To tell you the truth I didn't use the crossover bc I couldn't fit it either so I bout a small wire dampiner that keeps out the bass and cut a hole in my door and connected the wires to my door speaker wires

Hello, you should have no problem placing them in a pod, they are about no more than 2" x 1" wide. They sound incredible but to get the best results they should be amplified. Good luck!

it will depend on the room around the tweeter opening. I installed the crossover in the doors and installed the tweeter in the dash worked fine for me.

Whilst I can't give an exact depth without ripping half of my car's interior out, I can say that they flushly fit into any 6" or 6.5" pod. If you have existing speakers that are larger than 4" (highly likely you do), then these should fit straight in. They are a very well made speaker, compact and modern in their design. They should fit straight into most existing pods without modification (unless they are replacing a smaller stock product). Worse case scenario, a flush mount or angled spacer will solve any mounting problems neatly and with increased acoustic resonance to boot!

Hi! Well, I'm not home until 30th, but I can say that they are rather big, and I had to expand the hole in my speakers. But, they are sound very good. I put them in a pair of old JBL higher ends, and I must say that they are much better than the old tweeters.

Yes, if you know what you are doing. You should not use this speaker, though. This is a level of hardware that requires quite a bit of tuning, and can't be used as a simple replacement. You will need a crossover, and a good high power tweeter to pair this speaker with. This speaker (it's one speaker, not a pair) should only get a 80Hz to 5Khz signal with a 12 dB / octave slope on the high end, and the steepest drop off you can manage on the low end. It's difficult to find tweeters that can handle the same wattage as these. I like to use series wired pairs of infinity 2 ohm tweeters amplified separately (4 ohm load per channel).

I installed the tweeters on an older TJ, don't know whether these would replace the ones in a 2012 Wrangler.

From what I've found so far Lloyd is correct. They should fit in the doors with the adapters but I can't find info on the rest of the speakers in that vehicle. Before I start buying speakers I would physically confirm the sizes of the original speakers and the methods used to mount them. Some cars can be very tricky to work with when doing upgrades and I know nothing about that model. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.Update:I just found this size list on the Sonic Electronix website.

Joe - You might try going to the mfr's website to see if there's a compatibility chart. I'm thinking there was. The Kenwood unit I chose does not have separate tweeter outputs, so the harness I used didn't provide for them. Many times, the tweeters have their own crossover network attached directly to the tweeter, so connecting them to the standard radio output will still allow them to work. The crossover network will allow only the higher frequency signals to pass into the tweeter. If they do not have dedicated crossover networks, i.e. the network is otherwise provided within the player, then I would not advise connecting them to the standard output. The tweeters could then "see" all frequencies and there associated amplitudes and would likely fail. I hope this helps. Cheers! Steve

I wired them into my factory tweets. But honestly shop around. I used to have spl1's and loved them. These spl4's are garbage. No real clear high range. If you can find spl1's go for it. I've also had good luck with power acoustic tweets.

No they have a capacitor soldered on the positive terminal of the tweeter eliminating the need for a crossover like you would use for most component speakers. I must warn you if you plan on powering these to their rms wattage for a balanced system your midrange must be double what your putting to the tweeter. Example: 200 watt tweeter should have 400 watts of midrange. These tweeters are no joke they scream. If you have an entry level system these are not for you. If you plan on under powering the tweeters what's the point to buy them. Buy a tweeter that matches your midrange and sub.

The extra tweeters should be fed from a crossover from the front channel speakers as a "component" set. The wiring from the head unit wouldn't be affected by this, it'd wire up to the source or the amp as if it's a 4-speaker system.

These tweeters require a 1 13/16" mounting hole, with approximately an inch of space behind the panel. Simply because they are made by Infinity does not mean these can be readily swapped with factory-equipped Infinity systems. In fact, the factory-equipped Infinity speakers were awful in quality... I'm surprised Inifinty licensed its name for some of these OEM systems. At any rate, go by the speaker size of your sub to know what can be substituted, not brand name.

I did not use crossovers, as the focal's did not include their own. Instead I used the high pass filter on my amp and things have sounded great so far. The amp I am using is a Phoenix Gold V754.

This is like a component system where there is a midrange speaker and a tweeter but in a lazy/easy mode wrapper. Instead of having to install the tweeter in another location (which is usually a location you have to create) this has the tweeter mounted in the center of the mid range woofer. So, technically it's 4 speakers but you will only plan for having to install two. Usually these size speakers are mounted in doors, so 2 doors. So, if you need 4x 6.5" speakers you must buy 2 of these sets. Also, when it says 300W max and 100W RMS, that's for the woofer/tweeter combined, so you can treat them as one speaker. Splitting and sound crossover is handled by the speakers internal circuitry, no action is required on your part and setup is no more complicated than any other non-component system. Having the woofer/tweeter separate is a good thing.

First you have to find a suitable place to mount the crossover. I mounted them inside the door panels using 2 sided tape. Whether your using an amp or the head unit the speaker wires coming from the source(amp or head unit) get connected to the input + & - on the crossover. Then you run the wires from the + & - woofer terminals on the crossover to the + & - terminals on the driver(woofer). Finally you run the wires from/the + & - tweeter terminals on the croosover to the + & - wires on your tweeters. It's pretty straightforward once you find a good mounting location for the crossovers. If you are somewhat mechanically inclined & patient you should be alright.

I own a pair of these monitors. I'm very happy with them. They are passive not active, so they connect to a stereo amp just like any, regular speaker with the standard speaker wire of your choice. You can either wrap the wires around the posts and screw them tight, or you can use banana plugs (which I did). If you go with banana plugs, I would recommend getting ones that you DO NOT have to solder (which I did). It was a hassle and I don't think the connection is any better than a non-solder banana plug. As for your Focusrite Scarlett 212, I don't even know what that is??? So, I can't tell you if it will work. I can tell you that these are great speakers. I own a pair of these monitors.

No crossover is needed. Just wire together per instructions and you'll be fine. Fyi the small tweeter is loud.
