Secure the speaker with at least two opposing tabs. FIG. 3 GRAY AREA BREAKS OFF EX System Tweeters One important advantage of component systems is their ability, when properly installed, to improve the soundstage created by the music in your car. The soundstage is the musical "picture" made up of the instruments and vocalists. The difference in the soundstage will be dramatic depending on where you mount your tweeters. We recommend a simple experiment that will help you decide the best spot for your tweeters in your car. Complete the installation of your entire system except for the EX2500 tweeters. Connect the wires provided with your tweeters to the tweeter terminals on your EX crossovers.
