I had a credit to use up, so I ordered a Sony 5000 head unit. I guess im a bit fuzzy on what I dont need to use now. I have 2 line levelers and the breakout harness with my current system.

I no longer need LLs with new Sony correct? What about the breakout harness? I have no expierence with anything but stock 6.5 HU. I would still want to fade the TP.

I currently have a JLXD600/6 with AA602s bridged in fairing and Polk652s in TP. My Prv Neos and JL280/4 came today and will be adding them in lowers once i get the parts to make them work. I will be using channels 5/6 on 600/6 for lowers and the new 280/4 to the TP polks.


thanks

 

 

Additionally you'll want to run your own speaker wires back to the tp.

 

I had already did that. My very first setup with different amp/speaks..i used the factory wiring. But currently have all dedicated speaker wires to all 4 speakers. I will just need to wire 2nd amp to battery,etc.

 

you are going to need one if the install kits that comes with the modules to retain your handlebar controls, Metra/Access, Biketronics and Scoshe all make one, i just used the metra install kit last moth an a Sony install and it worked just fine,,,,i think it was 95-9700.

If you don't mind me asking, where are you planning on mounting your second amp? I already did the Sony, have lids, but would also like to do lowers and have an 8 speaker setup.

 

As suggested to me, I plan is to mount the JL280/4 vertically on my Bt speaker bracket. Clutch side. I did see pics of someone that had it horizontally in front, tight to back of radio .

 

You're gonna love that deck and the XD600. Word has it a new firmware (the first update) should add some boss stuff. Even without a dedicated x-over you'll do really well. But I'd consider an x-over down the road to really max it out.

 

im excited to install it. Radio, mx280/4, prvs, all arrived the other day. Once i get the hogtunes lowers...ill do it all at once

 

Mike, I'll be in there Friday afternoon. I am gonna hit my old neighborhood first and see how much that has changed. I grew up at 55th and Broadway. Not a great area now.
