force the frame into a hole that is too small! Do
not tighten the speaker onto an uneven surface! This
will damage your speakers. The speaker should also
fit so that no air leaks around the mounting flange.
Air leaks will cause a severe degradation in sound
quality. Seal any air leaks with silicone, rope caulk or
similar sealant material.
Connect the speaker wires, observing correct
polarity, and install the speaker and grille tray
as shown.
Hand-tighten the screws evenly to avoid
bending the speaker frame!
CROSSOVER NETWORK
INSTALLATION:
The crossover networks supplied with your XR
System should be installed in a dry location of your
vehicle. DO NOT INSTALL THEM INSIDE OF A
DOOR! Doors often get wet on the inside, which
can damage your crossover networks and could
potentially damage your entire sound system.The
crossovers can be screwed into a solid surface via
two holes located under the protective cover of the
case.To access these holes, simply squeeze the sides
of the cover while gently pulling the cover away
from the base. Make sure that your mounting
location will not cause damage to wiring, fuel lines,
brake lines or any other vital component of your
vehicle. Once you have screwed the case in, snap
the protective cover back into place.
If screwing the crossovers networks in is not
possible, you can also run the supplied nylon wire
ties through the mounting holes to attach the
crossovers to a structure in your car. To do so, take
the covers off, attach the wire ties, and then snap
the covers back into place, lining the wire ties up
with the slots on the sides of the protective cover.
Make sure that you do not attach the crossovers to
a moving part or to any part that may interfere with
pedal operation, gear shift operation, steering, or
airbag deployment.
For wiring instructions, refer to the diagram on
pages 2 & 3 of this manual.

TWEETER INSTALLATION:

The dome tweeters supplied with your XR570-
CSi system have been designed for maximum
mounting versatility. There are two primary
methods by which the tweeters can be mounted in
your vehicle:
1) Flush Mounted, using the supplied flush-
mount cup and hardware.This application will
yield a custom-installed appearance, but will
require at least 3/4" (19 mm) of clearance
behind the mounting surface of the tweeter.
2) Surface Mounted, using the supplied surface
mount kit and hardware. In this application,
you will not need to cut holes in your vehicle's
panels for the tweeters.You will only need to
drill a hole for the wires and for the two
mounting screws.This application is useful
when mounting the tweeters to a panel that
has insufficient clearance behind it for the
tweeter's magnet structure.
Run speaker wires from the tweeter output of
the crossover to the desired tweeter mounting
locations, observing the same precautions as
mentioned in the woofer installation section.
Terminate the wires with the supplied 2.8 mm male
crimpable connectors.
