3.2 Электраправодка

Connect the tweeters to your amplifier or crossover network. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -) for optimal sound reproduction. The HT120 has an 8-Ohm impedance, which is compatible with most audio systems.

3.3 Crossover Recommendation

For best performance and to protect the tweeters, it is recommended to use a crossover that cuts frequencies below 1500Hz to 3000Hz at a -12dB per octave slope. This prevents lower frequencies from reaching the tweeter, which could cause damage or distortion.

4. Operating Your Tweeters

Once properly installed and connected, your Rockville HT120 tweeters will enhance the high-frequency response of your audio system. Ensure your amplifier's gain settings are appropriate to avoid overdriving the tweeters, which can lead to distortion and potential damage.

  • Пераканайцеся, што крыніца гуку актыўная і пасылае сігнал.
• Скажоны гук:
  • Зменшце ўзровень гучнасці на вашым amplifier or head unit. Overdriving the tweeters can cause distortion.
  • Check your crossover settings. Incorrect crossover points can send frequencies to the tweeter that it cannot reproduce cleanly.
  • Inspect the tweeter diaphragm for any visible damage.
• Перарывісты гук:
  • Check for loose wiring connections at both the tweeter and the amplifier/crossover.
  • Ensure the speaker wire is not frayed or shorting out.
