! IMPORTANT

If you choose to perform the installation yourself, it is absolutely vital that the Stealthbox® be properly mounted to the vehicle according to these instructions. Failure to mount the enclosure properly presents two problems:

1) The sub-bass performance will suffer due to the movement of the enclosure caused by the force exerted by the woofer(s).
2) A loose enclosure presents a serious safety hazard in the event of a collision or sudden deceleration.

INSTALLATION DIFFICULTY:

ESTIMATED TIME: 1 HOUR

JL AUDIO - Quality & Design - SBX STEALTHBOX®

Thank you for choosing a JL Audio Stealthbox* for your automotive sound system. With proper installation, your new vehicle-specific enclosed subwoofer system will deliver years of listening pleasure.

We strongly recommend that you have your new Stealthbox* installed by your authorized JL Audio dealer. The installation professionals employed by your dealer have the necessary tools and experience to disassemble and reassemble your vehicle properly. If you prefer to perform your own installation, please read this installation guide completely before beginning the process.

WIRING INFORMATION

Wiring Harness Info

Wire Size Wire Color Use
16 AWG	Red/Stripe	Speaker Positive (+)
	Black/Stripe	Speaker Negative (-)
20 AWG	Red	Red RGB LED Negative (-)
	Green	Green RGB LED Negative (-)
	Blue	Blue RGB LED Negative (-)
	Yellow	Main RGB LED Positive (+)

Adjustable control of RGB lighting may be achieved with the use of an RGB lighting controller (sold separately). 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. For each M3-650X speaker, a 150 mA fuse is recommended. For optimal performance, we recommend using the JL Audio marine lighting controller (MLC-RW).

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 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 YH.I.LOW (+12V) leads together (parallel) and connect to a switched +12V supply.

LED Wiring Considerations

• For short-circuit protection, we recommend installing a fuse (not included) at EACH speaker's YELLOW (+12V) LED power connection lead.
• We recommend activating the speakers' LEDs thru an 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 demands of all LED circuits.

POWER RECOMMENDATION

JL Audio recommends high quality amplifiers such as the JL Audio MX280/4. The diagram below shows the recommended crossover settings for the MX280/4. For a detailed description of the amplifier settings, consult the owner's manual for the amplifier. If another amplifier is being used, please reference this illustration and use similar settings on that amplifier.

Front Input Voltage Low / High Channel Mode Input Voltage Low / High Rear Input Sens Filter Freq (Hz) 80 150 Filter Mode 30 400 Off/HP/LP 80 150 Filter Mode 30 400 Off/HP/LP Filter Freq (Hz)

CONNECTIONS

Using quality power, signal, and speaker wire is essential in ensuring the performance of your Stealthbox ^6 . JL Audio recommends using a 4 AWG power kit such as the XD-PCS4-1B for your Stealthbox ^9 amplifier. Other kits are available should you be using more than one amplifier. Signal wire such as the JL Audio Premium Audio Interconnect Cables should be used to provide signal for both channels of the amplifier. JL Audio recommends using 12 AWG speaker wire for subwoofers such as our XC-BCS12-25.
