2 The EXC Component Speaker System is the result of highly focused engineering effort. Each element of the EXC system repres ents several advances in automotive speake r technology. When the EXC project was initiated, the following goals were established: • High performance sound reproduction in the automotive environment.
LOCATION AND MOUNTING 3 The first step in a successful installation is thorough planning. Choose the location for your speaker components carefully. Follow these suggestions to ensure proper imaging and the best performance: • Select a location where each tweeter and midrange/woofer can be mounted close to each other.
TWEETER SURFACE MOUNTING 4 1) Remove the tweeter's plastic backplate by separating the plate from the tweete r housing with your two thumbnails at one of the terminal locations, gently prying the two pieces until they snap apart.
INSTALLING THE EXC MIDRANGE- WOOFER 5 The EXC Midrange/Woofer can be mounted on the front or rear of a panel; gaskets are provided for both options. The bolt-hole configuration will fit a variety of standard OEM patterns making it ideal for direct replacement.
