Product Usage Instructions

Installation

  1. Choose a suitable location in your vehicle to install the speakers.
  2. Remove any existing speakers or grilles from the installation location.
  3. Connect the speaker wires to the corresponding terminals on the speakers. Ensure proper polarity (+/-) for each wire.
  4. Mount the speakers securely using the provided mounting hardware.
  5. Test the speakers to ensure they are functioning properly before finalizing the installation.

Speaker Positioning
For optimal sound quality, place the speakers in a location that provides balanced coverage and minimizes reflections. Consider the following tips:

  • Position the speakers at ear level for the best listening experience.
  • Ensure that the speakers are securely mounted to reduce vibrations and rattling.
  • Avoid placing the speakers too close to corners or walls, as this can cause excessive bass response.
  • Experiment with speaker placement to find the position that produces the desired soundstage and imaging.

Features

  • Composite polypropylene cone woofer
    Optimally designed polypropylene diaphragm gives deep bass while suppressed peaks and dips in the mid and high frequency smooth integration with the tweeter.

  • Foam rubber surround
    The woofer surround material is made of foam rubber, manufactured with an air- filled matrix structure that is light-weight and durable, providing optimal damping characteristics for responsive bass notes.

  • Silk soft-dome tweeter
    Based on technology developed for our premium speaker designs, the soft-dome tweeter boasts a flat frequency response and wider dispersion. In addition, its silk diaphragm contributes to natural and smooth sound with good internal loss.

  • Progressive height rate spider
    The acoustically optimized spider allows for higher power handling and airflow, with a profile designed for more rapid and precise cushioning of the speaker cone.

  • Dynamic Air Diffuser
    The integrated Dynamic Air Diffuser ensures efficient air circulation for smooth cone travel and cooling of the voice coil.

  • Easy installation
    The smaller tweeter chassis and shallow woofer basket decrease physical interference with factory grilles, enabling easy installation in a wider variety of vehicles.

  • Environment in mind
    Our products are not only designed to be stylish but also with the environment in mind. For the individual packaging of the XS-680GS, 98% of the cushions are made of paper materials, and compared to the prior model, printed information has been carefully considered for simplicity and length to reduce printer ink usage by approximately 90%, reflecting Sony’s commitment to reducing environmental impact.
