Default question for ultranutz

I'm interested in the same head unit you have. I've read the specs and they don't say if you can listen to music using Bluetooth. It says USB connectivity. I found that HU on sale online and just wanted a little info before pulling the trigger. Also how did it fit into the stock opening. Did you have to get a plate to make it fit?

I have an 08 Streetglide. and am looking at the same amp you have. I've just started looking and researching speakers.

I got the ok to spend some dough on the system so I really want to get top of the line components.

Thanks, Jeremy

I haven't tried it to be honest. I'll play with it this weekend since I'll be around finally. If you're referring to streaming music from a device to the headunit, yes it does that.

yes it has USB connectivity but only 1 port. I'm using mine for my iPod.

yes sir you'll need a mounting kit for it. Since my inner fairing is painted vivid black, I chose to replace my existing Biketronics kit with the vtwin audio gloss black kit. Looks really good against a painted inner fairing.

assuming you realize this amp won't fit anywhere on a street glide but in a saddlebag. Too big to go anywhere else.

if you want top of the line speakers, look to the Focal KRC or higher series or the Hybrid Audio Legatia series or higher speakers. They're not cheap by any means but they are what I would consider the best there is out there.
