INITIAL TEAR-DOWN
IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY, GET FAMILIAR WITH YOUR NEW SYSTEM BY BROWSING THE “USER GUIDE” SECTION OF THIS
MANUAL. UNDERSTANDING YOUR EQUIPMENT FIRST CAN MAKE THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS EASIER TO FOLLOW.
1. WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH OFF, REMOVE THE SEAT.
WARNING: KEEP THE IGNITION SWITCH OFF THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE INSTALLATION PROCESS.
TIP: REFER TO MANUFACTURER INSTRUCTIONS IF NECESSARY.
2. DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE (–) SIDE OF THE BATTERY, FOLLOWED BY THE POSITIVE (+) SIDE.
WARNING: BE SURE TO PREVENT THE LOOSE BATTERY CABLES FROM CONTACTING THE EXPOSED BATTERY
TERMINALS ACCIDENTALLY DURING THE INSTALLATION PROCESS.
3. CAREFULLY REMOVE THE FRONT FAIRING COVER, NOTING WHICH HOLE EACH SCREW COMES
FROM, AS LENGTHS AND SIZES MAY DIFFER.
TIP: REFER TO MANUFACTURER INSTRUCTIONS IF NECESSARY, AND DON’T FORGET TO COVER YOUR FENDER.
WHILE YOU HAVE THIS THING APART, TAKE A MINUTE TO CHECK A FEW THINGS AT THE SAME TIME. BURNT OUT GAUGE
BULBS, LOOSE HARNESS CONNECTORS CAUSING RATTLES, THAT SEAL THAT NEVER FAILS TO FALL OFF THE EDGE OF
THE INNER FAIRING WITHOUT SOME TRIM ADHESIVE, INSTALLING THOSE NEW GAUGES YOU’VE BEEN WANTING TO GET…
4. DISCONNECT THE SPEAKER WIRING FROM THE FACTORY SPEAKERS (IF APPLICABLE).
4.1. FACTORY SOURCE UNIT
2 AND 4 CHANNEL SOURCE,
DISCONNECT THE FRONT
SPEAKER WIRES FROM THE
FACTORY SPEAKERS IN THE
FAIRING AND PUT ASIDE FOR
HIGH-LEVEL INPUT USE LATER.
4 CHANNEL SOURCE, IF RETAINING YOUR FRONT/REAR
FADER IS REQUIRED, GAIN ACCESS TO THE AUXILIARY
HARNESS AND CUT THE 4 WIRES IN A PLACE WHERE YOU
CAN EASILY BARREL CRIMP NEW WIRES TO ALL 8 WIRE
ENDS. PUT ASIDE FOR REAR HIGH-LEVEL INPUT AND NEW
SPEAKER WIRE USE LATER.

COMPONENT MOUNTING
USING VELCRO®AS A MOUNTING METHOD HAS THE FOLLOWING ADVANTAGES; IT HOLDS WELL UNDER EXTREME
VIBRATION CONDITIONS, PROVIDES SOME MEASURE OF SHOCK ABSORPTION, AND ALLOWS FOR SIMPLE INSTALLATION,
REMOVAL, AND ADJUSTMENT. HOWEVER, ONCE YOU STICK THOSE TWO SIDES TOGETHER WITH SOME PRESSURE, YOU’D
DO WELL TO USE A PUTTY KNIFE SEPARATING THE TWO AGAIN. USING A PIECE OF PAPER OR THIN CARDBOARD BETWEEN
THE 2 PIECES OF VELCRO WHEN TEST FITTING CAN MAKE THINGS A LOT EASIER.
NOTE: BE SURE TO CLEAN ALL ADHESIVE MATING SURFACES WITH THE INCLUDED ALCOHOL PADS BEFORE ATTACHING
THE ADHESIVE VELCRO®PATCHES. ONCE THE ADHESIVE SIDE IS APPLIED TO A CLEAN SURFACE, WORK OUT THE AIR
POCKETS WITH YOUR FINGER TIPS FOR MAXIMUM HOLDING STRENGTH AND LONGEVITY.
5. DETERMINE THE MOUNTING LOCATION FOR THE AMPLIFIER BASED ON YOUR FAIRING:
5.1. BATWING FAIRINGS
MOUNT THE MAIN AMPLIFIER (A) ON TOP OF THE
SOURCE UNIT USING ONE OF THESE METHODS:
2005 AND OLDER - USE THE LARGE VELCRO® PATCH
PROVIDED.
