1.
Mounting the Speaker Clamps:
Get an idea where you want to mount the speakers. Mount the clamps to your bars.
They will tighten up when the speakers are installed.
Important:
Make sure the speakers will not interfere with your steering, or gauges.
2.
Mounting the Speakers:
Mount each speaker to the clamp and make sure they are secured, but do not apply
too much torque to the nut.
The
bottom mounting bolt is chromed stainless steel. The treads on this bolt can be
stripped easily if the nut tightened too much, or if the nut is not perfectly
aligned before tightening..
Run the speaker wires
down to where you are going to mount the amplifier.
3.
Amplifier Power Plug Hook Up: Find a place where you want to mount the
amplifier. Before you Plug the Amplifier Power Plug into the amplifier, make
sure that the power to the amplifier is turned OFF. On the power plug of the
amplifier, take the
(ground)
wire
and run it to either your frame, or the negative battery terminal. Take the
B+ (Power) wire it to a
fused power supply. Some common power supplies are, fuse box (most bikes have an
accessory spot), and the headlight wire. The power supply for the amplifier
needs to turn on and off with the key or with a toggle. Now you can plug the
amplifier Power Plug into the amplifier.
We
recommend that the amplifier turns off with the key, to prevent a dead battery.
4.
Amplifier Speaker Plug Hook Up:
Make sure the power supply to the amplifier is turned OFF. Plug the Speaker plug
into the Amplifier. The L+, and
L- wires go to the left speaker and
the R+,
and
R- wires go the right speaker. The
wires on the speakers are either a solid color or a color with a stripe.
Solid Color = Positive speaker wire, or Solid Color with Red Stripe = Positive
Speaker Wire
Color with a Black Stripe = Negative speaker wire.
You will need to hook the speaker outputs from the amplifier to the
corresponding chrome speaker wire.
5.
Volume
Control:
You can control the volume, with the volume control on your device, or by using
one of our optional in-line volume controls. If you have one of our in-line
volume controls, you can mount it to your handlebars using black cable ties, or
if you have our Chrome handlebar volume control you can bolt it to your
handlebars.
6.
USB
Charger Plug:
You can plug in a usb device to this spot, and it will charge your device.
If you have an APPLE device, you may need our USB Adapter Plug, before it will
be able to charge your device.
7.
Amplifier Input Plug:
You will find a 6’ black cable with a earphone jack on one end and a (RCA)
Red/White Plug on the other end. Plug the Red and the White ends into the Low
input of the Amplifier. Run the other end of the wire up to where your device is
going to be, and plug it into the earphone jack of your device.
8.
Amplifier Filter Setting:
Make sure the switch is in the OFF position.
Make
sure that all wires are away from hot areas, and that everything is secured to
your bike.
Before your turn on the power, make sure that your devices volume is turned
down. You can damage your speakers/amplifier if your device is at full or loud
volume when the amp is turned on. You will always want to start off with a low
volume and build up to a louder volume. This will prolong the life of your
speakers/amplifier.
Everything should now be hooked up correctly. You can now use the speakers.
When you first listen to your device, you will need to adjust the Level on the
amplifier to where the audio sounds best.
