INSTALLATION
Installation Considerations before attempting to Install,
- Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before attempting to install these speakers.
- For safety. disconnect the negative battery terminal from the battery prior to beginning the installation.
- For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting speakers in place
- Use high-quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize signal or power loss.
- Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when working on any vehicle. If installing is in a boat, take care not to cut or drill through the main hull.
- Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the vehicle or hull area provides the best protection.
- Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic grommets to protect any wires routed through metal, especially the firewall.
Mounting
- Determine where the speakers will be mounted. Ensure an area large enough for the speaker to mount Be sure that the mounting location is deep enough for the speaker to fit: only mount to a flat surface. Use extra caution when mounting on panels with urethane foam.
- Refer to the specification chart to determine the proper diameter hole to cut for your speaker model.
- Mark the locations for the mounting mews. Drill the holes with a 118″ bit.
- Feed the speaker wires through the cutout and connect to the speaker terminals. Be sure to observe proper polarity when connecting the wires. The speaker’s positive terminal is indicated with a” +”.
- Fit the speaker and mount into place using six (6) screws.
- Tighten the screws until the speaker is snug in place

FAQs
In professional audio, coaxial loudspeakers allow sound from two drivers to emanate from a single source. In comparison to loudspeaker enclosures featuring physically isolated drivers, this feature enables a larger field of listening to a synchronized summation of speaker drivers.
Due to their ability to reproduce a wider range of audio frequencies from a single speaker, coaxial speakers are frequently referred to as “full-range” speakers. The drivers in these speakers are identical to those in component speakers, but they have been combined to save space and money.
These days, coaxial cables are quite widespread and can be found in every home. They can be used as speaker cables, TV antennas, modems, cable boxes, and for the transmission of audio and video signals.
You generally don’t need a second crossover if your automobile audio system uses coaxial speakers. The frequencies that reach each driver are already filtered by passive crossovers that are already present in full-range speakers. The built-in speaker crossovers should be more than enough, even if you add an amplifier to the mix.
If you’re searching for an all-in-one, reasonably-priced solution, coaxial speakers are a good option. However, because the tweeter and woofer are frequently not as well-matched as separate units, they typically have lower sound quality than component speakers.
Component speakers and coaxial speakers can be powered by your car radio without the need for an amplifier. However, an amp will enable you to get a much clearer sound without distortion, a louder volume, and power for a subwoofer, allowing you to get the most from your speakers.
As was already mentioned, coaxial speakers have a built-in tweeter that allows them to produce a variety of sounds from a single set of speakers. Component speakers work differently because they are designed to handle a specific type of sound, so the quality is much better.
You must take the core conductor wire and attach it to the speaker’s red (or positive) connector. With the other end of the cable in your hands, attach it to the identical color port on your receiver or amplifier.
Having a crossover, a tweeter, and a woofer all integrated into a single speaker assembly, a coaxial car speaker is a two-way speaker system.
The back of the car is typically where coaxial speakers are located.
One speaker is wrapped around another, which is referred to as coaxial. A woofer and a tweeter in the middle make up a standard two-way coaxial speaker. The lower frequencies are handled by the woofer, while the higher frequencies are handled by the tweeter.
There is no need to play a speaker at half power or low volumes for a lengthy period of time in order to facilitate or ease into this, even if it is true that the suspension of a speaker will loosen up with time.
You can include those tweeters without a doubt. To prevent blowing the low frequencies, you will need a high pass filter. The placement will be your biggest challenge, but it’s usually a good idea.
A loudspeaker with the high-frequency reproducer located in the middle of the low-frequency reproducer and on the same axis as it (as a high-frequency horn mounted in a paper cone speaker)
A coaxial speaker, to put it simply, combines a woofer and a tweeter into one component. There is an additional midrange driver in the three-way variant. On a pole that extends to the center, the tweeter and midrange speaker are mounted. They now have access to the entire audio spectrum in a small package.
