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.

FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONDIMENSIONSELECTING A LOCATION

If your vehicle has existing factory locations, the easiest method would be to replace them with the exact same size speaker. ll,e cases 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 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”. The more “damped” your car is the better it will ultimately sound!

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.

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 1.85″ (47mm) 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.

FAQs

What does a Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speaker do?

In professional audio, coaxial loudspeakers allow sound from two drivers to emanate from a single source. In comparison to loudspeaker enclosures featuring physically isolated drivers, this feature enables a larger field of listening to a synchronised summation of speaker drivers.

Do I need tweeters with Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speakers?

The upper frequencies are crisper and sound better with coaxial speakers since they use at least one additional speaker (often a tweeter) to make up the difference.

Are Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speakers full-range?

Due to their ability to reproduce a wider range of audio frequencies from a single speaker, coaxial speakers are frequently referred to as “full-range” speakers. The drivers in these speakers are identical to those in component speakers, but they have been merged to save space and money.

What are Cerwin-Vega H7683 3-way coaxial speakers?

The mid-range, woofer, and tweeter drivers, collectively known as the 3-way speaker, produce sound. Each of these has a unique efficiency throughout a large spectrum of sound frequencies.

Do Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speakers sound good?

In conclusion, coaxial speakers are considerably superior to the single-cone speakers featured on OEM vehicles in terms of sound quality and range coverage. Coaxial speakers can be 3-way as well, however they are less popular than 2-way speakers.

Do Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speakers need a crossover?

You generally don’t need a second crossover if your automobile audio system uses coaxial speakers. The frequencies that reach each driver are already filtered by passive crossovers that are already present in full-range speakers. The built-in speaker crossovers should be more than plenty, even if you add an amplifier to the mix.

Can you amp Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speakers?

Four coaxial speakers can be powered by a four-channel amp, while a subwoofer can be powered by a separate mono amp. Each amp needs to be matched with the system it will power. Some amplifiers are perfect for powering woofers or tweeters because they come with built-in low-pass or high-pass filters.

Do Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speakers have good bass?

Some of the greatest bass vehicle speakers produce powerful volume output and snappy bass response. Coaxial car speakers. With a maximum output of 700 watts and a nominal power of 120 watts, these car speakers can amp up the sound in your vehicle.

What is the difference between coaxial and 3 way speakers?

A coaxial speaker, to put it simply, combines a woofer and a tweeter into one component. There is an additional midrange driver in the three-way variant. On a pole that extends to the centre, the tweeter and midrange speaker are mounted. They receive a tiny device with the complete spectrum of sound in this way.

Do Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speakers go in the front or back?

The crossover, mid-bass driver, and tweeter are all mounted in one compact speaker called a coaxial speaker. They are particularly well-liked since they require less space and are considerably simpler to install than component sets. The vehicle’s back is often where coaxial speakers are located.

What is the difference between dual cone and coaxial speakers?

However, dual cone speakers do typically cost less, so keep that in mind. In reality, coaxial speakers are made up of many speakers operating together. One speaker is wrapped around another, which is referred to as coaxial.

Can you use a DSP on Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speakers?

The majority of coaxial speakers include a passive crossover. You may time-align the entire speaker, select a high pass crossover point, and adjust the EQ with your dsp. Individual crossover settings and temporal alignment for the woofer and tweeter are not possible.

Do Cerwin-Vega H7683 coaxial speakers require an amplifier?

Coaxial speakers actually don’t need an amplifier. You’ll get an even better sound, less distortion, and perhaps more enjoyment (and volume) from them if you use one, though.
