INSTALLING 

THE SPL 6 

MIDRANGE/  

WOOFER 

MOUNTING 

THE SPL 6X 

CROSSOVER 

The SPL 6 Midrange/Woofer can be mounted on 
the front or rear of a panel; gaskets are provided 
for both options.  The bolt hole configuration will fit 
a variety of American, European and Asian OEM 
patterns making it ideal for direct placement.  Best 
performance is achieved when the speaker is 
securely mounted to a door panel or rear deck.  
There should be no gaps between the speaker and 
the mounting surface, as this will impair its low 
frequency performance.  Be certain that both the 
panel and the speaker are securely mounted to 
prevent unwanted vibration. 

1) Mark the speaker location by using the 

template provided.   

2) Cut the opening and debur the edges with a 

file. 

3) Hold the speaker in place against the 

mounting surface and mark the mounting bolt 
holes. 

6) Drill the appropriate size hole for the screws 

provided. 

7) Place the SPL 6 into the trim ring, make the 

speaker wire connections, then install the 
speaker/trim ring assembly to the panel using 

The SPL 6X Passive Crossover can be mounted 
in virtually any location inside the vehicle.  Be 
sure not to mount the SPL 6X outside the vehicle, 
or in a location where it may be exposed to dirt or 
moisture (e.g., the engine compartment, inside a 
wheel housing, at the bottom of a leaky trunk, 
inside a door).
