We strongly recommend that you have your new Premium series speakers installed by your authorized
MB Quart dealer. The installation professionals employed by your dealer have the necessary tools and
experience to disassemble your vehicle, install your new speakers and reassemble everything properly.
If you prefer to perform your own installation, it is very important that you read the entire manual first.
GETTING STARTED:
- Turn off the audio system.
- Check clearance on both sides of mounting surface to ensure that there are no obstructions
(windows, tracks, wiring etc).
CROSSOVER NETWORK INSTALLATION:
- Locate a dry location for mounting of your Premium Crossover Networks. DO NOT MOUNT IN DOORS!
- Remove the cover of the crossover by squeezing either side. This exposes the mounting holes for securing
the crossover to a flat surface. Prior to pre-drilling pilot holes, ensure that you will not be drilling into wiring,
gas tanks, fuel lines etc.
- Once the crossover is mounted, snap the protective cover back in place.

INPUT
IN+: Connect positive speaker wire from radio or amplifier.
IN-: Connect negative speaker wire from radio or amplifier.
MID BASS
WF+: Provides positive output to midrange speaker.
WF-: Provides negative output to midrange speaker.
VARI-TWEETER
TW+: Provides positive output to tweeter.
-6dB: Provides negative output to tweeter at -6dB.
-3dB: Provides negative output to tweeter at -3dB.
0dB: Provides negative output to tweeter with no manipulation.
The negative connection under the VARI-TWEETER section allows for varied degrees of tweeter attenuation.
Only connect to one negative terminal with the understanding that 0dB is no manipulation and the loudest
selection for tweeter output, -6dB is the quietist selection for tweeter output and -3dB is in the middle.

Speaker, Tweeter and Crossover Placement Options:
Factory sound systems vary greatly. Some systems have coaxials (tweeter fixed in the center of the midrange) in the
door, while others have factory component (tweeter is separate from midrange) systems. If your system has the factory
component offering then you will want to locate your factory tweeter mounting location and compare it to the diagram
below. Some vehicles already have the tweeter in the ideal location, while others often position the tweeter in the top
corner of the door pane which is less than ideal. A good rule of thumb is to try and mount the tweeter within 8 inches
of the midrange woofer for optimal imaging and tonal balance. When selecting an optimal mounting location, ensure
that you are clear of any obstructions within the door. Cutting or drilling into moving parts or electrical accessory wires
can be very dangerous and costly.
Woofers should typically be installed in the factory locations. Simply ensure that the new woofer will not obstruct the
window or other moving parts in the door.
The Crossover should NEVER be mounted in the shell of the door. This can damage the crossover through vibration
and moisture which is NOT covered under warranty. The Crossover can be mounted in a kick panel, under a seat or in
the trunk as long as the area is not located near any moving parts in the vehicle which could cut or pull the wires
resulting in a short circuit.
All wiring to and from the crossover should avoid all moving parts in the vehicle which could potentially damage the
wiring. Take great care when running wires through the door frame and into the door as wires can easily be cut. A
rubber grommet should be used on both holes and wire loom should be wrapped around the exposed wires as shown
in the diagram below.
