Mawrick 0 Posted May 31, 2014 If I knew this set came with a crossover cable instead of a "crossover box" I'd most likely buy something else - but anyway. Can anyone give an explanation on how such system is supposed to be installed?. Are one supposed to join the + from bass element and + from tweeter and then going onto the crossover cable and then to one channel from the player/amplifier? (and the same for "-") ?. I'v added a picture showing similar speakers - with the crossover cable pictured as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawrick 0 Posted May 31, 2014 I'v made a quick drawing that shows 2 alternative I'd picture - but if alternative "bass2" is correct I_'m wondering why the plugs on the wires connects straight into the connector on the tweeter - also the crossover cable is marked "tweeter".

J.C 10 Posted May 31, 2014 It could be that the bass drivers have a natural "roll off" of frequency and that the tweeter filter just compliments this, Didn't it come with an installation manual? have you looked at Focals website? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J.C 10 Posted May 31, 2014 It seems that the iss130 doesn't have a low pass filter (iss 165/200/570/690 do) Just wire them up as bass 1 is in your diagram I've got focals in mine, sounds very good, I flush mounted the tweeter in the triangle trim high in the doors Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
