08GTi should always be con-
nected in the same polarity as
the midrange however. It is pos-
sible, that due to the difference
in the distance the sound travels
from the midrange to your ears
compared to the distance from
the tweeters in a typical system,
and the short wavelengths of
sound at the crossover frequen-
cy, that a connection where the
tweeters are connected in
reverse polarity from the other
drivers in the system may actu-

Because there is no way to

installation, we recommend that
you try the connection both
ways, and leave it in the polarity
that gives the smoothest audible
transition between the midrange
and tweeter. The JBL standard
for polarity marking uses the
solid red wire as positive (+) and
the black striped wire as nega-
tive (–).
