Installation Considerations

Tools Needed

The following is a list of some of the tools necessary for the installation of
your speakers.

• Power Drill with assorted bits

• #2 Phillips Screwdriver

• Tape Measure

• Voltmeter

General

1. For safety , disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to begin-

ning the installation.

2. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the

vehicle provides the best protection.

3. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plas-

tic 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.

Tweeters

1. When mounting the tweeter(s) in the door of a vehicle, make sure they

do not interfere with either the door or window operation.

2. Please refer to the Specifications section of this manual for proper

mounting diameter and depth of the tweeters.

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 dec-

orative 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.

• Sound radiated from a “point source” has the best stereo imaging

because the separation of the acoustical centers between the midrange
and tweeter for each channel is at the optimum. In a closed environment
such as an automobile, horizontal speaker alignment (Figure 2-A) 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 midrange and tweeter. With a verti­cal alignment (Figure 2-B), the path length difference between the

Mounting Location

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 recommendations should be followed.

• Place the speakers where they have a direct path to the listening area

• For the best integration between the midrange 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 speaker's
ability to reproduce the frequency range
around the crossover frequency of the sys­tem.

• Whenever possible, place the tweeter direct-

ly above or below the midrange as this max­imizes the imaging (point source) capability
of the speakers (Figure 2)

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.

INTRODUZIONE — ITALIANO

Questo manuale fornisce informazioni sulle caratteristiche e sul instal­lazione dei tweeters Fanatic P, X e Q. Vi suggeriamo di conservare questo
manuale come riferimento futuro.

Raccomandiamo fortemente che is tweeter sia installato dal vostro rivendi­tore Rockford Fosgate. Se scegliete di procedere con l'installazione da soli,
leggete attentamente tutto il manuale prima di proseguire.

• Per ottenere la miglior integrazione tra
tweeter e midrange, vi suggeriamo di
posizionare i due componenti a meno di 5
cm tra loro. (Figura 1)

-3dB di livello del tweeter riduce l'effi­cienza del tweeter -3dB lmeno del
midrange (es.: ideale per tweeter
posizionati nella parte alta delle portiere
e midrange molto bassi nelle tasche)

Lampadina di protezione tweeter La
lampadina funge da fusibile di pro­tezione contro i sovraccarichi. Se la
lampadina si rompe, toglierla e
inserirne una nuova (codice
n.HDW10932) nei fermi.

•

-3dB/-6dB di livello del tweeter per
abbassarne l'efficienza di 3dB o 6dB
rispetto al midrange(es.: ideale per
tweeter posizionati nella parte alta delle
portiere e midrange molto bassi nelle
tasche)

•

La fase del tweeter a 0/180° ne accop­pia la corretta fase al midrange (tipica­mente quando i due componenti sono
lontani tra loro). Posizionate l'interruttore
nella posizione a cui corrisponde il
miglior suono.
