INTRODUCTION

This manual contains information on the construction, installation and
operation of the Punch High Performance (HPC) Full Range Speakers.
We recommend you keep this manual for future reference.

The Punch High Performance Full Range Speakers are a line of coaxial
(two-way) and triaxial (three-way) speakers designed to improve the
performance of factory installed car stereo systems. Sized to fit most
automotive applications, the Punch High Performance Full Range Speak­ers provide the first step to upgrading your factory system.

INSTALLATION

Since some of these Punch High Performance Full Range Speakers are
most often used as direct replacements for stock speakers and are shipped
without grilles, some of the following instructions will not apply. For
custom installations see your Authorized Rockford Fosgate Dealer.

1. Determine where the speakers will be mounted. Ensure an area large
enough for the speaker to mount evenly. Be sure that the mounting
location is deep enough for the speaker to fit; if mounting in a door,
operate all functions (windows, locks, etc.) through their entire oper­ating range to ensure there is no obstruction.

2. Refer to the specification chart to determine the proper diameter hole
to cut for your speaker model.

3. Using the plastic mounting ring as a template, mark the locations for

the mounting screws. Drill the holes with a 1/8" bit.

4. Feed the speaker wires through the cutout and the plastic mounting

ring (from the flat side) and connect to the speaker terminals. Be sure
to observe proper polarity when connecting the wires. The speaker's
positive terminal is indicated with a (+) or colored dot.
