Weather the weather
Do you have a motorcycle or an ATV without a way to hear your favorite tunes, or a boat that needs accompaniment? Do you want the music to keep playing whatever the weather? The MC450 audio system from Boss can satisfy your needs.

Ready for anything
The MC450 system boasts four 3” speakers in streamlined chromed plastic pods, with adjustable brackets that attach to a handlebar or rail, all powered by a compact 4-channel amp. Connect your media player to the system's 1/8" or RCA input jacks and the system's 1000 watts of power will rock the outdoors. Wherever you go, the MC450 can handle the conditions and pump out the tunes.

Features
Amplifier Inputs: The amp has two inputs; RCA and mini-jack. Both are live simultaneously, so if both are connected, selection must be made by turning one source off.
Note: If both sources connected to the line inputs (RCA and 3.5mm) are turned on, it's likely you'll hear static through the speakers in addition to music, even if one is muted or paused.
Speaker Mounting: The speakers are designed to mount to a round tube using the adjustable stainless steel clamps. Six different spacer sizes are included for use with tubes from 5/8" to 1-1/2" (approximately). Once the speakers are in place, but before the brackets are tightened, you can adjust the mounting angle. After mounting, the speakers can still swivel almost 360°.
Wiring: All the wiring is fixed length and already attached to the speakers and amplifier. Each speaker has a 37" input wire attached and the wires from all four speakers are attached to a single Molex plug. The speaker output wires and the power and ground wires attached to the amplifier are routed together for 18" in a nylon sleeve. Three inches from the sleeve, the speaker wires are attached to a Molex plug (which connects to the plug attached to the speaker wires). The power and ground wires extend 6-1/2' beyond the sleeve with a 10 amp fuse in-line with the power wire.
Volume: The rotary volume control has a 76" cable attached that plugs into the amp and mounts in a round hole in a panel, 0.27" diameter.

Great product. Have them installed on my motorcycle and they sound awesome. Need an equalizer to fine tune the sound a bit at higher volumes but overall worth the investment.
