Installation

Installing the Speakers

Your new Cerwin Vega Mobile series speakers were designed with the flexibility to be installed in multiple locations. However, to ensure the best performance possible, it is important to isolate the front sound waves of the speaker from its rear sound waves. This is done by securely mounting the speaker to a flat surface known as a baffle. Make sure to seal the speaker to ensure there are no air leaks around its frame.

Selecting a Location

If your vehicle has existing factory locations, the easiest method would be to replace them with the exact same size speaker.

In the case where there is not a factory speaker location, there are many places where the speakers will fit in a vehicle, but they are not always the best locations for good sound. Make sure to take the time to select the best locations possible.

Mounting the speakers so that they are equal distance from your ears will achieve the best results. If you experience any difficulties, please consult with your local authorized Cerwin-Vega Mobile dealer. They have the tools and know-how to help

Door Mounting (if not using factory locations)

Prior to cutting, remove the panel from the door and check for clearance in the in the intended installation area, making sure the window will go all the way up and down without any interference. Avoid cutting any structural metal support or braces to mount the speakers. We HIGHLY recommend that for the BEST sound you put a sound deadening mat on the door “skin”

(as shown below). The more “damped” your car is.... the better it will ultimately sound!!!

Installation

Rear Deck Mounting

There are two primary methods for mounting speakers in the rear deck of a vehicle, top and bottom mounting. Top mounting requires dropping the speakers in through the deck (interior) while bottom mounting secures the speakers from underneath

(trunk). Either method requires a good seal around the frame for the best performance.

Running New Wiring

In most cases when mounting new speakers you will use the factory supplied wiring, but if new wires have to be run there are some precautions that need to be taken. If the wire needs to run through metal, such as a door jamb, always use a grommet to prevent damage to your wires. Never run wire through bare metal! This can damage the source unit, amp, or even the speakers themselves. Safety of the wiring against short circuits is THE MOST IMPORTANT INSTALLATION CONCERN.

Crossover Programing

Each H650C component set comes with a pair of programmable crossovers specifically designed to work with the midrange speaker and tweeter. Under the top cover there is a tweeter jumper with two possible configurations. -2 dB tweeter attenuation can be achieved by moving the “TWEETER” jumper to the -2dB position. The default “reference” position has no attenuation effect on the tweeter or is 0 dB.

Tweeter Installation

When flush or surface mounting tweeters, make sure the desired location can accommodate the hole sizes and depth required. The tweeter can also be surface mounted atop the dash, door, or rear deck. Mount cup using the provided hardware, flush mount illustration shown below. The flush mount bezel requires cutting a

1.75” (45mm) round opening. Be sure there is AT LEAST 1 INCH (25.4mm) behind the panel so the tweeter has adequate clearance. Remember when using a hole saw the thickness of the saw teeth will add to the cut diameter. Mount the surface cup at the desired angle with provided screws in the tweeter mounting kit. Route speaker wires through tweeter cup, connect the tweeter to wires, and snap the tweeter into the cup by aligning the notches in the tweeter cup with the notches in the tweeter base.. Be careful not to push on the center of the tweeter grill.

Crossover Installation

Install in a well ventilated area whenever possible. If you must install the passive crossovers in the doors due to the use of factory wiring. As you “feed” into the door cavity, ensure that the crossover is installed behind the door panel instead of inside the door itself. This will offer the greatest capacity for avoiding any water damage caused by rain or moisture. Also avoid placing it near factory wiring looms to ensure no radiated noise problems. Connect the input side labeled “AMP” of each passive crossover to the amplifier’s speaker output terminals. Be sure to observe correct polarity for positive and negative terminals. Next, connect the middle terminals labeled “MID” to the midrange speaker. Be sure that the wiring is protected all the way to the terminal and that the wires are secure at both the speaker and passive crossover. Finally, connect the end terminals on the far right hand side labeled “TWT” to the tweeter. Be careful to observe the correct polarity when connecting the tweeter to its lead wires as these are smaller gauge and require care and patience to connect correctly.