2006 AND NEWER - CUT THE LARGE VELCRO® PATCH IN
HALF AND CHOOSE THE APPROPRIATE METHOD BELOW:
WITH BOTH FACTORY XM AND CB MODULES INSTALLED ABOVE THE SOURCE UNIT, USE THE TWO PATCH
HALVES, ONE ON EACH MODULE.
WITH NO FACTORY MODULES INSTALLED ABOVE THE SOURCE UNIT, USE THE TWO PATCH HALVES, ONE ON
EACH SIDE OF THE RIB RUNNING DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE SOURCE UNIT.
WITH ONLY ONE FACTORY MODULE INSTALLED ABOVE THE SOURCE UNIT, INSTALL THE HKA150 ADAPTER
BRACKET (SOLD SEPARATELY) IN THE BLANK MODULE SLOT, AND THEN USE THE TWO PATCH HALVES, ONE
ON EACH MODULE.
REMOVE BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT FACTORY SPEAKER BRACES AND INSTALL THE SATELLITE
BRACKET TO THE INNER FAIRING BRACE ON EITHER
SIDE REUSING THE FACTORY HARDWARE. MOUNT THE
SATELLITE AMPLIFIER (B) TO THE BRACKET USING THE
SMALL VELCRO®PATCH PROVIDED.
5.2. SHARKNOSE FAIRINGS
MOUNT THE MAIN AMPLIFIER (A) ON THE FLAT SPACE
BENEATH THE GLOVE BOX USING THE LARGE VELCRO®
PATCH PROVIDED. MOUNT THE SATELLITE AMPLIFIER
(B); IN FRONT OF MAIN AMPLIFIER USING THE SMALL
VELCRO®PATCH PROVIDED.
5.3. CUSTOM INSTALLS – MOUNTING LOCATIONS CAN VARY, AND MUST BE TEST FIT ON A ONE-
BY-ONE BASIS. CHECK FOR PROPER CLEARANCES BEFORE CONTINUING WITH THE
INSTALLATION. THE WIRING KIT MAY NOT INCLUDE LONG ENOUGH WIRING NEEDED TO
COMPLETE SOME CUSTOM INSTALLATIONS.
FOR ALL “TOP OF THE SOURCE UNIT” INSTALLATIONS, ENSURE THAT THE MAIN AMPLIFIER IS POSITIONED AS FAR BACK
TOWARDS THE INNER FAIRING AS POSSIBLE.

WIRING THE MAIN AMPLIFIER
SOME BIKES MAY REQUIRE THAT THE GAS TANK BE LOOSENED OR REMOVED TO PROPERLY ROUTE THE POWER WIRE.
PLEASE TAKE EVERY POSSIBLE PRECAUTION NECESSARY WHEN DEALING WITH YOUR GAS TANK! DEFINITELY REFER TO
MANUFACTURER INSTRUCTIONS IF NECESSARY.
6. ROUTE AND CONNECT THE POWER WIRE (WITHOUT THE IN-LINE FUSE INSTALLED) FROM THE
POSITIVE (+) BATTERY TERMINAL (FIG. 6.A), UNDER THE RIGHT SIDE (PASSENGER, STARBOARD,
ETC.) OF THE GAS TANK, THROUGH THE FAIRING, AND TO THE MAIN AMPLIFIER. THE BLACK
SLEEVE SHOULD END UP COVERING THE EXPOSED POWER WIRE BETWEEN THE GAS TANK AND
THE FAIRING.
WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL THE IN-LINE FUSE UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO DO SO.
NOTE: ON 2006 AND NEWER, WE RECOMMEND UTILIZING THE FACTORY WIRING HARNESS CHANNEL UNDER THE
TANK WITH A SUITABLE WIRE FEEDING TOOL OR DEVICE. USE OF A COAT HANGER IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
FIGURE 6 – POWER AND GROUND ROUTING AND CONNECTIONS
7. CONNECT THE GROUND WIRE TO CHASSIS GROUND (FIG. 8.B). TYPICALLY AN EXISTING SCREW
OR NUT ON THE BIKE FRAME SHOULD BE USED, PREFERABLY WHERE A FACTORY GROUND
STRAP ALREADY EXISTS.
