INSTALLING YOUR XR570-CXi
COAXIALS IN FACTORY LOCATIONS:
Run the supplied speaker wires to the desired
mounting location. If you are running wires into a
door, use existing factory wiring boots whenever
possible. If you are drilling new holes, file their
edges and install rubber grommets into each hole.
Then, cover the wires with a protective PVC sleeve
and run them through the door jamb. Make sure
that the wires will clear door hinges and other
structures in the door. If you are unsure about any
part of this process, please contact your JL AUDIO
dealer for installation help.
Your new speakers have been designed to install,
without modifications, into most vehicles that accept
a 5 x 7-inch or 6 x 8-inch speaker. Most factory
5 x 7-inch speakers use four mounting screws
which will line up with the mounting holes on your
XR570-CXi speakers. Others use a 2-hole
mounting system which is accommodated by a
separate set of mounting tabs on the frames of
your XR570-CXi speakers.
Connect the speaker wires to both sets of
terminals on each speaker, observing correct
polarity and making sure that the tweeter and
woofer wires correspond to the correct terminals
on both the speaker and crossover.
It is absolutely vital that the speaker frame fits
into the mounting hole cleanly. This must be
checked prior to tightening the screws. Do not
force the frame into a hole that is too small! Do
not tighten the speaker onto an uneven surface! This
will damage your speakers. The speaker should also
fit so that no air leaks around the mounting flange.
Air leaks will cause a severe degradation in sound
quality. Seal any air leaks with silicone, rope caulk or
similar sealant material.Use the supplied mounting
clips unless the factory holes already feature
threaded inserts.
Hand-tighten the screws evenly to avoid
bending the speaker frame! Install as shown in
the diagram below.
