INSTALLING YOUR VR690-CXi COAXIALS
IN TOP-MOUNT APPLICATIONS:
Run speaker wire to the desired mounting
location. If you are running wires into a door, use
existing factory wiring boots whenever possible. If
you are drilling new holes, file their edges and install
rubber grommets into each hole. Then, cover the
wires with a protective PVC sleeve and run them
through the door jamb. Make sure that the wires
will clear door hinges and other structures in the
door. If you are unsure about any part of this
process, please contact your JL AUDIO dealer for
installation help.
Double check the clearance for both speakers
before proceeding.
If you are cutting mounting holes into a custom
location, use the supplied template on the top of
the product packaging to mark the desired
mounting location. Mark the center and the outline
of the mounting hole as well as the mounting screw
positions. Before drilling or cutting, use a utility knife
to cut any fabric, vinyl or leather from hole
locations. These materials can easily be snagged by
a drill or a saw, causing damage to the panel and
possible bodily injury.
Drill four 1/8” (3 mm) holes for the speaker’s
mounting screws at the positions you have marked.
Also drill a pilot hole in the center of the speaker
mounting hole at this time. Then, using a saber saw,
or nibbler make the oval cut-out for the speaker.
File any rough edges.
Insert the mounting clips with the flat side
towards the speaker as shown in the diagram.
It is absolutely vital that the speaker frame fits
into the mounting hole cleanly. This must be
checked prior to tightening the screws. Do not
force the frame into a hole that is too small! Do
not tighten the speaker onto an uneven surface! This
will damage your speakers. The speaker should also
fit so that no air leaks around the mounting flange.
Air leaks will cause a severe degradation in sound
quality. Seal any air leaks with silicone, rope caulk or
similar sealant material.
Connect the speaker wires, observing
correct polarity, and install the speaker and grille
tray as shown.
Hand-tighten the screws evenly to avoid
bending the speaker frame!
Break off small pieces of the supplied butyl
adhesive putty and place them on the inside of each
grille tray. This adhesive will hold the grille in place
firmly and prevent rattling. Then insert the metal
grille into the grille tray, squeezing gently around its
edge until it seats firmly into the tray.

GETTING STARTED:
• Turn off the audio system. It is also advisable to

vehicle’s battery whenever performing
installation work.
• Before cutting, drilling or inserting any screw,
check clearances on both sides of the planned
mounting surface. Also check for any potential
obstacles, such as window tracks and motors,
trunk springs, wiring harnesses, etc. Check both
sides of the car, many cars are not symmetrical!
• Always wear protective eyewear.
INSTALLING YOUR VR690-CXi COAXIALS
IN BOTTOM-MOUNT APPLICATIONS:
If you will be using the factory speaker wires, it
may be necessary to change the terminations. This
may be accomplished by using an adaptor plug or
simply by cutting the factory connector off and
using the supplied crimp connectors to terminate
the speaker wires.The large connector is for the
positive terminal and the small connector is for the
negative terminal of each VR690-CXi. You may also
choose to run new speaker wires.Whichever
method you choose, observe correct polarity in
your connections. If you are unsure about any of
these issues, contact your JL AUDIO dealer for
installation assistance.
Your new speakers have been designed
to install, without modifications, into most vehicles
that accept a 6 x 9 inch speaker. Most factory 6 x 9
inch speakers use four mounting screws or bolts
which will line up with the mounting holes on your
VR690-CXi speakers.
The speaker should fit so that no air leaks
around the mounting flange. Air leaks will
cause a severe degradation in sound quality.
Seal any air leaks with silicone, rope caulk or similar
sealant material.
Install as shown in the diagram here, using the
supplied bottom-mount spacer rings and the long
#8 bolts, nuts and washers. Hand-tighten the bolts
evenly to avoid bending the speaker frame!
