T tweeter.
Do not use another brand or type of passive crossover, or connect more than one tweeter to a crossover. Doing so may damage the tweeter.
About Placement
Figures 1 and 2 show possible speaker placements with Figure 1 being more desirable. We recom­mend using the kick panel for mounting to obtain the best staging and imaging in most vehicles.
