All right everybody, stay tuned to see what we've got in this box. Maybe a couple ideas? All right, today we're going to be unboxing the brand new Soundstream V2 Radio. We've all been waiting for this thing. We finally got one of the pre-production units. You're wondering why it's in the white box? Well, that's why they haven't even printed boxes for this thing yet. So let's go ahead and open it up and I want to go over some of the great features this radio has that we've been really waiting for. Comes with our navigation antenna. This is a full native IGO navigation system just Comes with our harness. Comes with our Bluetooth microphone so we can do calls while we're riding down the road. And of course their boxes are always super snug to keep the product safe. All right, so the first thing you're going to notice is this screen is 8. 3 inch LCD with a thousand NIT brightness in the screen. It goes full side to side. None of the little patterns on the side anymore. This is full 8. 3 inch. This has got a wireless headset that works with the CENA, the Carto, and my preference the Lexin. So I just got a dual pack the other day for myself when we put this one of these in my bike. We're going to go ahead and pair this up so I can see just how well this works. Some of the great things about how the Bluetooth from the CENA, the Carto, the Lexin, your iPods, whatever, you can get multiple channels playing through. So either person can listen to navigation or music and one person can actually take a phone call right from your radio. No other radio has got this. It's got rally mode. Some of you guys If you got a thousand bikes, it'll play all thousand bikes. So when you and your crew roll into bike night, one guy plays a song and everybody else has got it. That's really amazing. You want to make a statement when your crew rolls in? That's where it's at. It's got on-screen speedometer. You will be the loudest in your block with this radio because it's got such a clean processing system in it. There is actually 5. 2 volts coming out of the RCA's that's going to help keep your amplifier from clipping. I always prefer to run RCA out whenever possible because that way I'm getting an unamplified signal going into my amplifier. Amplified signal going in just means you're going to get dirtier sound coming out. So we do have our two fronts, our two rears, and our two sub outputs. A couple other really neat features about this. It's got a USB-Cable on the back that you can run this into your glove box on your 2014 to 2023 street glide, electric glide, road glides. So you can continue to have the one you've got now for a th If your phone cord uses USB-C it plugs directly into that. So when you upgrade to this radio you're going to be the first guy on the block to have it, which hands down it's the favorite radio that I've seen yet come out for the Factory Hardly's. We've all seen the radios in the past from 2014. A little 4. 3 inch screen. They got a little bit better with their infotainment center. Super long load up time. Really terrible radio. All three of these have terrible sound quality in my opinion. The bat EQ curve in them. Even the GTS radio that came out in 2019 through 2023, it did have a bigger display on it. You could put some adapters on it, whether it be the Wim module or the CarPlay j But still the sound coming out of it was never really something I enjoyed listening to. Yes, you could flash the radio and get it a little bit better, but it was still nothing Plus you don't have the RCA capability on this. So if you want to try and get it as good as possible, now you're running through a line level converter on the output to get you to an RCA to coming into your amplifier. When you've got all that built right in with a cleaner processor and a cleaner signal EQ coming out of this radio right out of the box. And one of the really great things about this radio is it has fully licensed Android Auto and CarPlay. A couple other radios out there on the market don't have that. They're not fully licensed. So when you get this, no, it's going to work forever. All right, stay tuned. We're going to clean up the shop, bring a bike in and get this thing installed and show you just how it works. Well, wait, don't go anywhere until you I'll see
