4. If you cannot place the tweeter less than 2 from the midrange then place the tweeter more than 7 fromthe midrange Placingthe tweeter 2 7 fromthe midrange can cause destructive interference frequency response prob lems which will affect the speaker s ability to reproduce the frequency range around the crossover frequency of the Punch Splits system W henever possible place the tweeter directly above or below the midrange as this maximizes the imaging point source capability of the Punch Splits speakers Figure 2 e e e E LX Figure 2 A Figure 2 B Sound radiated froma pointsource hasthe mostoptimum stereo imaging because the separation ofthe acoustical centers between the midrange and tweeter for each channel is atthe optimum Figure 2 A describes a horizontal speaker alignment In a closed environment such as an automobile horizontal speaker alignment can cause severe ampli tude and phase differences which will degrade not only the imaging but also the frequency response This is due to the path length differences between the midrange and tweeter Figure 2 B displays a vertical alignment between the midrange and tweeter With a vertical alignment the path length differences between the midrange and tweeter are reduced to a minimum The result is a negligible difference in path lengths between the midrange and tweeter regard less
