2.3 Cableado e conexión

The BRV-S65C component speakers are designed to run in a full active configuration, meaning they do not utilize a passive crossover. This design requires direct connection to a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) amplifier, such as the Alpine PXE-C80-88 Optim8 amplifier, for proper frequency division and tuning.

  • Connect the woofers and tweeters directly to the appropriate channels of your DSP ampmáis vivo.
  • Asegúrese de que a polaridade sexa correcta (+ a + e - a -) para todas as conexións dos altofalantes.
  • Refer to your DSP amplifier's manual for specific wiring diagrams and channel assignments.

2.4 Montaxe

Mount the woofers and tweeters in suitable locations within your vehicle, typically in factory speaker locations or custom-fabricated mounts. Ensure adequate clearance behind the speakers and secure them firmly to prevent vibrations and rattles.

  • Use the provided mounting hardware.
  • Avoid mounting speakers where they will be exposed to excessive moisture or direct sunlight.

3. Instrucións de funcionamento

Once installed and connected to a compatible DSP amplifier, your Alpine BRV-S65C speakers are ready for operation. Optimal performance is achieved through proper tuning of the DSP ampmáis vivo.
