Default Audio add on Roadking

added fairing and speaker lids, now adding amp and was wondering how much this will all pull on my battery? Is there anything I can do to help this? And should I add noise filter?

What kind of amp ??? A class D amp, will not be noticeable , so you need to do nothing.

If you have noise,....(which you shouldn't)..........you probably have a ground problem..

The only info I can find on a Teac 1000 is for a home receiver.

It also says it uses a class A/B power supply. I wouldn't recommend using that on a motorcycle.

Still doesn't change the fact that it will overrun the charging system. Ultra or King.
