DIRECT LED WIRING
Alternatively, you may hard wire individual leads
or a combination of leads to achieve up to seven
different LED color assortments. Refer to the table
below for the wire colors used to achieve specific
LED colors.
LED Color Wire Color(s) Connection
Red Red
Combine selected
wires from all
speakers and
connect to
negative ground
or to the negative
(–) battery post.
Green Green
Blue Blue
Yellow Red and Green
Pink Red and Blue
Aqua Green and Blue
White Red, Green and Blue
Combine all YELLOW (+12V) leads together (parallel)
and connect to a switched +12V supply. See below for
additional info.
LED WIRING CONSIDERATIONS
• Do not connect to 24V electrical systems.
• Do not connect the speakers' LED lights to the
vessel's navigational lighting circuits.
• For short-circuit protection, we recommend
installing a fuse (not included) at EACH
speaker's YELLOW (+12V) LED power
connection lead. Refer to the RGB LED
Specifications table (at left) for recommended
fuse ratings.
• We recommend a minimum of 16AWG wire
size for each speaker's LED connection circuits.
• In addition to the above, we recommend
activating the speakers' LEDs thru a cabin/
interior lighting circuit that supplies +12V
via an existing switch. If an existing switched
circuit is not available, you may install a
dedicated toggle/rocker style switch that
will supply positive (+12V) power. Fuse this
main +12V connection according to the total
amperage demands of all LED circuits. Refer
to the RGB LED Specifications table (at left)
for individual current draw amounts and
recommended fuse ratings.
TRANSFLECTIVE™ RGB LED LIGHTING
Illuminated speaker models are equipped with
our innovative Transflective™ RGB LED lighting
system (patent pending). Fully integrated into the
speaker chassis, state-of-the-art LED rings are
positioned behind the woofer cones to produce
vibrant accent lighting that is remarkably smooth
and even, with no hot spots. A cable harness located
between the woofer terminals includes wire leads
for LED connections. Refer to the table below for
individual RGB wire connection info.
Note: Wiring connections at each speaker location
are required for LED functionality.
Wire Color RGB LED Connection
Red Red RGB LED Negative (–)
Green Green RGB LED Negative (–)
Blue Blue RGB LED Negative (–)
Yellow Main RGB LED Positive (+12V)
Adjustable control of RGB lighting may be
achieved with the use of an RGB lighting controller
(sold separately). Refer to the instructions of your
RGB lighting controller for specific connection info.
Note: When selecting an RGB lighting controller,
make sure that the total amperage demands of all
LED circuits does not exceed the output capacity
of the controller. Refer to the table below for the
individual current draw amounts and sum (add)
the total. For optimal performance, we recommend
using the JL Audio marine lighting controller
(MLC-RW).
