ECHNICAL E S I G N E AT U R E S Titanium Dome The titanium dome used in the Power tweeter allows the voice coil assembly to efficiently dissipate heat. This feature allows the tweeter to be driven at higher operating levels without sacrificing sound quality. - Page 6 Midrange Features TPR Rubber Surround TPR (Thermal Plastic Rubber) is resilient to temperature variations and provides a consistent support necessary for the linear motion of the speaker cone. In addition, the inherent damping capabilities elimi- nates the transmission of sonic disturbances between the cone and the frame of the speaker.
- Page 7 Silver Powder Coat Finish Powder coating has long been the industry standard for durability in protective metal finishes. A dry powder (non-aerosol) is electrostati- cally applied to the metal and “baked” on to provide a hard “shell- like” finish. As an additional benefit, powder coating is the only finishing process that releases no toxic chemicals into our ozone.
- Page 8 Zobel Network The Zobel network compensate for the impedance rise presented by the driver (speaker). The network flattens out the gradual impedance rise produced by the voice coil which typically results in high frequency rolloff. The Zobel Network compensates for this natural rolloff which allows the driver to produce a more linear response up to the tweeter crossover point.

Page 11: Mounting Location
OUNTING OCATION 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. -
Page 12: Installation
• Sound radiated from a “point source” has the most optimum stereo imaging because the separation of the acoustical centers between the midrange and tweeter for each channel is at the optimum. Figure 2-A describes a horizontal speaker alignment. In a closed environ- ment such as an automobile, horizontal speaker alignment can cause severe amplitude and phase differences which will degrade not only the imaging, but also the frequency response. -
