Have Sony radio, SS amp, and mm651's installed on bike. Started on wiring. Do I just plug RCA jacks in from Sony head were the gain controls are and then speakers are connected to the terminal block on the same side as the power, ground, and remote are? Are the high level inputs connectors not used in my setup?
Where did you install crossovers for rear pods? Waiting on speaker grills to install these.
Thanks
Tim

I'm glad that you edited your post because it now makes more sense and is correct. Yes, since you have RCA connectors, you don't use the Hi-level inputs.
I installed the crossovers for the Polk speakers that I installed in the speaker pods of my Ultra in the tourpak and drilled a 3/8" hole through the tourpak liner & tourpak into the pod (has to be large enough for the wiring connectors to pass through it).
The crossovers are held in place against the tourpak liner with velcro (the aggressive/stiff side of the velcro will attach to the tourpak liner). I fed all of the extra wire into each pod and zip-tied it in a neat bundle.

Tim, I did mine slightly different than WTR in respect to the rear crossovers. I really wish POLK would redesign the crossover to be about an inch shorter so they would fit inside the tourpak pods. Nonetheless if you lift up the passenger backrest pad flap I mounted mine there. Here's a pic for you.. Any slack left in the wiring, did the same thing WTR did in dragging it into the tourpak pod and tie wrapping it out and out of the way.
Make sure to wrap those fairing speakers with polyfil and line the tourpak pods with polyfil.
