Did the exact same setup on my friends bike and had the same results... It rocked!

Don't have the magic box or that amp but it won't be long before someone who does answers.
Seriously - it takes like 5 minutes for them to flash it per anyone's (BT's I recommend to get to the 135 bin file) instructions posted in this forum - find another dealer - one of the service counter guys did mine for free and I threw him $20 for beer money as a thank you
PS - just check the file after the flash to make sure it did get properly flashed

BT has different recommendations, I chose the 2 speaker option and got the 128 off and 128 on files.

It worked well up to the 1.19 software, then I lost some of the bass, that's what started this whole mess for me and upgrading to the BT stuff.
And the old setup with the Kickers would go up to max volume with the amp set the way I had it.
Some music distorted a little bit depending on the recording , I use a iPod for the source.
