Marine Subwoofer  
Thank you for choosing a JL Audio Marine Subwoofer.  
With proper installation, your new speaker  
will deliver years of listening pleasure.  
We strongly recommend that you have your subwoofer installed  
by your authorized JL Audio dealer. The installation  
professionals employed by your dealer have the necessary tools and experience to  
properly install this product. If you prefer to perform  
your own installation, please read this instruction manual  
completely before beginning the process.

While this speaker is designed to be water and  
spray resistant, it is not designed to be submerged  
or to withstand high-pressure water spray.  
Please exercise care when washing your boat to  
avoid damaging your speaker. Do not install on  
submersibles, personal watercraft or any other  
vessel likely to be under water at any time.

Interchangeable Logo Badges for Sport Grille  
model subwoofers are included to further customize  
your installation. The design of the Sport Grille allows  
for the JL Audio logo to be added in your choice of  
included colors and oriented in the manner that best  
suits your installation.  
Prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels in  
excess of 100dB can cause permanent hearing loss.  
This high-performance speaker can exceed this  
level. Please exercise restraint in its operation in  
order to preserve your ability to enjoy its fidelity.  
When installing a subwoofer in your vessel, it is  
extremely important to secure it firmly. This applies  
not only to the woofer itself, but also the structure  
it is mounted to. If not firmly attached, the speaker  
can become a dangerous projectile in a collision.  
Please review the mounting information carefully  
and use the supplied marine-grade hardware to  
mount this product.  
NOTE: A left and a right badge of each color is  
included. These two different orientations ensure  
the “JL Audio” Logo will read correctly wherever  
positioned (most commonly the 3:00 or 9:00  
position).

Remove the adhesive backing from the badge  
and affix the badge to the grille using the small  
positioning hole as a guide. See diagram at right.

The enclosure recommendations listed are external dimensions which assume the use of 3/4” (19mm) thick material. If you are using 5/8” (16mm) thick material, subtract 1/4”  
(6.5mm) from each dimension. Do not use any material with a thickness of less than 5/8” (16mm) as this may compromise the rigidity of the enclosure.  
All enclosure volumes listed are net internal volumes! Box volume displacement, port displacement and brace displacement must be added to obtain the final gross internal  
volume. All enclosure dimensions listed have already taken this into account.

From reliability standpoint, this zone  
represents a very comfortable operating power  
range for each driver. This level of power will not  
stress the woofer but will not extract all of its  
performance potential, either.  
Use of less than the minimum power level  
will not damage the woofer, but may result in  
unsatisfactory performance.

This zone represents the best compromise  
between long-term reliability, high-output and  
low-distortion performance. This power level is  
lower than the woofer’s continuous power rating  
(as published in its specifications), but you will still  
be taking advantage of the woofer’s, low-distortion  
performance range without undue risk of failure.  
Slightly more SPL will be gained by pushing the  
power into this zone, but typically not more than  
2dB, compared to the light gray zone. The subwoofer  
driver is designed to operate safely up to this power  
range, but not beyond. Operate with caution.  
We do not recommend operating woofers at  
this level of power. In this zone, there is a very  
high probability that the driver will fail due to  
excessive heat and/or mechanical stress.  
subwoofer drivers operated at these levels of  
power are noT covered under warranty.  
when designing systems with our drivers, it is very important to achieve a good power match between the subwoofer amplifier and the subwoofer driver's capabilities. The power levels listed in the above  
chart represent continuous (rms) amplifier power per woofer and assume that the user will regularly make full use of that power without drastically overdriving the amplifier(s). make sure you factor system  
impedance and the total number of subwoofers into your calculations. adhering to these power recommendations will result in systems that are both reliable and enjoyable.
