4.2. Kablingstilkoblinger
The EL-E65C is a 2-way component system, requiring external crossovers to separate audio frequencies for the woofer and tweeter.
- Crossover Input: Connect the speaker output from your amplifier or head unit to the INPUT terminals of the passive crossover. Observe correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).
- Woofer Connection: Connect the WOOFER output terminals of the crossover to the corresponding terminals on the 6.5-inch woofer.
- Tweeter Connection: Connect the TWEETER output terminals of the crossover to the corresponding terminals on the tweeter.
- Sikre tilkoblinger: Sørg for at alle tilkoblinger er tette og isolerte for å forhindre kortslutninger og signaltap.
Refer to the specific wiring diagram provided with your product packaging for detailed connection points and polarity markings.
