Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and longevity of your TWS4 tweeters. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified car audio technician.

Before Installation:

• Disconnect the vehicle's battery to prevent electrical shorts.
• Ensure the mounting location is suitable and does not obstruct any vehicle safety features or wiring.
• Verify the impedance of the tweeters (4-ohms) is compatible with your amplifier or head unit.

Wiring Connections:

The TWS4 tweeters are designed for a corded electric power source. Connect the tweeter wires to the appropriate outputs of your amplifier or crossover network. Observe correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative) to ensure proper phase and sound quality.

• Positive (+) Wire: Typically marked or indicated.
• Negative (-) Wire: Typically marked or indicated.

If using an external crossover, ensure the tweeters are connected to the high-pass output. Do not connect tweeters directly to a full-range signal without a high-pass filter, as this can cause damage.

Mounting:

The tweeters can be surface mounted or flush mounted depending on your vehicle's interior and aesthetic preference. Use the provided mounting hardware securely. Ensure the tweeters are aimed towards the listening area for best sound imaging.

Operating Instructions

Once installed, the TWS4 tweeters operate as part of your car's audio system. Their primary function is to reproduce high-frequency sounds (treble).

• Initial Power-Up: After installation, reconnect the vehicle's battery. Turn on your car audio system at a low volume.
• Volume Adjustment: Gradually increase the volume to a comfortable listening level. Avoid excessively high volumes that cause distortion, as this can damage the tweeters.
• Sound Customization: Use your head unit's or amplifier's equalizer settings to fine-tune the treble output to your preference. Start with flat settings and make small adjustments.

The TWS4 tweeters are designed to handle up to 200 watts PEAK power and 110 watts RMS power. Ensure your amplifier's output does not exceed these ratings to prevent damage.

Maintenance

The Soundstream TWS4 tweeters require minimal maintenance to ensure long-term performance.

• Cleaning: Periodically wipe the tweeter grilles with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Inspection: Occasionally check the wiring connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
• Environmental Factors: While designed for automotive use, avoid exposing the tweeters to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures. The product is not waterproof.
