Xtant Technologies XSC Owners manual

Xtant Slim Components offer the flexibility of being
installed in a number of applications. The very shallow
mounting depth of the woofer allows mounting in
shallow doors. In addition, the variable mount tweeter
and built in attenuation circuit allow the user to cus­tomize the system to his / her listening taste. Please
refer to the options below when installing the Xtant
Slim Components.

Dispersion Module Option

The Xtant Slim Components offer two tweeter dis­persion modules for flexibility in mounting position.
The smaller module allows for a wider dispersion of
sound where as the larger option narrows the disper­sion field thereby giving a more direct sound pattern.
In many applications, we have found with door mount­ed locations, a wider dispersion pattern works well. In
contrast, a narrower dispersion pattern works well in
direct radiating situations. Both options are provided
to meet your listening needs.

Speaker Protection

Speaker grills are provided for use in protecting the
drivers when the components are mounted some­where other than the existing factory locations.

Mounting the Driver

The most important factor in achieving good acoustic
response is properly mounting the driver. Be sure that

the speaker is mounted to a
solid baffle in order to isolate
the front sound wave from the
back sound wave. This can be
achieved by creating a solid,
airtight seal between the speak­er and its mount. Please review
the tweeter mounting options at the
end of this section.

Wiring the Driver and Crossover

It is important to use good quality speaker wire
when installing speakers. Additionally, a tight connec­tion is very important in speaker installations. A loose
connection can cause a speaker to cut in and out or
become distorted and harsh.

A 12db per octave two-way crossover is included in
the Xtant Slim Components. When using the XSC
crossover with these speakers, run a positive and neg­ative speaker lead from the amplifier (if no external
amplifier, use speaker outputs from source unit) to the
input section of the crossover. Wire a second set of
leads from each of the tweeter and woofer positions to
their corresponding drivers. The tweeter option allows
the installer to choose a +3db, 0, or –3db setting in
order to customize the driver for all vehicle types.
