Features

For Harley-Davidson Motorcycles: The AQ-MP-5BT-H Harley-Davidson Stereo from Aquatic AV is designed and built as an upgrade or replacement stereo for Harley-Davidson Motorcycles (1998-2013 models). It uses the existing Harley-Davidson factory stereo mounting bracket and wiring connections (no additional kit or wiring harness needed). It even retains the motorcyle's handle-bar controls.

Marine Certified: The Aquatic AV AQ-MP-5BT-H is a high quality, robust and durable waterproof digital media receiver. It is waterproof (IP55 rated), UV protected (ASTM D4329 compliant), and salt-fog resistant (ASTM B117 compliant). Its front-panel is made of ABS, while the chassis is ZAM coated and the PCB is conformal coated.

Detachable Front-Panel: The AQ-MP-5BT-H features a detachable front-panel which you can take with you when the Aquatic AV receiver is not in use. You can purchase the AQ-MP-5DF protective faceplate/dust cover (sold separately) to protect the receiver when the front-panel is detached (there is no protective case for the detachable front-panel).

Mobile Device Compartment: Behind the detachable front-panel is a mobile device compartment where you can store your smartphone and keep it protected. The mobile device compartment features a male 3.5mm aux input and a female USB (type-A) charging port. You can connect your smartphone to the AQ-MP-5BT-H via Bluetooth while your device is stored in the hidden compartment. The compartment measures 5.5" (w) x 1.0" (h) x 6.5" (d). It will fit up to the iPhone 8 or Samsung Galaxy S8; it can even fit two smartphone devices at the same time.

Bluetooth Audio Streaming: The AQ-MP-5BT-H features built-in Bluetooth A2DP/AVRCP for wireless audio playback and control of your Bluetooth-enabled source device, such as your smartphone or tablet (only one device can be paired). You'll be able to wirelessly stream audio from stored music, music apps, and other audio content from your Bluetooth source device to the Aquatic AV receiver. You'll also be able to control Play/Pause, Fast Forward/Rewind, Previous/Next Track, and Volume Up/Down from the receiver's front-panel. The unit will even display song/artist/album information (no album art).

Dual Aux Inputs: The AQ-MP-5BT-H offers two auxiliary inputs. There is a male 3.5mm jack inside the receiver's mobile device compartment (behind the detachable face-plate) to connect your device's headphone jack for music playback. There is also a female stereo RCA input on the rear-chassis for connection of a second external audio source.

AM/FM Tuner: The AQ-MP-5BT-H is equipped with a built-in AM/FM tuner with manual, seek, and preset tuning. You can store up to 18 FM presets and 12 AM presets for a total of 30 tuner presets. You can select between US or European tuning. For best FM/AM performance make sure your motorcycle's antenna is extended to the highest possible position.

USB Charging Port: Inside the AQ-MP-5BT-H's mobile device compartment is a female USB (type-A) port for charging your USB-enabled device, such as your smartphone or digital audio player. The charging port is rated at 5V/1A.

Built-in 4Ch Amplifier: The AQ-MP-5BT-H features an onboard 4ch Class A/B amplifier that is 2-ohm stable and capable of powering up to 8 speakers, or a combination of speakers and subwoofers.

• 4-Ohm Rating: 24 watts (RMS) x 4ch / 45 watts (Peak) x 4ch
• 2-Ohm Rating: 35 watts (RMS) x 4ch / 72 watts (Peak) x 4ch

2V/2Ch RCA Output: The AQ-MP-5BT-H is outfitted with a 2V/2CH RCA output for the connection of an external amplifier to power additional speakers and subwoofers.

Audio Settings: You can choose from 8 EQ Presets - Flat, Rock, Pop, Dance, Classic, Jazz, Vocal and User. The User mode allows you to manually adjust the receiver's Bass & Treble. The unit also has balance and fader control. In addition there is an XBS feature which further enhances bass output. A beep tone is heard when your press a button (this feature can be turned on or off).

LCD Screen: The front-panel 3" LCD screen lets you view song/artist/album information (not album art) from a Bluetooth source device, as well as AM/FM station numbers, source inputs, volume level, and menu selections. The LCD screen will also display the time. In addition, you can brighten or dim the display.

Rear Speaker Harness: Rear speakers are usually installed on the following Harley-Davidson Motorcycle models - Electra Glide Ultra Classic, Road Glide Ultra, and Ultra Limited. To continue using these speakers with the Aquatic AV receiver, you will need to hardwire the rear speaker harness of the AQ-MP-5BT-H to the rear speaker connections of the motorcycle's factory radio harness (see User/Installation Manual for detailed instructions).

Optional Wired Remote: The AQ-WR-5F waterproof wired remote control (sold separately) allows for 2-way communication with AQ-MP-5BT-H, so you can control the Aquatic AV receiver remotely while viewing song, track and other system information on the remote's back-lit LCD screen. This waterproof wired remote control mounts flush onto a flat surface and requires an extension cable (such as the AQ-EXT-24, sold separately).
