Okay, diagrams as requested.
Note that my juke is the first LaserStar model (CD-100) and uses crossover #61038801 (later CD100 models may use a different crossover). This device installs onto J1 of the crossover board, meaning that, should the need arise, the original connection to J1 can be restored quickly and easily.
The octal socket and cement resistors are glued to the base of the plastic box. An opening is cut into the top of the box to accommodate the relay.
Note: I am not 100% convinced of the need for the dummy load resistors, but I included them for good measure so that the amp "sees" a load at power-up until the speakers are switched into circuit at the conclusion of the time delay.

For simplicity and small form factor, I opted for an all-in-1 time delay relay module which has a variable time delay. I opted for 5 seconds. The pin-outs for the time delay relay are as follows. (Pins 2 & 7 are the AC connections.)
