Mounting the Woofer/Midrange
It is recommended that a qualified professional install all
McIntosh Automotive Products. McIntosh Woofer/
Midrange Drivers, Tweeters and Crossover Networks
should be used in conjunction with McIntosh Subwoofers
and McIntosh Automotive electronics to achieve the best
possible performance. McIntosh Subwoofers are designed
to operate in the bass frequency range below 120Hz and
need not be physically close to midrange and tweeter
speakers in order to maintain good imaging and system fre-
quency balance.
The crossovers are supplied with a removable cover that is
hinged at the rear and is secured to the base at the front
with two machine screws. When selecting a crossover
mounting location, make sure that there is adequate room
for the top to be raised and removed.

and unhinge the cover. Refer to figure 2.
2. Using the base
of the cross-
over as a tem-
plate, mark the
four locations
to drill holes in
the mounting
surface for the
crossover
mounting screws. Drill four holes with an appropriate
size drill bit. Refer to figure 3.
3.Secure the
crossover to
the mounting
surface with
the four #6 x 1
inch supplied
