Your two Extreme Tower Speakers require external audio power amplification and an LED Cast-enabled controller to operate. The speaker LEDs must be controlled by a Sound Extreme product with LED Cast technology (sold separately).
Important: Do NOT make modifications to the speaker LED cable connectors. Do NOT connect this product to any other manufacturers’ LED controller. Connecting this product to any other manufacturer’s product may cause permanent damage to the product and shall VOID THE PRODUCT WARRANTY.
BEFORE you start your installations please READ the following options for power connections, wiring and mounting.
Audio and LEDCast Wiring Options
There are two power and signal connection jacks on the speakers:
- A round Aviation Connector Jack is inside the speaker’s Base-Mount.
- A square Deutsch Connector Jack is behind the speaker’s Base-Mount, behind a rubber cap. Your speakers include two Cable sets.
IMPORTANT
-
An Aviation Connector Jack Cover Cap is attached to the Base-Mount on the speaker.
If you choose to use the Deutsch Cable Set for wiring, before installation, you MUST screw the cap into the connector jack on the speaker, tightening it clockwise with a long nose plier (not included) or similar tool. Failing to do this will result in potential water or moisture penetration into the jack connector pins, causing damage to the speaker and VOIDING THE PRODUCT WARRANTY.
-
Only ONE set of cables can be used at a time. Do NOT wire the speakers with BOTH the Aviation Cables and Deutsch Cables.

-
Locking Harness — The Locking Harness is included to lock both the U-shaped Pin and the Swivel Flange on the Bottom Clamp Assembly. There are two different Locking Screw Latches for you to select from:
-
Locking Screw Latch with a Hex Nut – It is necessary to use an Allen wrench (included) to tighten or untighten the latch.
-
Locking Screw Latch with a Quick-Release Knob – A tool is NOT required to tighten or untighten the latch.
-
This option is more convenient to mount and unmount your speaker for portable use or theft deterrence. It is suggested that you use the rear Deutsch Connection Cable option with the Quick Release Knob as the round Aviation Cable option is difficult to connect and disconnect multiple times.
