INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION EXPERIENCE
Installation of Bass Habit speakers may require experience with a variety of mechanical procedures including
enclosure construction. This manual only provides general installation and operation instructions. If you have
any reservations about your installation skills, please contact your local authorized Bass Habit dealer for help.
CHOOSING SPEAKER MOUNTING LOCATIONS
Choosing the correct speaker mounting location will have the greatest effect of the sound quality of the
system. There are many different considerations needed when choosing the location(s) that best meet your
needs. The location(s) must be large enough for the speakers to fit. Care is needed to ensure that the desired
location will not affect either the mechanical or electrical operation of the vehicle.
WARNING! The use of silicone rubber to seal in a speaker will void the warranty. If any sealing is needed in
addition to the speaker’s gasket, use caulking cord or vinyl weather strip.
PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION
NOTE! The tools listed below may be required for basic installation:
• An electric drill with bits.
• Saber and jig saw.
• Phillips-head and standard screwdrivers.
• Wire strippers.
• Crimping tool and needle-nose pliers.
• Closed cell weather-stripping (for the speakers), Silicone sealant (for enclosures).
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
NOTE! Proceed only if you are a qualified installer, otherwise let your dealer do it.
• Always wear protective eyewear when using tools.
• Turn off all stereo and other electrical devices before you begin.
• Disconnect the (-) negative lead from your vehicle’s battery.
• Keep the speakers in the package until final installation, and always rest it with the cone facing up.
• Never use force when installing a speaker.
• Locate all fuel lines, brake lines, oil lines and electrical cables when planning your installation.
DOOR MOUNTING
When checking for possible speaker locations in the doors, check the operation of the window and all assem-
blies. There is also a stabilizer stop bar in between the door and the door jam. This bar prevents the door from
opening too far.
The mounting surface must be flat

INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLING THE MIDRANGE DRIVER
1) Determine where the speaker will be mounted. Make sure there is a flat area large enough for the speaker
to fit properly. An uneven mounting surface can damage the driver.
2) Check to make sure the space you have selected for the speaker will not interfere with vehicle operation.
3) If a template is included in the packaging, use the template and mark the hole with a pen.
4) Cut the hole for the speaker. A hole can be cut either with a pair of metal tin snips, a saber or jig saw.
5) Run speaker wire (not included) to the speaker. Make sure to keep wires away from sharp metal or other
rough edges. When passing through metal, use a grommet to protect the wires from sharp edges.
6) Pre drill the mounting holes using a 1/8” (3mm) drill bit.
7) Pull the wire through the speaker opening and connect to the speaker. Be sure to observe proper polarity.
8) Mount the speaker using good quality screws.
RECOMMENDED ELECTRONIC CROSSOVER SETTINGS
For optimum performance of your midrange driver we recommend the following crossover frequency point
setting on each model. NOTE: Crossover settings will vary based on the speaker size.
SE165M HPF (High Pass) Crossover recommendation: 105Hz / 12dB or higher
SE200M HPF (High Pass) Crossover recommendation: 95Hz / 12dB or higher
SE250M HPF (High Pass) Crossover recommendation: 75Hz / 12dB or higher

Parallel and Series-Parallel wiring.
WIRING EXAMPLES
Your SE165M/SE200M/SE250M midrange driver uses a single 4 ohm voice coil. It is important to know the limits
of your amplifier to optimize its performance. You can vary the impedance by altering the wiring configura-
tions: Series, Parallel or Series-Parallel. Choose the wiring diagram below that corresponds to the number of
speakers in your system and the impedance stability of your amplifier.
