Thank you for choosing the Hogtunes Model 5x7REV/RG front speaker and 

amp kit for Road Glides. Since positive word of mouth is the best way to 

grow our business, we want your new system to work as well as it was  

designed to. If you have any questions or concerns, we are here to help.  

Adjusting Your System--Please Read!

In order to make your new system perform as good as it was designed, 

please take a minute to understand and follow these tips:

1)    Set your “Automatic Volume Control” (AVC) to 3 bars. After extensive on 

road testing, we found that this AVC position works and sounds best. Your 

new amplifier has been specifically set-up for this radio setting.

2)   Your Hogtunes system is designed specifically for a motorcycle at speed. 

Exhaust noise and wind noise have been taken into careful consideration 

in how your system performs. How your new system sounds in a driveway 

or garage is radically different from how it will sound at highway speeds. 

Although your system was set-up with a factory radio with its bass and 

treble controls in the middle position, if you feel the need to make  

adjustments, please do so (carefully) at your normal cruising speed.

3)   If you have an aftermarket car radio on your bike, everything will work 

fine, but please remember that car radios are designed to work in an 

environment with little or no exhaust or wind noise. Many car radios have 

“features” such as equalizers, loudness contours, surround effects, etc., all 

designed for a quiet environment, and all of which will hurt your ability to 

hear your motorcycle system at speed if left on. Please take a minute and 

turn as much of these “features” off. With a car radio in your bike, the 

only adjustments you should be able to access for best performance are 

volume, bass, treble, balance, and fader.

4)   If you’re using an external device to supply music through the radios  

aux port, we have an article on our website that can help make your 

peripheral audio device sound as good as it can. The article is at:
