4.4 Crossover Network Installation

The external crossover networks separate the audio signal into high and low frequencies for the tweeters and woofers, respectively. Mount the crossovers in a dry, accessible location, away from heat sources. Connect the amplifier output to the crossover's input, then connect the woofer and tweeter to their designated outputs on the crossover. The crossover features a 12dB per octave high-pass filter at 4,000Hz for the tweeter and a 12dB per octave low-pass filter at 4,000Hz for the woofer.

4.5 Pengkabelan

Ensure all wiring connections are secure and maintain correct polarity (+ to + and - to -) to prevent phase issues. The system is rated for 4 Ohms impedance and can handle up to RMS 125 watt (daya puncak 250 watt). Use speaker wire of appropriate gauge for your amplifier's power output and wire run length.
