Tweeter
1. 3/4" Silk Dome Tweeter –Toensure accurate highfrequencyreproduction,the
tweeter dome must be both light and strong. The Fanatic X Component Systems
use a silk dome that has extremely low mass and high strength for smooth high
frequency reproduction.
2. Ferrofluid Cooling – This synthetic fluid is held in place in the magnetic gap. It
bathes the voice coil allowing higher power handling and greater reliability.
3. Neodymium Magnet –What goodwoulda tweeterbe ifitwas toobigto mount
in your favorite spot? The Fanatic Component Systems use a highly efficient
neodymiummagnettoenableaverysmalltweetertohaveverybigperformance.

7. Large 1" Voice Coil with Anodized Aluminum Former – Just like all

M OUNTING L OCATION
Asolidfrontstagewithagoodimageisoneofthemostdifficulttaskstoachieve
inavehicle.Nocarhastheoptimumlisteningenvironment.Thismakesproper
sound staging very difficult to accomplish. Most speakers tend to be placed
where they will fit easily, as opposed to where they can perform the best. The
mountinglocationofyourspeakerswillhaveagreateffectonthesoundquality
of your stereo system. The special care taken to place the speakers will yield
many hours of listening enjoyment in return. Several important recommenda-
tions should be followed.
• Placethespeakerswheretheyhaveadirect
path to the listening area.
• Forthebestintegrationbetweenthemidrange
and tweeter, the tweeter should be placed
lessthan 2" fromthemidrange. (Figure1)
• If you cannot place the tweeter less than 2"
from the midrange, then place the tweeter
more than 7" from the midrange. Placing
the tweeter 2"-7" from the midrange can
cause destructive interference (frequency
response problems) which will affect the
speaker's ability to reproduce the frequency range around the crossover
frequency of the system.
• Wheneverpossible,placethetweeterdirectlyaboveorbelowthemidrange
as this maximizes the imaging (point source) capability of the speakers.

• Soundradiatedfroma“pointsource”hasthemostoptimumstereoimaging
becausetheseparationoftheacousticalcentersbetweenthemidrangeand
tweeter for each channel is at the optimum. Figure 2-A describes a
horizontal speaker alignment. In a closed environment such as an
automobile,horizontalspeakeralignmentcancausesevereamplitudeand
phase differences which will degrade not only the imaging, but also the
frequency response. This is due to the path length differences between the
midrangeandtweeter.Figure2-Bdisplaysaverticalalignmentbetweenthe

between the midrange and tweeter are reduced to a minimum. The result
isanegligibledifferenceinpathlengthsbetweenthemidrangeandtweeter
regardless of the proximity of the listener to the speakers. Mounting the
speaker with minimum path length difference will ensure the best staging
and imaging possible from your audio system.

1. Cut the proper size hole for the midrange/woofer.
• For the FNX-1404, cut an 90.48mm (39⁄16") diameter hole
• For the FNX-1405, cut a 113.50mm (415⁄32") diameter hole
• For the FNX-1406F, cut a 127mm (5") diameter hole
• For the FNX-1406, cut a 139.06mm (51⁄2") diameter hole
2. Placethemounting ringover themounting holeand markthelocationof
the screw mounting holes.
3. Remove the ring. Drill the holes for the screws using a 1/8" drill bit.
4. Route the wire through the hole.
5. Place the mounting ring over the hole.
6. Attach the wires and be sure to observe the proper speaker polarity.
7. Place the speaker into the hole and screw the speaker into place. Be
careful not to bend the speaker frame during this step.
8. Press the speaker grille into the mounting ring.

• The Fanatic Component Systems are optimized for full range music reproduc-
tion. In cases where a subwoofer is used, the midrange can be bandpassed in
order to prevent overlapping frequencies from the midrange into the
subwoofer.
1.Determine the frequency range that the subwoofer will play (i.e.: 20Hz-80Hz)
2.Use the low-pass crossover frequency of the subwoofer system (i.e.: 80Hz) as
the high-pass crossover frequency for the midrange
3.Select the appropriate capacitor value (i.e.: 500µF) to properly bandpass the
midrange
4.Place the capacitor in series with the “+” terminal of the speaker
