Precautions

Special precautions regarding

the Beryllium dome tweeter

In its solid form, Berylli m is harm-

less. However, d e to its nat re,

certain special preca tions sho ld

be observed to avoid expos re to

nnecessary risk.

• Under no circ mstances the

Berylli m dome sho ld be s bjected

to any form of abrasive action. To

ens re no accidental damage to the

tweeter dome it is advised to caref lly

replace the protection cover.

• In the nlikely case of damage to

the dome, of any form, the s pplied

piece of adhesive tape sho ld be

immediately sed to seal the whole

front s rface of the tweeter. The

protective cover sho ld then be

replaced and also taped sec rely

in place. Yo sho ld then inform the

dealer from whom yo p rchased

the prod ct so that the tweeter can

be removed by a professional and

ret rned to the prod ct distrib tor

for replacement.

• If the dome is broken in any way

giving rise to loose particles of

Berylli m, they sho ld be caref lly

collected with the se of a s pplied

adhesive tape and sealed in a zip-

top bag to be ret rned with the

tweeter.

Warning

Contin ed listening at high vol me

levels above 110dB, can damage

yo r hearing d rably. Listening

above 130dB can damage yo r

hearing permently.

Running-in period

The drivers sed in the Uopia

Be Line are made p of complex

mechanical elements and req ires

an adaptation period before they

deliver their f ll potential. They m st

get adapted to the temperat re

and h midity conditions of their

environment. This r nning-in period

depends on the enco ntered con-

ditions and can last several weeks.

In order to shorten this period,

we advise yo to let yo r speaker

operate for abo t twenty ho rs at

medi m level, playing standard

m sic programs, b t with a large

amo nt of bass. Once the com-

ponents of the speaker are com-

pletely stabilized, it is possible to

enjoy the real performances of yo r

speakers.

Tweeters installation

Location

TBe tweeter has been designed for

fl sh mo nting (recommended)

or s rface mo nting installation,

sing the two fixing kits provided.

Installation’s choice position is

extremely important. This is a major

factor for high freq ency SPL, stability

of the aco stics, stereophonic

imaging, and overall staging. The

standard recommendation for an

ideal stereo imaging, is to ens re

the “left” and “right” tweeters are

installed in the same positions.

Also they are approximately at

eq al distance to the driver (vice-

versa for the passenger). Vario s

positions advised sho ld be checked

and comparatives made, for an

ideal positioning. Tweeter sho ld

always be positioned ahead of the

normal listening position. The main

preferences are the o ter positions

of the dashboard (fig. 1, A),

on the windscreeen pillars (fig. 1, B)

(only req ires a small amo nt of

install work). The location close to

the door mirror (fig. 1, C) is also

regarded as a good position. Lastly

a position high in the door (fig. 1, D)

is also acceptable even if it is not

considered as the best to optimize

staging. It is imperative to check

before any installation is attempted,

that eno gh space is available

(especially for fl sh-mo nting

appli-cations). Crossblock (incl ded

in n°5, 6 and 7 kits) contains all

necessary f nctionalities to optimize

the tweeter setting, according to its

location and vehicle aco stic.

Surface mounting

S rface mo nting fixing kit offers

vario s possibilities, thanks to its

wave g ide which allows different

alignments. Fix the assembly sing the

screw provided on vehicle trim. Don’t

forget the washer to avoid r bber

joint’s slide shearing (fig. 2, 3).

Thread the cable from the tweeter,

thro gh the back. Then fix tweeter

sing the fo r stainless steel screws.

Flush mounting (highly recom-

mended)

Best res lts will be obtained by a

tweeter fl sh mo nting. C t trim

sing tweeter as a mo ld. P sh in the

s pport and ens re it remains flat on

the s rface. Ens re it is locked in

place with the screws s pplied. Lock

the screw. Thread the cable from the

tweeter, thro gh the back, then lock

in place the tweeter sing the fo r

screws provided (fig. 4, 5).

Woofers / midranges mounting

Woofer location

Woofers positioned ideally high

in the doors (fig. 1, A), prod ce

optimal midrange freq encies.

Woofers positioned mid in the

doors are also a sol tion to

obtain good linearity (fig. 1, B).

If the woofer-mids are positioned

low in the doors (fig. 1, C),the

loss of midrange will be im-portant.

The woofer-mids from the Utopia

Be range can also be placed low in

the “kick-panels” (fig. 2, D) of the

vehicle. This is to f rther optimize the

stereophonic imaging and staging.

This mo nting only s its to Utopia

Be 5“. Crossblock will allow to

obtain a fine setting according to

the location.

Midranges location

3“ midrange (n°7 Utopia Be kit) is

made to be install near tweeter, on

dashboard (fig. 2, E), in order to

have the better staging. 0.5l vol me

aims at going down to 180Hz.

Mounting advises

Utopia Be woofers and woofer-

midranges have been designed for

a m ltit de of vehicles installations.

It is worth nderstanding the basic

req irements for installing s ch

prod cts. These woofers and woofer-

midranges are abble to deliver

enormo s amo nts of energy, d ring

their positive / negative movement.

Therefore it is imperative that they

be fixed rigid to the desired location

(fig. 3, A). Resin might be sed

(fig. 3, B). The fixing location sho ld

also be strengthened when necessary.

Panels sho ld be strengthened to

eliminate any nwanted vibrations

and screwed on a metallic part

of the vehicle (fig. 3, C). S ch vi-

brations will drastically red ce the

overall performance. These drive

nits sho ld be fixed and sealed

to the baffle or location panel. The

se of the foam gasket is advisable

for correct air sealing. For added

performance, and to better red ce

s ch nwanted vibrations and other

aco stical losses, we recommend

the se of “plain chant”. Easily

positioned behind the woofer, on

the metal-work of the vehicle, Plain

Chant soaks- p vibrations as well

as aco stic reflections. Always en-

s re before that eno gh space is

available for the magnet assembly,

that it doesn’t interfere with safety

mechanisms or general working

parts. In the case of not sing the

grilles s pplied, it is important to

ens re the speakers will fit correctly.

Ens re there is eno gh depth

behind the speaker has already

been explained,b t eno gh tho ght

m st also be given for the forward

movement of the cone and s rro nd

assembly.
