and speakers on some bikes. To adjust, simply loosen the speaker/mirror 
stem bolt and rotate until a suitable location is found. Also make sure the 
brackets do not interfere with the throttle control or any other cabling when 
turning the handlebar when finished. 

 
Step-5: Route the Speaker Wires and Amplifier Input Wire 

Once the speakers are secured on the vehicle route the speaker

 

wires down the 

bars making sure to leave enough slack so the wires can be neatly secured when 
finished. Also begin routing the amplifier input jack 

(3.5mm)

 toward the control 

housing or wherever your audio control device will be located 

(mp3 player)

. Once 

the speaker wires and input wires are routed in a suitable location secure them 
using the supplied wire ties 

(12)

. When routing the speaker and amplifier wiring 

use caution to keep away from pinch points and heat sources. 
  

Step-6: Electrical Connections & Wiring 

When connecting power to the amplifier there are a few options depending on 
your setup, type of bike and personal preference. We recommend connecting the 
power to switched ignition so that the unit is only on when the bike is on. Finding 
switched ignition or 

ʻ

accessory power

ʼ

 will be purely dependent upon what 

vehicle is being installed on. See below for optional Harley power connection 
alternatives for easy installation. 
 
You can use a simple multi-meter to find switched ignition power; or your local 
shop or factory service manual should be able to easily identify which wires are 
suitable for powering accessories on your model. For this reason, generally it is 
not needed to connect an auxiliary fuse or switch, but when doing so use a 5A 
fuse and/or most any simple on/off switch if desired.

Connect the included Power Harness 

(5)

 quick connector to the amplifier 

power connector (red/black) as shown in 

figure 6-1.

 Route the power 

harness toward your accessory power location making sure to leave 
enough slack to neatly hide the wiring when finished. Again, make sure to 
stay away from pinch points and heat sources as you go.