TIP: THE MAJORITY OF PROBLEM INSTALLS ARE THE RESULT OF A POOR GROUND. REFER TO “BE WELL
GROUNDED” IN THE INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS SECTION FOR MORE INFORMATION.
8. CONNECT THE MAIN I/O HARNESS. ROUTE AND CONNECT THE REMOTE TURN-ON WIRE FROM THE
AMPLIFIER LABELED REM TO ONE OF THE
FOLLOWING LOCATIONS:
8.1. FACTORY SOURCE UNITS – TO UTILIZE THE
CIGARETTE LIGHTER METHOD, DISCONNECT
THE POWER TERMINAL FROM THE BACK OF
THE LIGHTER (FIG. 8.A) AND CONNECT IT TO
THE MALE TERMINAL OF THE REMOTE TURN-
ON WIRE (FIG. 8.B). THEN CONNECT THE
FEMALE TERMINAL TO THE LIGHTER
TERMINAL (FIG. 8.C). THIS WILL TURN THE
AMPLIFIER ON/OFF WITH THE IGNITION

CONNECTORS DEFINED
MAIN POWER CONNECTOR:
THIS CONNECTOR IS FOR YOUR MAIN POWER AND GOUND CONNECTIONS. THIS CONNECTS THE BATTERY
AND GROUND CABLES TO THE AMPLIFIER. WITHOUT THIS, YOUR AMPLIFIER WOULD SIMPLY NEVER
WORK.
MAIN I/O CONNECTOR:
THIS CONNECTOR COMBINES FRONT HIGH LEVEL INPUT, FRONT SPEAKER OUTPUT, AND REMOTE TURN-
ON. HIGH LEVEL INPUT ALLOWS THE AMPLIFIER TO USE SPEAKER OUTPUTS FROM A SOURCE UNIT AS
INPUTS TO THE AMPLIFIER. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO CONNECT A FACTORY HARLEY-DAVIDSON®
SOURCE UNIT TO THIS SYSTEM. FRONT SPEAKER OUTPUTS WILL BE CONNECTED TO YOUR FRONT
SPEAKERS. REMOTE TURN-ON IS USED TO TURN 0N/OFF THE AMPLIFIER BY CONNECTING THIS TO A
SWITCHED 12V SOURCE.

CONNECTORS DEFINED
LOW LEVEL INPUT CONNECTOR(S):
THIS CONNECTOR ALLOWS THE AMPLIFIER TO USE INDUSTRY STANDARD RCA OUTPUTS FROM AN
AFTERMARKET SOURCE UNIT AS INPUTS TO THE AMPLIFIER. THIS IS THE PREFERRED METHOD WHEN
RCA OUTPUTS ARE AVAILABLE, AND WILL PRODUCE THE CLEANEST SOURCE SIGNAL TO THE
AMPLIFIER. IF YOU ARE INSTALLING A 4 CHANNEL SYSTEM ON A 4 CHANNEL SOURCE UNIT, BOTH
THE FRONT AND REAR LOW LEVEL INPUT CABLES ARE IDENTICAL, SO IT DOESN’T MATTER WHICH
ONE YOU USE FOR FRONT OR REAR; THE CONNECTIONS ARE THE SAME.
NOTE: WE USE INDUSTRY STANDARD 3.5MM HEADPHONE STYLE JACKS ON THE AMPLIFIER DUE TO THE SPACE
CONSTRAINTS (2 3.5MM PHONO-JACKS ARE A LOT SMALLER THAN 4 RCA JACKS). ALTHOUGH WE HIGHLY
RECOMMEND USING THE LOW LEVEL INPUT CABLES WE SUPPLY WITH THE KIT, TECHNICALLY YOU SHOULD BE ABLE
TO UTILIZE ANY STANDARD RCA TO PHONO ADAPTER CABLE FOUND AT YOUR LOCAL ELECTRONIC STORE TO MAKE
THESE CONNECTIONS. IT’S OUR GOAL TO KEEP THINGS SIMPLE AND STANDARD IF AT ALL POSSIBLE.
REMOTE CONNECTOR:
THIS CONNECTOR IS USED TO CONNECT OUR REMOTE CONTROL MODULE.
