Hogtunes REV 200-AA : 2 Channel Class D Amplifier / 2x100 watts (1998 - 2013 - model years) User Manual
Page 2
Thank you for choosing the Hogtunes REV 200-AA Amplifier for 1998-2013
Model Bikes. 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.
The REV 200-AA Amplifier is a Class D design. We chose this design because
it yields plenty of power, is easy on the bike’s charging system and produces
little heat. It should be understood that ALL Class D amplifiers may cause a
reduction in FM reception. Nothing is affected when playing CD, MP3,
Satellite radio or any other music device. FM reception will differ and depend
on the condition and type of antenna that you are using and, although every
effort has been made to minimize any loss, we strongly advise against the use
of in-fairing or hidden antennas with Class D amplifiers for best FM reception.
To help protect your bike’s electrical system and battery, the amp has a built in
feature where it will turn itself off if it sees less than 10.5 volts whether the bike
is running or not. If you’re listening to your stereo while not riding, this feature
can help protect your battery so the bike can still start. If you’re riding and the
amp shuts off, this could be showing a potential issue with your charging
system. If this feature is activated and the amp shuts off, it will turn the amp
back on again if the voltage exceeds the 10.5 volt threshold.
The REV 200-AA is rated for 100 watts per channel using 2 ohm speakers
at 14.4volts at 1% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). Although this amplifier
makes its highest power with 2 ohm speakers, if Hogtunes 5.75 ohm speakers
or 4 ohm car speakers are used there will still be a noticeable improvement
in volume and sound quality.
If you are not using Hogtunes speakers, chances are the speaker connectors
are not the same as stock. If you need to change connectors, please note that
on all Hogtunes products, the smaller connector (black wire) is positive (+).
