Wiring diagram seen from copperside

The following tools are needed to connect up the
wires and assemble the crossover:
•Soldering iron, 30–50 watts
•Solder for electronic components
•Side-cutters
•Pencil
•Crosshead screwdriver
•Tape measure
•Drill ∅2.5 mm
First, cut the wires to the correct length (see table).

Next, strip 10 mm of the insulation from all ends, twist
the strands together and tin the ends.
Now the tinned wire ends can be soldered onto the
copper connectors on the crossover circuit board. To
do so, place the crossover on the table in front of you
so that the copper-coated tracks are facing up. Use
the wiring layout to identify the individual soldering
points on the copper connectors. It makes sense to
mark the copy connectors with a pencil to prevent
incorrect connections (e.g. "IN +" etc.).
Now solder the corresponding wire end to the
connection point on the board using the soldering iron
and adding a blob of solder. Make sure the solder
does not run across onto the adjacent connectors as
this will cause a shortcut. Also ensure the wires, each
of which is either marked in red or unmarked, is
correctly soldered as shown in the wiring layout.
When you have completed all soldering, check each
wire again against the wiring layout.
The completed crossover can now be inserted in the
speaker cabinet. Instructions on where to place it in
the cabinet are in the instructions for each specific kit.
When connecting the wires to the speaker, it is
essential to make sure they are connected up the right
way round. The plus connection of the chassis bears
a marking, either a red or white spot, or a red terminal
post or a plus sign. If the terminal tags on the
loudspeaker are of different widths, the broader of the
two is plus. The red wire of the two making up the
loudspeaker wire must be connected to this plus
terminal.
