The HTI speakers feature
unique swivel mounts for the
tweeters that enable you to
aim the very directional high
frequencies toward the
listening position, at ear-level
height. Before installing the
speaker grille, gently press on
the outer edge of the tweeter
mount to adjust the position of
the tweeter. The tweeter will
not swivel more than 15
degrees in any direction; do
not attempt to force it to move
further. You may also rotate
the tweeter to orient the JBL
logo as desired.
