features of your 3-series loudspeaker molded woofer basket - the back bone of any good woofer is it’s basket. It provides the proper alignment and support structure for the magnet while the very thin braces guarantee a minimum of early reflections off the basket that would be ordinarily transmitted as sonic colorations through the cone.
amplifier requirements a note on power handling Each 3-series speaker system requires a minimum of 20 Watts per channel to achieve reasonable listening volumes in a moving automobile without clipping the amplifier. a/d/s/ recommends 150 Watts per channel as a maximum so as not to exceed the thermal or mechanical limitations of the speaker system.
bi-wire connections to the crossover network connections to the woofer and tweeter are the same as the normal wiring method. Connect the amplifier to the tweeter to the terminals marked tweeter input. Connect the woofer amplifier to the woofer input terminals with another run of wire. Important note - you must cut the jumpers that connect the low frequency and high frequency sections of the crossover.
termination The woofer and the tweeter use .187 spade lugs for electrical connections. Use standard .187 female quick disconnects to attach wires to the speaker. speaker mounting woofer installation The 3-series woofer will fit into standard factory mounting locations using the existing mounting holes in the automobile.
crossover installation bi-wiring / bi-amping The 3-series allows conventional wiring, bi-wiring, or bi-amping using the supplied passive crossovers. While conventional wiring will provide excellent sound, bi-wiring or bi-amping will further enhance the performance in no-compromise systems. Bi-wiring uses a separate pair of speaker wires for the high frequency and low frequency signal between an amplifier channel and its associated crossover network.
Feel free to experiment with the position that gives you the most pleasing sound quality. NOTE: this feature only applies to the 335im, and 336im. The tweeter of the 334im does not rotate.