CONTROL CONNECTORS:
THE CONTROL CONNECTORS ARE USED TO CONNECT THE SATELLITE AMPLIFIER TO THE MAIN
AMPLIFIER. THE PURPOSE OF THE MODULAR SATELLITE AMPLIFIER IS SIMPLE; TO GIVE YOU THE
ULTIMATE INSTALLATION FLEXIBILITY WITHOUT ONE GIANT BOX. IT’S HOW WE’RE ABLE TO FIT UP TO
4 CHANNELS IN AS SMALL A SPACE AS A BATWING FAIRING.

INPUT MODE SWITCH:
THIS SWITCH SELECTS WHICH MODE OF INPUT THE AMPLIFIER IS CONFIGURED FOR, HIGH LEVEL
INPUT OR LOW LEVEL INPUT. THE OPTIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
HI – HIGH LEVEL INPUT MODE – USED WHEN CONNECTING TO SPEAKER OUTPUTS FROM A
SOURCE UNIT AS INPUTS TO THE AMPLIFIER. THIS IS THE INPUT MODE TO CONNECT A
FACTORY HARLEY-DAVIDSON®SOURCE UNIT TO THIS SYSTEM.
LO – LOW LEVEL INPUT MODE – USED WHEN CONNECTING INDUSTRY STANDARD RCA OUTPUTS
FROM AN AFTERMARKET SOURCE UNIT AS INPUTS TO THE AMPLIFIER. THIS IS THE PREFERRED
METHOD WHEN RCA OUTPUTS ARE AVAILABLE, AND WILL PRODUCE THE CLEANEST SOURCE
SIGNAL TO THE AMPLIFIER.
CHANNEL MODE SWITCH:
THIS SWITCH SELECTS HOW MANY CHANNELS OF INPUT THE AMPLIFIER IS CONFIGURED FOR, 2 OR
4 CHANNELS. THE OPTIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
2CH - 2 CHANNEL MODE – USED WHEN ONLY 2 CHANNEL SOURCE IS CONNECTED TO THE
MAIN AMPLIFIER. USING THIS SETTING WILL FORCE THE FRONT AND REAR OUTPUTS TO BE
DRIVEN BY ONLY THE FRONT PAIR OF INPUTS.
4CH – 4 CHANNEL MODE – USED WHEN 4 CHANNEL SOURCE IS CONNECTED TO THE MAIN
AMPLIFIER. USING THIS SETTING WILL FORCE THE FRONT AND REAR OUTPUTS TO BE DRIVEN
BY BOTH FRONT AND REAR INPUTS INDEPENDENTLY.
NOTE: THIS ALLOWS FRONT TO REAR FADING FROM THE SOURCE UNIT (IF AVAILABLE).
INPUT GAIN ADJUSTMENT:
A COMMON MISCONCEPTION ABOUT GAIN ADJUSTMENT ON AMPLIFIERS IS THAT “MORE GAIN =
MORE VOLUME”. ACTUALLY, IT’S NOT THE VOLUME THAT’S BEING INCREASED, BUT RATHER THE
AMPLIFIER’S SENSITIVITY TO THE SOURCE INPUT. BY INCREASING THE GAIN LEVEL, YOU’RE
INCREASING HOW SENSITIVE THE AMPLIFIER IS TO THE SIGNAL IT RECEIVES FROM THE SOURCE
UNIT. THIS IS WHY IT’S IMPORTANT TO SET THE GAIN PROPERLY, RATHER THAN SIMPLY TURNING
THE KNOB UNTIL IT’S REALLY LOUD.
GAIN ALLOWS THE FOLLOWING NOMINAL OPERATING LEVEL ADJUSTMENTS:
LOW LEVEL INPUT (RCA LINE-IN) - 250MV TO 2.5V
HIGH LEVEL INPUT (SPEAKER-IN) - 500MV TO 5V
THESE VOLTAGE LEVELS CAN ACCOMMODATE VIRTUALLY ANY HARLEY-DAVIDSON®OR OTHER BRAND
OF CAR, MARINE, OR MOTORCYCLE SOURCE UNITS, AS WELL AS JUST ABOUT ANYTHING THAT HAS
RCA OR LINE-OUT STYLE OUTPUTS.
