Speaker Icon...Dumb Question???

I don't know if it is me, but I just finished installing some new tweeters on the bike and I noticed a speaker icon on the radio faceplate that I had not noticed before. It seems to come and go at first, but now it is on when the CD player is playing. BTW this is the factory HK radio on my 08 Street Glide.

I looked in the MOM to see what the icon means and found nothing.

Am I going crazy? Has it always been there and now I am paranoid and seeing it for the first time?

Any insight would be appreciated.

Mine has it. I think it means your external speakers are on.

OK, your not nuts....please tell of the upgrade. Where did you buy/install the tweeters and what are your impressions?

Thank you Gtsdesigns. I knew one of the stereo experts would put an end to this mystery of mysteries.

Here is the writeup I did. I got the tweeters at a local audio shop. They were part of a Alpine speaker component set that they had accidently ordered and they were trying to unload it. I got the tweeters and the crossovers for $80. So seemed to be a good deal. It worked out well because the angled design of the surface mount works better than a normal flat mounting surface mount I have seen with most other tweeters, in my opinion.
