Default Ok, I think I'm good to go now!

System of a Down, pretty good test for bass, phone is NOT doing bike justice.


Good country audio, full range of system,,,,


Couple of short videos I made, found my problems with my initial Line Leveler install, Bill and all whom I worked with at BT were awesome! After my initial trouble shooting steps, swapping things to make sure the problem moved Right to Left in the rear. Which it did, Bill sent me a new Line Leveler, but asked me to first please swap channels at the amp, to insure it wasn't a radio/amp problem. The problem still moved to the left side. Very dirty bass, just in general sounded bad. If you all remember my post,, how disappointed I was, I was VERY Pleased with my sound with the SNI 35s and the flash I had. But of course, had no Bass/Treble adjustment, or Fader.
When I got the new Rear LL I looked at the adjustment on the rear vs the new one. One of the adjustments was cranked WAY off the "Default" setting. Which give me very dirty bass. I never messed with them, so I didn't think it was necessary to check it. I feel stupid of course, and when I did look, the tape had messed up the writing on the back, so I couldn't tell until I held the new with my old. Then when I got the new one in,, it still sounded "Not great" I once again was like, damn,,, why doesn't it sound at LEAST as good as before? Had a rattle, thought maybe hardware in bag was loose, swapped channel, still sounded bad on the right side,, ok, now what? So I was looking after checking all hardware, emptied bag,, still sounded like a "Rattle" , low and behold,,, when lid was open,,with music playing, I noticed LIGHT shining through to the grill... right 5x7 Blown, 2 inch tear on rubber. BT replaced,, now it's in.


Oh, and for grins, I sealed my front pods with silicone,,, not sure how much it changed,, but it's supposed to tighten things up in there.
KUDOS to BT for the help,, as I said before,, figures it would happen to me,,, just my kind of luck!

Jim, sounds good! Volume stays pretty level even with the bass hits...dig it!

You should check out getting a set of the Hogtunes grilles, they'll match the grilles on your bags and make your inner fairing look good. Nice bike either way!

Yeah...I second that. I've been selling so many of them, then looking at my bike in the garage with 4 open spaces up front...wondering "Why did I change out the Arc's in the first place." After installing them in a few bikes running quality amps & BT levelers, my problem was the radio flash with the SS amp didn't do the 602s justice.
