Thank You

Congratulations on purchasing a high-quality AUDIO SYSTEM product incl. GERMAN SOUND.
Important: Completely read this operating instruction before installation and use of the device.
Attention: Pay attention to advise and instructions of the car manufacturer. Check the polarity when connecting the speakers.
Important: You will need your purchase receipt as proof of purchase for all warranty repairs and for insurance purposes. Keep your receipt, owner´s manual and packing materials in a safe location for possible future use.
Attention: Use of sound components can impair your ability to hear necessary traffic sounds and may constitute a hazard while driving your automobile. AUDIO SYSTEM GERMANY accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury or property damage as a result of use or misuse of our products. We recommend installing the equipment by an authorized service center or dealer. A professional fitting and connection are the requirement for further warranty and perfect sound.

Amplifier Recommendation

Best performance you get with Audio System amplifiers, for example, full active: X-80.4D, X-80.4 DSP-BT, R-110.4, R-110.4 DSP-BT, X-100.4 MD and X-170.4 or passive: X-150.2D, R-250.2. and HX-175.2 or HX-265.2. Installation dimensions and TSP data of all speakers can be found at our website: www .AUDIO-SYSTEM.de

Crossover FW HX EVO

The speaker system is adaptable to specific car acoustics and to everybody’s personal music sound taste. The frequency response can be optimized according to the position and geometric situation of the speaker by simple changes of the leading wire connections (JUMPER). All of this can be reached by re- plugging the jumpers (648 possibilities). Unnecessary changes by the JUMPER(s) decrease the sound behavior of the whole speaker system. The FWHX EVO is specially developed for speakers made by Audio system EVO3 sets. Depending on the installation position of the tweeter, you must adapt the level, for example: if the woofer is installed in the feet area while the tweeter is installed on the dashboard. Without level decrease, the tweeter could be too loud. The crossover is adjustable exactly to your personal idea for tweeter volume or music trend.

Default Setting Crossover FW HX EVO

IMPORTANT: The crossover is supplied with a default setting. If some speakers do not work or work too much softly as bad sounding, the crossover must be adjusted again to the basic settings in order to clarify if mistakes on the crossover setting is the real defect reason or not. Thus, you can avoid that you or the dealer must check the speaker unnecessarily.

HIGH-FREQUENCY LEVEL

Depending on the installation position of the tweeter, you must adapt the level, example: if the woofer is installed in the feet area while the tweeter is installed on the dashboard. Without level decrease, the tweeter could be too loud. The crossover is adjustable exactly to your personal idea for tweeter volume or music trend.

4-7 kHz Frequency Tuning

(SECTION B)

If tweeters are installed by “indirect radiation” (big angle default), they could sound too loud in lower high frequencies. The crossover can adjust the amplitude on that band by reduction of the capacitor from the tweeter circuit. AUDIO-SYSTEM-HX-100-PHASE-EVO3-2-Way-Kit-fig-3

Full High-Frequency Tuning

If tweeters are installed by “direct radiation” (low angled fault) they will sound too loud on the super-high frequencies range. By increasing the resistance R the amplitude will be reduced in the super high-frequency field.
Remark: The bigger the value of R, the smaller the amplitude. The level can be adapted across the whole high-frequency area by increasing (decreasing) C and simultaneous decreasing (increasing) R. The common front-stage audio systems have sounding problems caused by different distances between driver and tweeters, combined with different angle defaults of the left and right tweeter. The specialist knows how to adapt the left, respectively the right tweeter itself, according to sections A and B.AUDIO-SYSTEM-HX-100-PHASE-

Woofer Cut Slope

(SECTION C)

It is useful, depending on the installation position and speaker size, to limit the higher frequencies up to 6 dB or 12 dB. Especially smaller speakers or those installed more above should be limited. In contrast, a 165 mm speaker can also be affected to get a level increase with the 12 dB circuit around his cutting frequency. The result can be a better efficiency under the cutting frequency. The best is to listen or measure it.AUDIO-SYSTEM-HX-100-PHASE-

Impedance Linearization

(SECTION D)

All speakers and voice coils produce higher impedance according to higher frequencies, created by an imaginary resistance (reactance). The adjusted crossover circuit works properly when the increase through a connected impedance-linearization (R-C part) is being reduced. With the jumper, you can disable or enable the R-C part. To know if the proposed adjusting is the best sound, it is important to listen or to measure.AUDIO-SYSTEM-HX-100-PHASE-

Mechanical Installation Tip

Warning: First disconnect negative pole of your car battery. Check- polarity, changing polarity may cause serious damage to your car electric. Best speaker positions are the original build-in positions. Easy installation and original look are the reasons. Please note that the speakers are installed flat and stable. The quality of the installation decides the sound very much, therefore, attention should be paid to insulation and care during installation. Please note that the speakers are protected from heat, sunlight, mechanical influences, moisture, and wetness by accessories from the AUDIO SYSTEM.
Attention: Install all cables as straight as possible without squashing or laying them over sharp edges. Otherwise, this can cause a short circuit or damage to your whole installation. Attention: Be careful removing original plastic parts of your car. The fitting parts could be damaged and must be replaced. Important: The right polarity of all speakers is extremely important for the sound of your car audio system. We recommend changing the polarity of the tweeter to find out the best possible sound. The best is to listen and/or to measure it.
