2.1 Installation Precautions

Use only cables and the supplied accessories discussed in this manual. Failure do so may cause 
damage to the amplifier. The cable for speakers can ONLY be used for connecting the amplifier to 
the speakers. The cable for power can ONLY be used for connecting the amplifier to the battery. 

2.2 Connecting the Amplifier

1. Connect your source unit’s RCA outputs (left and right) to the amplifier’s left and right RCA 
input cables.

2.2.1 Connecting Inputs with Low-Level (RCA) Cables (recommended)

Always route wires and cables safely, avoid sharp edges and burns along the way. Always check 
the length of a wire before cutting.

2.1.2 Cutting Cables

The AQ-AD300.2-MICRO amplifier dissipates high levels of heat. As a result we suggest keeping 
the amplifier in a well-ventilated area. We don’t suggest keeping the amplifier in enclosed areas.

2.1.1 Positioning the Amplifier

Do not install the amplifier on top of, or above, the stereo installed in your Harley-Davidson Motorcycle faring as this 

could result in over heating of either the amplifier, the stereo, or both.

Left & Right

RCA

We recommend using Low-Level (RCA) input connections, as detailed in 3.2.1 above, however, 
should RCA outputs not be available from your stereo the AQ-AD300.2-MICRO allows for signal 
input using your stereo’s speaker output cables.

1. Open the control panel cover by removing the four screws securing the cover and connect the 
supplied High-Level Input Adaptor.

2.2.2 Connecting Inputs with High-Level (Speaker) Cables

Using High-Level signal inputs requires the removal of the control panel cover and will significantly reduce the 

amplifiers ingress performance for both water and dust. This will also void warranty cover.