WARNING: SETTING THE GAIN TOO HIGH IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET “MORE VOLUME” CAN NOT ONLY CAUSE PREMATURE
DISTORTION, BUT CAN ALSO DAMAGE YOUR SPEAKERS. IF YOUR SYSTEM CONFIGURATION RESULTS IN YOUR GAIN
CONTROL BEING SET OUTSIDE THE TYPICAL RANGE AS INDICATED ABOVE, CALL US TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.

CONTROLS DEFINED
CROSSOVER MODE SWITCH:
THIS SWITCH SELECTS WHICH RANGE OF FREQUENCIES THAT THE BUILT-IN CROSSOVER WILL
FILTER. EACH MODE IS EQUIPPED WITH 12DB PER OCTAVE ELECTRONIC FILTERS FOR PRECISE
FREQUENCY ATTENUATION WITH MINIMAL PHASE DISTORTION. THE OPTIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
LOW – LOW-PASS – USED WHEN SPEAKER OUTPUTS WILL DRIVE SUBWOOFERS, OR LOW RANGE
SPEAKERS ONLY.
HIGH – HIGH-PASS (DEFAULT) – USED WHEN SPEAKER OUTPUTS WILL DRIVE MIDDLE TO HIGH
RANGE SPEAKERS ONLY (RECOMMENDED SETTING FOR ALL 5.25” SPEAKERS).
CROSSOVER FILTER ADJUSTMENT:
THE PURPOSE OF A CROSSOVER CIRCUIT IS TO FILTER OUT A SPECIFIC RANGE OF FREQUENCIES
FROM A SPEAKER’S INPUT TO MAXIMIZE IT’S PERFORMANCE. FOR A TWEETER, THE GOAL IS TO
FILTER OUT LOW (BASS) RANGE FREQUENCIES TO MAXIMIZE THE HIGH RANGE (TREBLE) RESPONSE.
CONVERSELY, FOR A SUBWOOFER, THE GOAL IS TO FILTER OUT THE HIGH AND MID RANGE
FREQUENCIES, LEAVING ONLY LOW FREQUENCIES TO PLAY THROUGH THE WOOFER.
THERE ARE TWO KINDS OF CROSSOVER IMPLEMENTATIONS, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE:
ACTIVE CROSSOVER – THIS FILTERS SELECTED FREQUENCIES BEFORE THE AUDIO SIGNAL IS
AMPLIFIED, BETWEEN THE SOURCE UNIT AND AMPLIFIER. OUR BUILT-IN CROSSOVERS ARE AN
EXAMPLE OF THIS TYPE OF CROSSOVER.
THE GOOD - BY REMOVING UNWANTED FREQUENCIES FROM THE SIGNAL BEFORE IT’S AMPLIFIED, YOUR OUTPUT
BECOMES MORE EFFICIENT, ONLY WORKING TO AMPLIFY THE DESIRED RANGE OF FREQUENCIES.
THE BAD - BY REMOVING UNWANTED FREQUENCIES FROM THE SIGNAL BEFORE IT’S AMPLIFIED, YOU ARE DEDICATING
THOSE FILTERED CHANNELS TO ONLY PROVIDE A CERTAIN FREQUENCY RANGE.
PASSIVE CROSSOVER – THIS FILTERS SELECTED FREQUENCIES AFTER THE AUDIO SIGNAL HAS
BEEN AMPLIFIED, BETWEEN THE AMPLIFIER AND SPEAKER. SOME SPEAKERS ARE SOLD WITH
PASSIVE CROSSOVERS INCLUDED, TYPICALLY A SMALL PLASTIC ENCLOSURE (LIKE OUR
COMPONENT SERIES), OR CAPACITORS AND/OR COILS MOUNTED DIRECTLY TO THE SPEAKER (LIKE
OUR UPGRADE AND PERFORMANCE SERIES).
THE GOOD - BY REMOVING UNWANTED FREQUENCIES FROM THE SIGNAL AFTER IT’S AMPLIFIED, YOUR AMPLIFIER’S
OUTPUT IS STILL FULL RANGE, ALLOWING MORE FLEXIBLE USE, ABLE TO DRIVE TWEETERS, MID-RANGE, AND
SUBWOOFERS ALIKE.
THE BAD - BY REMOVING UNWANTED FREQUENCIES FROM THE SIGNAL AFTER IT’S AMPLIFIED, YOU ARE FORCING THE
FULL RANGE OF FREQUENCIES TO BE AMPLIFIED, REDUCING THE AMPLIFIER’S MAXIMUM POSSIBLE EFFICIENCY.
