Important recommendations
Before attempting any installation
work,
it IS very
important
to
verify
how
much space
IS
available
to
fit the speakers into the vehicle.
Key
points:
•For direct
replacement
of
original
speakers, please check there
is
enough
space
for
your
new Focal speakers and grilles.
•Ensure the speaker
is
clean
from
debris
and
metallic particles that maybe attached
(especially after drilling)
•Use the
foam
gasket supplied (inside the grille),
for
airtight
placement
of
the speaker into
the panel.
Choice
of
installation and positioning of speakers
To
achieve best results
for
your
installation, please
follow
these simple guidelines
•Speakers positioned in the most
forward
location
possible,
for
correct staging.
•
When
installing Polyglass coaxial speakers into the rear
of
the vehicle (rear parcel shelf
or
left and right quarters), the left
and
right speakers should always be positioned
far
apart
from
each other,
and
the most
forward
possible,
to
the listener.
If installed into the
rear
parcel shelf, the speakers must be fixed rigidly in place. If holes are to
be cut into the parcel shelf, ensure it
is
still strong
enough
to accept the speakers. The panel
must remain strong, rigid,
and
free
from
any vibrations. If the parcel shelf
is
allowed
to
flex, a
possible acoustic short circuit, may
occur
drastically decreasing the speakers performance.
Orientation
of
the tweeter
The tweeter includes a
rotational
and
adjustable tilt
mechanism,
that
gives the user a
huge
advantage
in
deciding
the position the tweeter points, ultimately
changing
the strength
of
the high frequencies
produced.
Simply by carefully turning
and
twisting the tweeter into
position ensures it
is
on
axis
to
the listeners ears.
Thus:
•obtains correct integration
of
the system
•optimise the sound stage
image.
