1. 서론
The Audiotek CX4 is a high-performance 2-way passive crossover network designed for car audio systems. Its primary function is to separate the audio signal into distinct frequency ranges, directing high frequencies to tweeters and low frequencies to woofers. This ensures that each speaker driver receives only the frequencies it is designed to reproduce, resulting in clearer sound reproduction and improved overall audio quality in your vehicle. This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of your Audiotek CX4 crossover networks.

5. 설정 및 설치
The Audiotek CX4 crossover networks are designed for straightforward integration into your car audio system. Follow these general steps for installation.
5.1. 장착 위치
Choose a dry, secure location within your vehicle that is protected from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and moisture. The compact size of the CX4 allows for flexible placement. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the unit.
5.2. 배선 연결
The CX4 features clearly labeled terminals for input, woofer output, and tweeter output. Refer to the diagram below for proper wiring.

- Input (Eingang): Connect the audio signal from your amplifier's full-range output to the "INPUT" terminals on the crossover. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).
- Woofer Output (Tiefton): Connect your woofer speaker to the "WOOFER" terminals. Maintain correct polarity.
- Tweeter Output (Hochton): Connect your tweeter speaker to the "TWEETER" terminals. Maintain correct polarity.
5.3. 트위터 레벨 조정
The CX4 allows you to adjust the tweeter output level to match your system and listening preferences. There are three selectable settings:
- 0dB: Standard tweeter output.
- -3dB: Slightly reduced tweeter output.
- -6dB: Further reduced tweeter output.
Select the desired setting by moving the jumper or switch located near the tweeter terminals. Experiment with these settings to achieve the best balance between your woofers and tweeters.

After all connections are made, double-check all wiring for correct polarity and secure connections before reconnecting the vehicle's battery.
6. 운영
The Audiotek CX4 is a passive crossover, meaning it does not require external power to operate. Once correctly installed and wired, it will automatically filter the audio signal from your amplifier, sending the appropriate frequencies to your connected woofers and tweeters.
The crossover point of 3.5 kHz ensures that frequencies below this point are directed to the woofer, and frequencies above are directed to the tweeter. This optimized distribution of sound frequencies enhances the clarity and definition of your car audio system.
7. 유지관리
The Audiotek CX4 crossover networks require minimal maintenance.
- 기기를 깨끗하게 유지하고 먼지와 이물질이 쌓이지 않도록 하십시오. 청소할 때는 부드럽고 마른 천을 사용하십시오.
- 모든 배선 연결부를 주기적으로 점검하여 안전하게 유지되고 부식되지 않았는지 확인하세요.
- Avoid exposing the unit to liquids or extreme temperatures.
8. 문제 해결
If you experience issues with your Audiotek CX4 crossover networks, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
| 문제 | 가능한 원인 | 해결책 |
|---|---|---|
| 스피커에서 소리가 나지 않음 | Incorrect wiring; loose connections; amplifier issue; speaker malfunction. | Check all wiring connections for correct polarity and tightness. Verify amplifier and speakers are functioning correctly. |
| 왜곡되거나 불분명한 소리 | Incorrect tweeter level setting; damaged speaker; amplifier clipping; incorrect wiring. | Adjust tweeter level (0dB, -3dB, -6dB). Inspect speakers for damage. Ensure amplifier gain is set correctly. Re-check wiring. |
| 스피커 1개가 작동하지 않음 | Loose connection to that speaker; faulty speaker; faulty crossover channel. | Check connections to the non-working speaker. Test the speaker with a known good source. If problem persists, the crossover or speaker may be faulty. |
If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, please contact Audiotek customer support or a qualified car audio technician.
