Tweeter Mounting: The tweeter can be mounted one of three ways: fl ush, surface and angled
mounting. For fl ush mounting applications, choose a fl at location on the panel with space behind the
panel to allow room for the mounting nut. After checking the clearances, cut the appropriate mounting
hole diameter in the panel (see the chart below). Place the shorter mounting nut behind the panel. Feed
the wire through the hole in the panel and the mounting nut. Mount the tweeter by screwing the mounting
nut onto the tweeter.

For surface mounting applications use the surface mount cup as a template and pre-drill two 7/64"
(2.5mm) screw holes for attaching the mounting cup to the panel, and a 5/16" (8mm) hole for the wires.
Two #8 fl athead stainless steel sheet metal screws are supplied to attach the mounting cup to the panel.
Position the tweeter over the mounting cup and press it into position.

Surface Mounting the Tweeter
For angled mounting applications choose a fl at location on the panel with space behind the panel to
allow room for the mounting nut and back angle ring. After checking the clearances, cut the appropriate
mounting hole diameter in the panel (see the chart below). Place the front angle ring (does not fi t through
the longer tweeter mounting nut) in front of the panel. Then place the wire and tweeter through the front
angle ring and into the panel. Next place the wire through the back angle ring (fi ts through the longer
tweeter mounting nut), place the back angle ring over the rear of the tweeter, and line-up the narrow
part of the front angle ring for the preferred angle of operation. Place the wire through the longer tweeter
mounting nut and loosely tighten the mounting nut around the tweeter. Rotate all the parts in unison until
the tweeter is angled in the desired direction. Secure the assembly by tightening the tweeter mounting
nut.
