Important

• Please read the Hardware Guide, Installation Guide, and this User Guide before installation and use.

• If your model includes a rechargeable Battery Pack and you want to use the optional charge feature by connecting to your vehicle’s power source, please confirm you are only providing 12 volts to the speaker BEFORE installing the battery pack.

• CAUTION: Do NOT connect to a 24V, 48V or 72V power supply!
  The voltage for the power input is +12VDC. Connecting the ExtremeTower directly to higher voltages will cause damage to the speaker and cause the rechargeable battery to overcharge and overheat! In extreme cases, excess voltage can cause the battery to expand, leak, or potentially catch on FIRE! Any damage to the battery due to improper connections to higher voltages will VOID THE PRODUCT WARRANTY.

• The Amplified Speaker has a Remote Turn-On Input Wire. It provides a great feature that ensures there is no power drain when your vehicle is turned off. So, you will need to connect this input with the included Remote Turn-On Wire to your vehicle ignition switch. If you are not able to connect it to your vehicle ignition switch, connect this input to a rocker switch (not included), then connect the rocker switch to your vehicle’s power supply.

• The Amplified Extreme Tower Speaker is compatible with the ECOXGEAR audio and LED lighting Ecosystem, which includes LED Cast and Eco Cast Innovations. Look for the LED Cast and Eco Cast logos on the growing family of ECOXGEAR and
  Sound Extreme audio and lighting solutions. Eco Cast-enabled audio products are designed to be paired with one or more Eco Cast-enabled products. Simply initiate Eco Cast Transmitting Mode in one Sound Extreme or ECOXGEAR speaker and broadcast your music to one or more Eco Cast-enabled products in Receiving Mode.

• LED lights are known to create interference (noise) on some FM radio frequencies (stations). When you tune or seek a station, it is recommended that you turn the LED Party Lights off.

Switches

Power Mode Switch

The Power Mode Switch (Red Switch) is located behind the rear Cover.

• Remove the back Cover to view the switch. This switch modifies the Power On State when you turn on your vehicle ignition switch.
• When the Switch is set to the On position (factory default setting), the speaker will be turned on.
• When the Switch is set to the Standby position, the speaker will enter Standby Mode. You will need to press the Power Button on the Amplified Speaker or the RF Remote Control to turn the speaker on.

FM Antenna Switch

The Amplified Speaker has a built-in FM Antenna. It also includes an FM Dipole Antenna Jack for an optional external antenna connection and improved reception (dipole antenna sold separately). Next to the Power Mode Switch is the FM Antenna Switch (Blue Switch).

• When the Switch is set to the INT position (factory default setting), the speaker will use the internal FM Antenna.
• When the Switch is set to the EXT position, the speaker will use external antenna (sold separately) for FM radio reception.

EcoCast – Stream Music Between Multiple Speakers

The Amplified Extreme Tower Speaker has Eco Cast built-in, which allows the speaker to broadcast (transmit) or receive wireless audio streams to or from other Eco Cast-enabled products.
Eco Cast Streaming: Two Modes
Use the Mode Button on the Amplified Speaker to set the speaker into Eco Cast Transmitting Mode or Eco Cast Receiving Mode:

1. Eco Cast Transmitting Mode: When set in this Mode, the Eco Cast Transmitting speaker broadcasts audio to multiple wireless connected Eco Cast-enabled speakers.
   The Transmitting speaker’s audio streaming can be the music played from your phone (via Bluetooth), or FM radio.

2. Eco Cast Receiving Mode. When set in this Mode, the Amplified Speaker will receive audio from an Eco Cast Transmitting speaker, soundbar, or radio.
   Notes:
   · When set to Speaker Mode, the Amplified Speaker turns the Eco Cast capability off.
   · When you have two or more Amplified Speakers or other ECOXGEAR or Sound Extreme speakers bearing the Eco Cast symbol, you can build a broadcast system by initiating EcoCast Transmitting Mode in one Amplified Speaker and broadcasting your music to one or more Eco Cast-enabled speakers in Eco Cast Receiving Mode.

Eco Cast: First Two Amplified Speakers

Follow the steps below to pair two Amplified Tower Speakers:

1. Follow the Connecting and Playing Bluetooth Audio instructions to connect one Amplified Extreme Tower Speaker (Speaker A) to your Bluetooth device. After your device is connected to Speaker A, you can play your desired audio.

3. Once the connection between the speakers is successful, Speaker A will announce, “Connection successful,” and start playing audio.

Note : A speaker in Eco Cast Receiving Mode will play at the same volume level (Volume Sync) as received in the audio streams from the Eco Cast Transmitting speaker. You can press + or – on the EcoCast Receiving speaker to adjust the volume for the Eco Cast Receiving speaker only. However, as soon as the Eco Cast Transmitting speaker has a playback change (e.g., track change or a volume change), the Eco Cast Receiving speaker will once again Volume Sync with the Transmitting speaker.

Lighting Control Concepts

LED Lighting Zones, Modes, and Scenes
The Amplified Extreme Tower Speaker can also be controlled by the included Sound Extreme Universal Remote Control and the Sound Extreme Smartphone App. Below are some terms and definitions to help you better understand the Remote Control and the Sound Extreme App.

Zone
A Zone corresponds to all the LED lights that are connected directly to one physical connection on an LED Lighting Controller output, either integrated in the Amplified Tower Speaker or in an ExtremeController (sold separately). When you change a Zone status (on / off, Mode, etc.), the LEDs connected to that Zone will change accordingly. You can control one Zone or multiple Zones at a time.
The integrated LED Lighting Controller on the Amplified ExtremeTower Speaker supports 2 Zones:

• Zone 1 – The RGB LED Party Lights behind the speaker.
• Zone 2 – The Dome Light on the bottom of the speaker (the Dome Light is a utility light and only shines White).

Mode
There are 3 LED Mode categories, totaling in 44 Modes supported by the RF Remote. The SoundExtreme app can support many more Color Modes.

1. Color Mode: Each Color Mode lights up the LEDs in a solid color.
   There are 8 Color Buttons on the Remote Control: Red, Green, Blue, White, Orange, Yellow, Cyan, and Purple. You can create a custom color by utilizing the SoundExtreme Smartphone App.

2. Party Mode: There are 20 preset Party Modes accessible via the Remote Control and SoundExtreme Smartphone App. The app allows you to customize each of the 20 Party Modes, allowing for nearly unlimited color, cascading, and LED chasing options.

3. Music Mode: There are 16 Music Modes accessible via the Remote Control and SoundExtreme Smartphone App.

Scene

A Scene is programed via the SoundExtreme Smartphone App.
You can customize each Zone into a Scene (a preset). Setting the Scenes on the app allows a 1-button press to bring up your desired custom settings for all of the LED products connected to the LED Lighting Controller.
The Amplified Speaker has 5 Scene settings. They are user customizable and programmable. The default Scene settings are:

• Scene 1: Patriot 1
• Scene 2: Flowing colors
• Scene 3: Zoom
• Scene 4: Fading colors
• Scene 5: Christmas

RF Remote Control
