Default Help on system setup
trying to decide on how to run everything I’ve ordered for my 2015 Street Glide. I have a Sony XAV-AX100 head unit. I have hertz sv 165.1’s and dd audio vo b3 horns for the fairing. Will have hertz 200.1’s and dd b3 horns for my twisted 8 lids. Looking to run the fairing on a diamond 4v2 and the lids on a SounDigital 800.4 4 ohm. Was thinking of bridging the fairing speakers and horns on the 4v2 and bridging the 200.1’s and horns on the 800.4 or is there a better way? Thanks in advance

you need an adjustable crossover or DSP to run the SD amp to any of those speakers. I also would never bridge horns on with 6.5's. You'll fry them.

I thought that’s what the crossover/bass blocker did on the back of the horn. Restricted the amount of power sent to them as well as allowing only a certain frequency to play or am I incorrect?

the capacitor is just a passive crossover. Your 6.5's can take significantly more power then you horns.

Default Where do I buy MMATS?
Haze,
I'm looking to do a MMATS set up in a 2018 RGS. This will not be for competition use but I want it to sound REALLY good. I want to run 601s with DD B3 horns (or MMATS horns if they are comparable) in the fairing and a DT 10 in each bag. I also plan on running a DSP but know which is better, the Arc PSM or the RF DSR-1. Are rear speakers needed to provide highs in the rear or can i get by w/out them? Thinking about running 2 MMATS D4100s. Problem is i have no idea where to buy MMATS. I live in Columbia SC

I'm completely open to any suggestions or advice you have.
Thank you in advance

Check out Badd Azz Bikes in Temple Texas. They sell MMats audio. Anthony and Cameron both helped me out when I ordered

Just wanted to thank you as well haze. Ditched the SounDigital and went with 2 diamond 4v2 amps. Won’t have to mess with the DSp now.

I have not. I really havent heard a system on a Harley other than front 6.5 with bag 6x9. Harley stereo is not big here in Columbia SC.
I have only heard YouTube videos
Is this not a good set up?
