LED Equipped Models
Integrated Transflective™ RGB LED lighting system (patent-pending) delivers
smooth, even accent illumination, with no hot spots. LED functionality requires
separate wiring at each speaker location. Adjustable control of RGB lighting requires
the use of an RGB lighting controller (sold separately). For optimal performance, we
recommend using the JL Audio marine lighting controller (MLC-RW).
