How’s it going Full Throttle readers! Keigan here again. I hope everyone has had an awesome start to the riding season. I want to start off with thanking everyone that came out to our Season Opening event at the dealership. We had an awesome turn out and gave away some cool prizes. Unfortunately, the grand prizes did go to anyone in our area, it was still a good event and the turn out was awesome. This month I wanted to talk about the kind of new, Harley Davidson Audio Powered by RockFord Fosgate. In the past the stereo systems coming from Harley Davidson have been lackluster, but the new Rockford Fosgate powered by Harley Davidson, is definitely something to talk about. So, if you’re in the market for a new system this article is for you. So, let’s get into it!
In 2022 Harley Davidson announced they were pairing up with Rockford Fosgate to bring everyone a new and improved audio system. Until this announcement Harley had the Boom Audio system that had a lot of issues. The sound quality just wasn’t there for the price the customer was paying. So, Harley decided it was time for a change and in doing so they brought to market the highest performing, most advanced audio system riders have ever experienced. You get legendary sound from two legendary brands.
Let’s start with the new 4 channel amplifier by Harley Davidson powered by Rockford Fosgate. This new amplifier comes packed with features such as M-DEQ, Full Range Class-D Technology, and Computer Controlled Digital Signal Processing. Don’t worry, I’m going to tell you what all of those features are and do for your audio system. M-DEQ, is Harley Davidson’s smart amplifier technology. What this allows the amplifier to do is tune the EQ points on the system in real time. This means while you’re riding, the system is learning your riding habits so it can tune the EQ points for every riding situation you may encounter. This will make sure you have incredible sound no matter the riding speed or conditions. The smart technology on this amplifier doesn’t stop there. The amplifier also comes with Computer Controlled Digital Signal Processing. This means no mater what Harley Davidson Powered by Rockford Fosgate speakers you have in your bike, stage 1 or stage 2, your amplifier adapts to the speakers. So, if you currently have stage 1 speakers, the amplifier will adjust and smart tune to stage 2 speakers when you decide to make the upgrade. The amplifier is also a 4-channel amplifier which means each amplifier can power up to 4 speakers. One of the nicest features to these new Harley Davidson Powered by Rockford Fosgate is the Full range Class D Technology. What this means is that the amplifier has more power and less electrical fatigue. These amplifiers produce maximum power without over drawing from the motorcycle.
Next thing I want to get into is the meat and potatoes of the system and that’s the speakers themselves. The Harley Davidson Powered by Rockford Fosgate, has 2
