The EXC Component Speaker System is the result of highly focused engineering effort. Each element of the EXC system represents several advances in automotive speaker technology. When the EXC project was initiated, the following goals were established: EXC • High performance sound reproduction in the automotive environment. DESIGN • Ease of installation • Superb ergonomics and visual appeal. • High output capability • Ability to "tailor" sound to each vehicle Throug

LOCATION The first step in a successful installation is thorough planning. Choose the location for AND your speaker components carefully. Follow these suggestions to ensure proper imaging MOUNTING and the best performance: • Select a location where each tweeter and midrange/woofer can be mounted close to each other. A good rule of thumb is a maximum of one foot from midrange/woofer to tweeter. • Choose a location that offers the least amount of sound obstruction. • Try to

1) Remove the tweeter's plastic backplate TWEETER by separating the plate from the tweeter SURFACE housing with your two thumbnails at one MOUNTING of the terminal locations, gently prying the two pieces until they snap apart. See Figure 3. 2) Mark the location in which you are going to mount the tweeter using the supplied template and drill holes for each of the two wires. Also drill small "pilaf' holes for FIGURE 3 the two mounting screws. 3) Mount the backplate with

The EXC Midrange/Woofer can be mounted on the front or rear of a panel; gaskets are provided INSTALLING for both options. The bolt-hole configuration will fit a variety of standard OEM patterns making it THE EXC ideal for direct replacement. Best performance is achieved when the speaker is securely mounted MIDRANGE- to a door panel or rear deck. There should be no gaps between the speaker and the mounting WOOFER surface, as this will impair its low frequency performance. Be

MOUNTING The EXC Passive Crossover can be mounted in virtually any location inside the vehicle. Be sure not to mount the EXC system crossover outside the vehicle, or in a location THE EXC where it may be exposed to dirt or moisture (e.g., the engine compartment, inside a CROSSOVER wheel housing, inside a door, at the bottom of a leaky trunk).

EXC System Wiring Diagram WIRING Figure 8 shows a diagram illustrating the wiring of the EXC Component Speaker System. It is important to make sure that all connections are in phase; that is positive (+) is connected to positive (+), and negative (-) is connected to negative (-), since an out-of- phase connection will cause a dislocated image and low bass output. We suggest using a minimum of 16 gauge (ideally 12 gauge) premium cable. The connectors provided with this syst

NOTES ON Bi-Wiring The EXC component system includes the BI-AMPING EXC passive crossover which is optimized for the speakers. The EXC crossover allows for dual amp inputs. See Figure 9. This feature allows for a 4 channel amplifier or two 2 channel amplifiers to power the four individual drivers of an EXC .6 system. The benefit of this is added dynamics and level setting flexibility. A head unit's fader control could be used as a tweeter level control. (See note about cross

Bi-Amping NOTES ON True bi-amping can also be accomplished with an BI-AMPING external electronic crossover. See Figure 10. (CONTD.) Even greater dynamics can be realized with bandwidth-limited amplifiers. If your decide to bi- amp, please follow the recommendations below: 1) Use at least a 12dB/octave high pass filter no higher than 1500 Hz on the tweeters. 2) Use at least a 12dB/octave low pass filter no lower than 6000 Hz on the woofers.
