Main cabin speaker wires

[BigOrange]

For all have the experience tearing into the recent factory audio setups, where are the speaker wires for the starboard side main cabin at the amp rack? Mine are currently wired from head unit staying on starboard side of boat. I see the pre ran wires for the bow speakers (not installed from factory) and wires for the port side main cabin loose (available) at the amp rack -- but nothing for starboard side.

All the wires are run to the plug above the amp rack location on port side.

I don't see them but I'll double check again tomorrow. Already crawled out of the garage tonight

If I recall, if the cabins are all powered from the h/u, you will see a plug near where the starboard side speakers plug into the head unit. It should be labeled "crossover." Unplug the starboard side speakers from the hu and plug it into the eply plugged mentioned above.

On the amp rack side, you should be able to find the same empty plug labeled crossover. Find that and you've got everything you need.

So "crossover" currently should be loose on both ends running from amp rack to head unit via the bow. And by joining speaker wires going to star side under head unit to "crossover" and then hooking the other end of crossover to the amp should be the plan?

Also, since I see the wiring leaving the factory amp to the tower are all just clear jacketed speak wire, why are the wires at the tower that I cut to remove the Roswell pods colored-- for example grey, purple, etc.

The Roswell harness and the harness from the amp connect not far after the speaker wires exit the tower leg.

So after looking again tonight. Let me see if I have this correct:

In the pic below, the harness marked "P" has the "crossover" wires. This is at amp rack. So undo the harness -- and viola - 4 pairs of speak wires for 4 main cabin speakers to be hooked to amp. And, to complete circuit to starboard speaks, need to undo 2 harnesses under head unit and tie the 2 together that are the speaker wires (not the output from the HU.

Yep. You got it.

P is for port. The one over near the radio should be labeled S for starboard. Then there another set of 4 wires for the front two bow speakers.
