DLS PERFORMANCE SPEAKERS
OWNERS MANUAL
Welcome
Thank you for buying a DLS speaker. This model is a part of
DLS Performance speaker line.
Install the speakers yourself if you feel confident with our in-
structions and if you have the proper tools. A poor installation
job can destroy the final result even from these speakers, so if
you feel unsure, turn over the installation job to someone better
suited to it.
Installation
Mount the speakers in the door or in the dashboard of your
car. Normally they will fit in the facory pre-made mounting ho-
les. If you want an improved sound reinforce with a baffle of
MDF-board or similar. An installation high up on the door side
is to be prefered.
In many vehicles there are factory made places for tweeters
that you can use for installation. If this is impossible, try to In-
stall the tweeter close to the bass/mid driver. The tweeter can
also be installed on the dash-board, or recessed in the door
with the accessories coming with the tweeters.
It is important to fasten the speakers properly in order to avoid
bad sound or rattling.
Connect the speakers and crossovers as in this drawing:

Installation of tweeter RC20
RC20 can be mounted on the dashboard with the plain cup (1),
the angled cup (2), or recessed in a doorside.
Surface mounting:
Plain mounting: Use only the plain mounting cup (1) (it´s normally
mounted at delivery). Attach to surface with the two screws or double
adhesive tape.
Angled mounting: Remove the plain mounting cup by bending with a
small screw driver in the gap (A). Attach the tweeter driver to the ang-
led cup (2) as shown on picture 3. Pull the cable through the center
hole. Now the tweeter can be mounted in two different angles. Attach
to the surface with the two screws or double adhesive tape.
Recessed mounting:
Drill a hole in the door side with a diameter of 48 mm /1,89”. The
installation becomes easier if the door side is removed from the door.
Put the two metal wings through the two tracks in the center of the
cup, just as the picture shows, and attach them with the M4 screw and
nut through the center hole. Put the tweeter driver into the cup with
the cable going out through the bottom hole. Attach the tweeter driver
to the plain cup using the mounting ring (C) attached between the cup
and the tweeter. The metal wings (B) should be on the back side of the
door panel, holding the cup in place.
