John,
I have recently had problems with my amp just shutting off if I turn up the volume over half way. What is strange is if I turn off the ignition and turn it back on, it works again. Just shutting off and on the stereo does nothing, I have to turn the ignition off. I have had this amp and speakers setup on my 2010 Ultra since May with no problems at all till just recently. In fact, I just got back from a 3500 mile trip and this never happened once. Your tech support and Shawn at Dr VTwin recommended moving the ground and I have done that but it still seems to have that problem. Can I contact you directly to discuss this? I have emailed you but have not received any response yet. Please PM me or send me an email at buckhunter91870@gmail.com with your contact info.
Thanks,
Scott

AegisII ,,,,,
very sorry that you are having problems ,,,,,,,
can you tell me exactly where you grounded the amplifier ? ,,,,,,,,
also ,,, when you have the seat off, pull the fuse out of the main power wire to the amp and inspect the fuse holder contacts spades down inside and see if you see any problems or if the fuse is loose in the holder with cap ,,,,
I will help you figure this out ,,,,,

John thanks,
I have purchased many things from you through the years.
I started buying your products when I first bought my 1990 E glide classic, four bikes later I just put the Rokker system on my 08. I like it.
As per instructions;
I ground the main wire on the rear ground post just to the rear of the tank under the seat. two posts appear to be where the grounds attach, I removed the nut and put the ring on top of the other two wires on that post and retightened.
I will check the fuse contacts tomorrow.
Thanks again

I purchased the standard 7.25 speakers by mistake. I thought I was buying the rockers but that was not what I got. I did get the 250W amp and it was a rocker. I love the sound and it even sounds great at 70 MPH. I too was having problem with the amp losing power when I started the bike but I had the ground wire on the battery. I changed it to the frame and so far it has not cut off yet. Still I think the system sound great. Maybe I don't know what a good system sounds like but I happy.

Checked all items in post 220, checked amp main fuse connection, checked ground, it is on the frame post that also serves the battery ground, checked avc, it is turned off, checked intercom it is turned off. I am thinking it over heated? I hope this will not be ongoing.
I will ride it again and test it out.

Well I thought I had the problem fixed but it is still doing it. I moved the ground to the frame and wraped a wire tie on the fuse holder checked all the connections still it wont power up when starting the engine. Turn the engine off and back on it will work and keep working during the ride. Hope J&M can find the problem.

John,
I have installed 2 complete kits of your 7.25" speakers including your Amp for two of my customers in my country and this was after promoting your pruducts by my self as I kept reading good reviews in this forum. Sorry to say this but the sound quality was not really to the expectation in both bikes !! but they are loud enough. I know we have to be realistic but for the amount of money invested, we did not get the return !!
now im planning to get a complete system for my own bike and really dunno whether to take the risk with your rokker apeakers !!
