5. Installasiehandleiding
5.1 Oorwegings voor installasie
- Voertuigversoenbaarheid: Ensure the CX100 speakers are compatible with your vehicle's speaker openings. Adapters may be required for certain vehicle models (e.g., BMW E91, Porsche 996).
- Gereedskap benodig: Basic hand tools (screwdrivers, wire strippers, crimpers), drill (if new holes are needed), and safety glasses.
- Amplifikasie: These speakers ideally require 30-50W RMS delivery from an amplifier. Consider a 120-150Hz High-Pass Filter (HPF) to optimize sound quality.
5.2 Montage-instruksies
- Toegang tot luidsprekerligging: Carefully remove door panels or dashboard components to access the factory speaker locations. Refer to your vehicle's service manual for specific instructions.
- Verwyder ou luidsprekers: Disconnect wiring and unmount the existing speakers.
- Toetspasvorm: Place the CX100 speakers into the opening to ensure a proper fit. If necessary, use speaker adapters.
- Bedrading: Connect the speaker wires. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative). The CX100 speakers have an impedance of 4 Ohm.
- Veilige Sprekers: Mount the CX100 speakers using the provided screws. Ensure they are securely fastened to prevent vibrations.
- Hermonteer: Reinstall vehicle components, ensuring no wires are pinched.
