it is a built in thing in the crossover than cuts the tweeter level down if needed, so when its all installed and playing and you feel that maybe the tweeters are a bit bright and it sounds a bit bright you could adjust the level of the tweeter, tbh though unless you are very critical or actually notice things when replaying cd's (such as every detail in the track) then just keep them at 0