OUR BUILT-IN ACTIVE CROSSOVER(S) ARE FULLY ADJUSTABLE FROM 50HZ TO 250HZ, USING
EITHER A LOW-PASS MODE (BASS ONLY) OR HIGH-PASS MODE (MIDRANGE AND HIGHS ONLY)
TO EASILY MAXIMIZE YOUR SPEAKER’S POTENTIAL.

TEST AND TUNE
SETTING THE GAIN:
WITH THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO SET THE GAIN CONTROL:
1. TURN THE GAIN CONTROL(S) ALL THE WAY DOWN (COUNTER-CLOCKWISE).USING THE
ADJUSTMENT TOOL PROVIDED.
2. TURN THE KEY TO THE ACCESSORY POSITION, AND THEN TURN THE SOURCE UNIT ON.
3. SET ALL TONE (BASS, TREBLE) AND EQUALIZATION CONTROLS (BALANCE, FADE) ON THE
SOURCE UNIT TO “FLAT” OR “0”, AND TURN OFF “LOUD” OR “LOUDNESS”. IF A SEPARATE
EQUALIZER IS USED, DISABLE OR SET ALL OF IT’S CONTROLS TO “FLAT” OR “0”.
NOTE: IF CONFIGURING MORE THAN 2 CHANNELS, SET THE FADE CONTROL TO “FRONT” ONLY, PROCEED WITH
THESE INSTRUCTIONS, AND THEN SET FADE TO “REAR” ONLY AND REPEAT.
4. WHILE PLAYING A STANDARD NON-MP3 CD1, SET THE SOURCE UNIT’S VOLUME CONTROL TO
75% OF MAXIMUM LEVEL.
5. SLOWLY INCREASE TO GAIN CONTROL UNTIL YOU HEAR A SLIGHT DISTORTION
OF THE AUDIO PLAYBACK AND THE STATUS LIGHT ON THE AMPLIFIER STARTS
BLINKING. THE STATUS LIGHT BEGINS TO BLINK WHEN THE AMPLIFIER’S INPUTS
OR OUTPUTS ARE CLIPPING. THIS IS THE MAX YOUR GAIN SHOULD BE SET.
WARNING: SETTING THE GAIN TOO HIGH IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET “MORE VOLUME” CAN NOT ONLY CAUSE PREMATURE
DISTORTION, BUT CAN ALSO DAMAGE YOUR SPEAKERS.
SETTING THE CROSSOVER:
WITH THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO SET THE CROSSOVERS:
1. SELECT THE DESIRED MODE FOR EACH CROSSOVER MODE SWITCH; LP FOR LOW-
PASS MODE OR HP FOR HIGH-PASS MODE (DEFAULT).
2. SET ALL TONE (BASS, TREBLE) AND EQUALIZATION CONTROLS (BALANCE, FADE) ON THE
SOURCE UNIT TO “FLAT” OR “0”, AND TURN OFF “LOUD” OR “LOUDNESS”. IF A SEPARATE
EQUALIZER IS USED, DISABLE OR SET ALL OF IT’S CONTROLS TO “FLAT” OR “0”.
3. WHILE PLAYING A STANDARD NON-MP3 CD1, SET THE CROSSOVER FILTER
ADJUSTER TO THE DESIRED FREQUENCY USING THE PROVIDED ADJUSTMENT
TOOL (ADJUSTABLE FROM 50HZ TO 250HZ).
NOTE: FOR SYSTEMS WITH MORE THAN 2 CHANNELS, FOLLOW BOTH OF THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE FRONT AND
REAR SEPARATELY. ONCE YOU’VE CONFIGURED EACH CHANNEL SECTION, YOU CAN FINE-TUNE THE OVERALL SYSTEM
SETTINGS FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE.
NOTE1: THIS IS THE PREFERRED AUDIO TESTING SOURCE METHOD, AS MP3, XM, FM, AND AM ALL HAVE SOME LEVEL OF
COMPRESSION OR DEGRADATION INVOLVED, WHICH CAN LEAD TO VARYING RESULTS. IF THE PREFERRED METHOD IS
NOT AVAILABLE, USE THE MOST COMMON PLAYBACK METHOD YOU USE WHILE RIDING.
