MTX

recommends

that

you

have

your

new

speakers

installed

by

an

authorized

MTX

retailer,

preferably

MECP

certified.

If

you

do

decide

to

do

it

yourself,

make

sure

you

have

read

the

instructions

carefully

and

that

you

have

the

following

tools:

•

Electric

drill

•

Phillips

bit

or

screwdriver

•1/8"

bit

•

Door

panel

puller

•

Wire

cutters/crimpers

•

Metal

cutting

tool

•

Safety

glasses

•

2mm

hex

wrench

•

X-acto

knife

Throughout

installation,

keep

in

mind

the

ultimate

objective

of

creating

an

ideal

soundstage

and

exceptional

imaging.

This

refers

to

the

experience

you

get

when

you

sit

in

your

seat

with

your

head

up

and

shoulders

straight,

close

your

eyes,

and

listen.

Where

does

the

music

seem

to

be

coming

from?

In

an

ideal

world,

you

would

hear

all

music

from

front

and

center,

meaning

it

sounds

like

a

band

is

performing

on

your

hood.

Raising

the

soundstage

is

a

very

important

process

and

every

option

should

be

considered

in

order

to

have

your

sound

as

up

and

in

front

as

possible.

Removing

the

Door

Panel

Please

be

aware

that

today's

cars

have

door

panels

that

are

not

designed

to

come

apart

easily;

they

are

designed

by

the

factory

to

sit

tight

against

the

door

and

not

rattle.

It

is

important

to

note

that

if

the

proper

procedures

are

not

followed,

the

door

panels

can

easily

become

damaged

and

make

them

fit

improperly

when

you're

trying

to

reinstall

them.

Use

a

door

panel

puller

to

remove

the

door

panel,

and

be

aware

there

are

often

hidden

screws

that,

if

overlooked,

can

cause

the

panel

to

crack

or

break

when

force

is

applied

to

remove

the

door

panel.

It

might

be

a

good

idea

to

do

some

research

on

your

specific

car

to

be

sure

they

are

all

removed

before

continuing.

Even

a

new

car

owner

needs

to

be

aware

of

this

potential

issue.

Buying

a

new

door

panel

is

an

expensive

process

so

please

take

note

of

the

potential

for

damage.

With

the

door

panel

off,

it

is

a

perfect

time

to

add

sound

dampener.

The

main

goal

of

sound

dampeners

is

to

add

mass

to

the

metal

in

the

door,

causing

less

rattle

and

"ring"

which

will

help

to

improve

the

overall

sound

of

your

new

speakers.

It

also

helps

prevent

against

outside

noise

by

adding

insulation.

Sound

dampening

material

can

be

purchased

from

your

local

retailer

and

is

available

in

many

different

forms

and

kits,

for

many

different

applications.

Please

make

sure

you

purchase

the

correct

type

for

your

specific

project

Note:

Before

cutting

anything,

please

use

common

sense

and

make

sure

that

no

wires or

glass

will

interfere

with

cutting

tools.

ALWAYS

WEAR

PROPER

SAFETY

GlASSES.

Be

sure

allwires

are

clearof

moving

parts

such

as

window

crank

mechanisms

and

tmnk

hinges.

Use

rubber

grommets

when

running

wires

through

sharp

edged

metal

holes,

which

may

wear

through

the

wire's

insulation.

Do

not

mount

speakers

where

they

could

come

in

contact

with:

•

The

door's

window

glass

•

The

window

crank

handle

or

gear

assembly

when

rotated

•

The

trunk

springs,

shock

towers,

or

trunk

lid

•

The

gas

tank

or

fuel

lines

WOOFER

MOUNTING

To

get

the

best

possible

music

reproduction,

it

is

important

to

isolate

the

sound

that

is

produced

from

the

rear

of

the

speaker

from

the

sound

that

is

produced

from

the

front

of

the

speaker.

To

isolate

the

front

from

the

back

wave,

make

sure

the

speaker

is

mounted

in

a

baffle

or

plate,

so

that

the

back

of

the

speaker

is

in

a

sealed

chamber.

CROSSOVER

MOUNTING

When

choosing

the

mounting

location

of

the

crossover,

accessibility

is

important.

Some

adjustments

may

be

made

after

the

components

have

been

installed,

so

convenient

positioning

of

the

crossover

is

crucial.

Also,

the

crossover

has

electronic

components

that

must

be

mounted

so

it

does

not

come

in

contact

with

moisture.

WIRING

When

installing

these

woofers,

consider

the

age

of

the

factory

wiring

and

gauge

(size)

ofwire.lfthe

vehicle

is

an

older

model

or

was

pre-wired

with

small

wire

(

18

gauge

or

less),

running

new

high

performance

wire

(http://www.streetwires.com/products/speakerCable/microUitraCable.cfm)

will

be

necessary.

The

speaker

wire

should

run

from

the

amplifier's

output

terminals,

under

the

carpet

and

through

the

factory

rubber

boot

(loom)

that

protects

the

wires

in

the

inner

door

jam.

