Havoc Motorcycles and Aquatic AV- ' ROAR ' Road King Stereo EcoSystem
Prince Edward Island, Canada based Havoc Motorcycles and Aquatic AV have collaborated to answer what they say is the primary complaint of Road King and Softail owners regarding audio options- " how do I get high wattage highway sound without a fairing?" To solve that problem, Havoc and Aquatic AV say they have precision-engineered an audio ecosystem designed specifically for un-faired Harleys. Born from Havoc ' s background as a boutique manufacturer and refined through their partnership with waterproof-audio giants Aquatic AV, the " Havoc Roar Stereo "( HRS) systems are an architectural upgrade that places an Aquatic AV gauge stereo right up on the Road King nacelle cap, or Softail handlebar clamp. Featuring the same internals as their " wildly popular batwing and sharknose head units they are positioned where riders can see the display and control the sound."
Billet Engineering: Form Meets Function
The stereo pod and speaker pods( 3.5 " for the handlebars and 6.5 " for the highway bars) are CNCmachined from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, available in show chrome or black powder coated finishes. The design feels OEM: " the radius of the components, the symmetry of the classic design line down the side, all match factory geometry so
" Form meets function: The 6.5 " highway bar pods provide massive front-stage audio while maintaining the naked silhouette and classic lines of the Road King."
" The full 6-speaker ' Surround ' ecosystem, showcasing the partnership between Havoc ' s CNC-machined billet housings and Aquatic AV electronics."

perfectly it looks like it was always part of the bike," says the team at Havoc " When you ' re riding an un-faired bike at 70 mph, you ' re fighting acoustic smear from wind, exhaust, and vibration. Our rigid, machined housings eliminate the flex that kills sound quality, and they enable the use of Aquatic AV ' s Harley-specific speakers with their big wattage amps." The HRS components combine to enable a suite of scaled power configurations: The Sport( 2-Speaker): Ranging from 144W to 480W using either 3.5 " handlebar pods, 6.5 " highway bar pods, or saddlebag speakers. The Immersive( 4-Speaker): Combinations of four speakers ranging from 444W to 960W.
The Surround( 6-Speaker): " Where restraint goes to die," delivering a staggering 1,100 Watts of concert-grade power using Aquatic AV ' s newest 1,200-watt amplifier, via handlebar pods, highway bar pods, and saddlebag lids.
The Roadlock Advantage
Under the hood, the system utilizes 100 % Aquatic AV ' s legendary waterproof components- head units, speakers, and amplifiers. To house the massive power required for highway speeds, Havoc developed the Roadlock saddlebag amplifier bracket( for Road King and OEM Softail bags). This uses the bike ' s existing saddlebag mounting hardware to securely host Aquatic AV ' s 300W, 600W, or 1200W amplifiers inside the bag. " We wanted a solution that felt factory. The Roadlock uses the saddlebag mounting points for a rock-solid fit. When paired with our wiring harnesses, it turns a highoutput installation into a clean, straightforward process."
