I recently installed the ax7000 and I love it. However, i have found that i have to turn it up to 30 or more while cruising at 75. Anyone else having this issue or am I missing a setting?

Need more info. What amp, speakers, what volume did you set your gain at, etc?
I think you're pretty safe up until about 45. So no, 30 is not out of the norm. Actually surprised the stock speakers can even take that. So be careful!

Yeah I'd like to see what volume those go to before the head unit distorts. I have the 5000 and mine is clean on a DD1 until 44. I bet those stock speakers are about to go up in smoke pretty soon.
So you running the Sony 7000 with stock speakers in the fairing? Can you hear the music clearly on the highway? Are you going to go with after market speakers?

Ive had the 7000 for about 4 months now. I had it on the R&B equalizer settings and it would start to distort between 30-35 making it difficult to hear at highway speeds. I saw on another thread that someone had theirs tuned and they posted this picture of the settings. I just set mine up this way and I think I can get more volume out of it before distortion. That should be enough to get descent tunes on the highway (stock exhaust). Havent been able to test it on the road yet.
