Default Going from 4 to 6 speakers
Hello audio gurus , I currently have a hoppe fairing on my 2005 Road King. It has a Mitsubishi eclipse stereo with no amp and 4 speakers in the fairing. I want to add 2 speaker pods to my tour pack. There are no more speaker connections on the back of the stereo but there are pigtails marked line out - rear , front and non fader. What is the best way to do this ? Thanks in advance , Fred

The line out is for an amp. You are going to have to use an amp for the rear speakers.
