Default Line Leveler question

I am looking to buy the line leveler for my 15 Ultra. I am doing an amp and all 4 speakers. What connection or setup do I need? 1) front speaker connector 2) In-fairing rear speaker connector or 3) Universal connector? Says I have to select one. Also it says for product info, note, "Ultra models do not have rear speaker connector in the fairing for plugging in rear speakers, please see the breakout connector for Ultras." When I click on it, its a whole kit which has 2 line levers and it's $269 for the kit. Is that what I am going to need for my Ultra? Thanks for all the help.

Im guessing you are looking at Biketronics. I've never used any of their line levelers personally, but it would probably be worth a quick call to then I'm the morning to make sure you get the right stuff.

If you are interested in keeping the fade control option, you will want the Breakout Harness that comes with 2 line levelers.

If fade is not important to you, 1 Front line leveler will get the job done. Depending on which amp you choose, in lieu of 2nd line leveler, you will use RCA "y" cords to split signal to the rear amp channels.

You are correct! I had someone that gave me the same answer as u. So yeah I just ended up ordering 1 line leveler and I'm not to concerned about fading. But thank you for your response.

For $270 a DSR1 sound processor might be a better option. It would be a little more, but would give much more control over the tune.

Also keep in mind that the Dayton Audio 408 DSP is getting great reviews and can be had for $150 at Parts Express. It's bigger than the LL and ARC PSM but still pretty compact thus should fit under the hood for many build strategies.

Lots of options.

I'm pulling out the Boom crap and installing the following:
Stinger 700.4 amp
MMATTS 601 CX (2)
MMATTS 690cx (2) with V-twin adapters. I'm trying to figure out what I'll need to connect it all. BT LL or Dayton 408. I have an '18 RG CVO
