If you are in the Raleigh area, the staff at Adrenaline Autosound in Clayton are your experts in the design and installation of premium motorcycle audio systems. Unfortunately, the entertainment systems found on most motorcycles suffer from limited power and mediocre speakers. When we design an audio system upgrade, we address these shortcomings to ensure the system will perform impressively at high volume levels and sound great. Let’s look at how we achieve these objectives.
Motorcycle Audio Systems Need Power
It takes power to do work. Just as climbing a steep hill while towing a heavy trailer puts huge demands on a truck engine, so too does reproducing music at high volume levels. The limiting factor in attaining realistic volume levels on a motorcycle is the power available from the radio. Most radios only provide 20 watts of power – simply not enough.
When we design motorcycle audio systems, the first thing we choose is a new amplifier. Even the most compact of aftermarket amplifiers offers an impressive 50 watts per channel. This extra power allows you to turn up the volume without producing speaker-damaging distortion.
Better Speakers Improve Quality and Volume
Once you have more power, the next logical upgrade is a new set of speakers. Premium speakers offer three performance improvements: less distortion, more output capability and increased power handling. Larger voice coils and magnets allow premium speakers to handle more power. Improved suspension designs let high-quality speakers play louder than factory-installed or inexpensive products. Finally, attention to detail in geometry and material selection reduces distortion to make your music clearer and more detailed. Once you have the power to drive them, a new set of speakers will transform the way your music sounds, and allow you to crank up the volume without fear of damage.
Expert Installation and Configuration
The most-often overlooked aspect of any audio system upgrade is the quality of the installation. Where and how we mount equipment affects not only performance but reliability as well. Our team is well-known for our easily serviceable installations. We use factory fastener locations whenever possible and create custom mounting brackets for amplifiers and processors to ensure everything is solid and secure. We solder all of our electrical connections, then protect them with premium heat-shrink tubing or high-quality vinyl electrical tape. Finally, we secure the wiring by bundling it with automotive-grade cloth tapes from companies like Tesa. In many installations, it’s difficult to discern which wiring is ours and which came from the factory.
The last step in achieving world-class performance is system configuration. From setting the sensitivity controls on a new amplifier to provide maximum performance to the configuration of signal processors to custom-tailor the sound of your entertainment system, our team has the tools and experience required to make the most of the products we install.
