Wiring Configurations; Subwoofer Crossovers - Rockford Fosgate M210S4 Installation & Operation Manual

IRING
By varying the wiring configuration of your speakers you can create an
impedance load to match your system. Altering the wiring configurations
gives a range of options for impedance loads. Series, Parallel, or
Series-Parallel wiring configurations are different techniques for wiring
speakers that provide different loads. Series configuration is a string
method where speakers are wired end to end. Parallel configuration
uses two or more speakers wired across common terminals.
Series-Parallel configuration combines both techniques. Choose the
wiring diagram that corresponds to the number of woofers and the
impedance of your amplifier.

SUBWOOFER CROSSOVERS

There are two operational types of crossovers, passive and active.
Passive crossovers (coils or inductors) are placed on the speaker leads
between the amplifier and speaker. An active crossover is an electronic
filter that separates the audio signal fed to different amplifiers. For
optimum subwoofer performance, we recommend using an active
80-100Hz low-pass crossover at 12dB/octave.

This should be done prior to mounting the trim ring over the speaker, since
NOTE:
the mounting screws will also hold the grille onto the trim ring.
1. Remove the four (4) screws holding the grille to the trim ring and pull away.
2. Reinstall the screws into the trim ring or keep in a safe place in case you wish to
