The EXACT5 Midrange/Woofer can be mounted on the front or rear of a panel; gaskets are

provided for both options. The bolt hole configuration will fit a variety of standard OEM patterns
THE EXACT5
making it ideal for direct replacement. Best performance is achieved when the speaker is
securely mounted to a door panel or rear deck. There should be no gaps between the speaker
MIDRANGE-
and the mounting surface, as this will impair its low frequency performance. Be certain that both

the panel and the speaker are securely mounted to prevent unwanted vibration.
1) Mark the speaker location by using the template provided.
2) Cut the opening and debur the edges with a file.
3) Hold the speaker in place against the mounting surface and mark the mounting bolt holes.
4) Drill the appropriate size pilot holes for the screws provided.
5) Make all speaker connections prior to mounting the speaker to the panel. Since the die-
cast basket of the EXACT5 is rigid and will not flex, it is possible to affix the woofer to the
panel with less than eight screws (however, you will need to use a minimum of four
screws to assure a good seal).
6) Place the EXACT5 into the trim ring, make the speaker wire connections, then install the
speaker/trim ring assembly to the panel using the screws provided. Affix the grille.
7) When routing speaker cables to the driver, it is important to form a drip loop in the cable
below the level of the driver to keep water from reaching it. See Figure 6.
