As with any car stereo installation, all work performed should be checked thoroughly and carefully prior to the operation of the system. The placement of your Alphasonik speakers within your vehicle will greatly affect the overall performance of your audio system. Installation in every vehicle may not be possible without modifications. Factory provided locations are generally preferable due to ease of installation. In all cases speakers should be placed in a location free of obstruction by body panels, window cranks, storage compartments or anything that may hinder the speaker's performance. Avoid areas that do not provide a flat, sturdy mounting surface. Alphasonik speakers are designed to fit in almost any factory location. Again, if at all possible, it is recommended that you use a factory location. This applies mostly to later model vehicles. For those earlier models that do not have factory locations or are limited to front locations, it is recommended that you choose an area with sufficient air space. If you allow an insufficient amount of air space, the speaker may not reproduce low frequencies very well. It is recommended to mount the speakers in door panels, kick panels, rear decks, etc. Ideally, the speaker should be mounted where it will be in an enclosed airspace, allowing for extended bass response. NOTE: Alphasonik strongly recommends that you operate your system at low volumes prior to the completed installation of your Alphasonik speakers. This will allow a test of the speaker before securing it to its permanent location. CAUTION: Make sure that all speaker wiring is fully protected from cuts, tears and possible wear. Any short circuit developing as a result could severely damage the source unit or possibly the amplifier. Make sure all speaker wires easily reach the speaker terminal with no stress on the wires or connectors. MOUNTING: 1: Confirm the mounting location and depth requirements by inspecting the area where the speaker will be mounted. Most speakers will fit into stock locations on the vehicle, in this case only depth is important. 2: If the location you have picked does require cutting, you may use the supplied template to help you locate and mark the mounting location and cuts to be made. Be careful when cutting out the template. If you cut the template properly, the speaker will be a perfect fit. 3. If there is a cosmetic panel where the speaker will be mounted, we recommend using a utility knife to carefully cut a hole in it. Confirm the cut by placing the speaker in the hole. You may modify the hole as necessary. 4. If it will be necessary to cut steel, reinstall the cosmetic panel in place and use the hole you have previously cut as a template. This will help to insure proper cutting and a good fit. Mark the location for the speaker mounting screws, remove the panel and drill the screw holes. When finished you may replace the panel. 5. After cutting and drilling all holes, inspect the mounting areas for any metal ...
