Installation Instructions for Pipe Mounting Fixtures (Swivel) for ETXv3 Enclosed Speaker Systems
IMPORTANT: Swivel mounting fixtures should only be attached to horizontal pipes. ETXv3 enclosures should only be mounted directly above (12 O’clock position) or directly below (6 O’clock position) a horizontal pipe.
WARNING: Do not mount enclosures to a horizontal pipe in any position other than directly above or directly below.
Step 1: Remove Adhesive Backing and Install JL Audio Logo Badge (Sport
Grille Models Only)
Remove the adhesive backing from the JL Audio logo badge and install it on
the speaker grille if you have a Sport GrilleModel.
Step 2: Adjust Speaker Angle (Optional)
If you desire a different speaker angle, follow these steps:
- Remove the speaker mounting screws and washers.
- Adjust the speaker to the desired angle.
- Reinstall the speaker and tighten the screws in a criss-cross pattern.
Step 3: Prepare Aluminum Logo Cap
- For best adhesion, it is recommended to clean the inside of the aluminum cap with acetone (not included) before attaching it to the speaker enclosure.
- Apply a circular bead of silicone adhesive (included) to the inside of the aluminum logo cap, about 1/2-inch (13 mm) from the outer edge.
Step 4: Attach Aluminum Logo Cap
- Align the aluminum logo cap to the desired angle of rotation and press it onto the back of the enclosure.
- Apply masking tape (not included) to hold the cap in place until the silicone cures, which usually takes at least 24 hours.
Step 5: Mounting Fixtures
Follow these steps to mount the fixtures:
- Adjust the angle of the fixture until it is level.
- Mark the location for the speaker cable hole.
- Remove the fixture assembly and drill a 1/2 inch hole on the marked location.
Step 6: Routing Speaker Cable
In applications where the cable can be routed through the pipe, pass it
through one of the openings on the side of the fixture.
In applications where the cable cannot be routed through the pipe, pass it
through one of the openings on the side of the fixture.
Step 7: Connect Speaker Cables
Have a helper support the enclosure during this step.
Use the supplied butt connectors to connect the red (+) and black (-) speaker cable exiting the ETXv3 enclosure to the speaker cable exiting the pipe.
Note : The green and white wires will not be used in this application.