If

the

factory

boot

cannot

be

used,

take

other

measures

to

protect

these

wires

as

best

you

can.

Sometimes

the

door

has

to

be

completely

removed

to

use

the

factory

boot.

If

thi~

is

something

that

you

do

not

feel

comfortable

doing,

please

ask

a

professional

to

help

you.

The

wires

should

originate

from

the

amplifier

and

attach

to

the

cross~ver

inputs.

CRDSSDIIER CONNECTIONS

Included

with

each

TXC6.0

woofer

system

is

a

2-way

high-pass/low-pass

12dB

per

octave

crossover

network.

The

crossover

network

allows

the

TXC6.0

driver

to

recreate

frequencies

within

a

precisely-designed

range

so

that

it

does

not

become

distorted

by

trying

to

reproduce

frequencies

that

it

is

not

physically

able

to.

It

ensures

that

the

bass

driver

does

not

receive

high

frequencies

that

are

meant

for

the

midrange

and

tweeter.

The

high-pass/low-pass

12dB

per

octave

design

complements

the

TXC6.0

woofer

or

can

be

used

in

addition

to

a

TXC

component

system

to

provide

greater

musical

detail.

Note:

The

TXC6.0

crossover

system

flips

the

polarityof

the

High

Frequency

(HF}

outputs

so

that

the

3-way

system

sums

to

have

aflat

frequency

response.

Please

take

note

of

this

if

you

ever

add

an

.additional

TXC.

7

to

your

system.

With

the

TXC.

1,

you

will

have

to

flippolarity

on

the

output

of

the

additional

tweeter

to

sum

with

the

3-way

system.

Stand

Alone

System

When

using

the

TXC6.0

woofer

as

a

stand

alone

bass

driver,

connect

the

crossover

by

connecting

the

positive

and

negative

wires

from

the

amp

to

the

LF+

and

LF-

or

HF+

and

HF-

input

terminals

on

the

crossover

respectively.

Then

connect

the

woofer's

positive

and

negative

wires

to

the

LF+

and

LF-

output

terminals

on

the

crossover

respectively.

Three-Way

System

One

of

the

most

significant

features

of

the

TXC6.0

woofer

is

the

separate

crossover

and

its

ability

to

connect

to

a

2-way

TXC

system

and

become

a

true

3-way

system.

This

splits

the

lower

frequencies

between

the

existing

midrange

and

the

TXC6.0

woofer

to

make

each

speaker

responsible

for

fewer

frequencies

and

allows

clearer,

more

accurate

reproduction.

While

the

TXC's

sound

quality

is

already

the

best

in

the

market,

this

3-way

system

creates

an

even

better

musical

experience

with

more

precise

frequency

response.

When

creating

a

3-way

system

and

connecting

to

an

existing

TXC

2-way

crossover,

the

terminals

for

the

TXC6.0

woofer's

crossover

are

connected

in

between

the

amp

and

the

other

components'

crossover.

First,

connect

the

positive

and

negative

wires

from

the

amp

to

either

the

LF+

and

LF-

or

HF+

and

HF-

input

terminals

on

the

TXC6.0

crossover

respectively.

Next,

connect

the

positive

and

negative

wires

from

the

TXC6.0

woofer

to

the

LF+

and

LF-

output

terminals

on

the

crossover.

Finally,

connect

the

TXC6.0

crossover's

HF+

and

HF-

output

terminals

to

either

the

WF+

and

WF-

or

TW+

and

TW-

input

terminals

on

the

crossover

for

the

TXC

component

system.

See

the

CROSSOIIER

BI-AMP

CONFIGURATION

These

crossovers

feature

Bi-amp

connections

so

that

when

used

in

a

3-way

configuration

the

components

can

be

wired

to

drive

the

TXC6.0

woofer

and

the

TXC

component

system

independently

using

two

amplifiers.

When

using

the

3-way

components

in

the

Bi-Amp

configuration

you

are

going

to

need

two

stereo

amps

or

one

four

channel

amp

to

run

the

components.

You

will

need

to

remove

the

Bi-amp

jumpers

from

the

input

connection

points

of

the

TXC6.0

crossover.

Connect

the

desired

amp

or

channels

to

the

HF+

and

HF-

input

The

second

amplifier,

or

third

and

fourth

channels

of

the

4-channel

amplifier,

will

be

connected

to

the

LF+

and

LF-

input

on

the

crossover.

When

the

crossover

is

set

up

in

this

configuration,

the

final

load

will

be

4

ohms.

Note:

his

important

to

make

sure

the

gain

of

each

amplifier

is

matched.

Final

gain

level

adjustments

should

be

made

using

the

crossover

settings.

Note:

Adding

the

TXC6.0

woofer

to

afull

TXC

component

system

can

dramatically

affect

the

balance

between

your

tweeter

and

the

0,

_..and

6D

degree

setting

of

your

existing

midrange.

You

may

need

to

change

your

midrange

off-axis

settings

and

readjust

the

tweeter

attenuation

in

order

to

achieve

the

optimum

balance.
