You have the option of configuring your speakers as a
coaxial system (tweeter attached) or a component system
(tweeter separate). If your choice is to use as a coax then
you will need to attach the tweeter to the midrange. Locate
the supplied tweeter post support and attach the tweeter as
show. Remove the rubber boot from the midrange; guide the
tweeter wires down through the middle of the midrange.
Guide the tweeter wires so that they lay in the groove of the
inside of the rubber boot as it replaced. Attach wires to the
proper terminals.

MIDRANGE MOUNTING
TWEETER MOUNTING
When flush mounting tweeters, make sure the desired
location can accommodate the hole size and depth
required. Mount the cup using provided hardware. Mount
surface cup at desired angle with provided screws in
tweeter mounting kit. Route speaker wires through
tweeter cup, connect tweeter to wires, and snap tweeter
into cup by aligning the notches.
Mounting Hole size: 1.36” (34.5mm) Dia.
Determine a location in the door that will accept
the size of your new speaker. Remove the door
panel from the door and check for clearance in
the intended speaker location while operating
window all the way up and down. Avoid cutting
any structural metal to mount the speakers or
to accommodate additional depth. If depth or a
flat surface mount are an issue, please seek the
skills of a professional installation technician.
If you are mounting the speakers in the rear of the
vehicle, there are often two options for achieving
a good mount. Some speakers mount from the top
side (from the interior) while other applications have
the speakers mounted from the bottom side (from
the trunk). In either case, a flat mounting surface and
a good seal are still extremely important.
SYSTEM CONNECTION
D65C
Each D crossover has a tweeter attenuation jumper and a phase adjustment located under the
removable cover. Choose “0” or “-2dB”. If the tweeter is significantly closer to the listener than the
midrange, this adjustment should improve the frequency level balance.
D365C
Each DAT3X crossover has a tweeter phase switch located under the removable cover. Choose “0”
or “180”. This adjustment may improve frequency response depending on the tweeter mounting
location relative to the midrange.
