Thank you for choosing the Hogtunes REV 225-AA Amplifier for 1998-2013
Bikes. Since positive word of mouth is the best way to grow our business, we
want your new system to work as well as it was designed to. If you have any
questions or concerns, we are here to help.
To help protect your bike’s electrical system and battery, the amp has a built
in feature where it will turn itself off if it sees less than 10.5 volts, whether
the bike is running or not. If you’re listening to your stereo while not riding,
this feature can help protect your battery so the bike can still start. If you’re
riding and the amp shuts off, this could be showing a potential issue with your
charging system. If this feature is activated and the amp shuts off, it will turn
the amp back on again if the voltage exceeds the 10.5 volt threshold.
REV 225-AA is rated for 112.5 watts per channel @ 2 ohms. Although this
amplifier makes its highest power with 2 ohm speakers, if Hogtunes 5.75
ohm speakers or 4 ohm car speakers are used there will still be a noticeable
improvement in volume and sound quality.
The REV 225-AA amplifier is a Class D design. It should be
understood that ALL Class D amplifiers, REgARDLEss of bRAnD, cause
a reduction in fM reception. The REV 225-AA features a proprietary
circuit design called R.E.M.I.T. (Reduced Electro Magnetic Interference
Technology) that Hogtunes believes gives the bEsT fM reception
available for any Class D Amplifier designed for a motorcycle.
If you add a 2nd or 3rd model amplifier to your system, reduction
of fM reception is increased and is considered normal.
Hogtunes understands that some riders prefer the cosmetics of
in fairing antennas, however it should be noted that noTHIng
works as well as the factory antenna. If fM is an important part of
your riding experience, we strongly advise against the use of
any in fairing type antenna!
