Re: UTV stereo's help

I am picking up my rzr in about a month and I plan to put a stereo in it.  I got a price on a cheap marine stereo (Pyle) with 4 marine speakers.  I am thinking cheap so when I power wash it and ruin it I won't be to upset over it.  What are others doing?  Will I be fine as far as power drain goes?  Mounting pointer?  Subs?

Re: UTV stereo's help

I used a small 30 watt amp from Sonic in mine. I use my Ipod with it due to no stereo bullet proof to jumping and offroad. Rewire computer (moisture resistant) speakers from radio shack. I am going to install Ipod earbud jacks on the dash so you can hear over the engine.


Are we camping yet?

Re: UTV stereo's help

In my Rhino....

I bought a 4 Channel 200W amp and I mounted it in the glove box.  Its not Marine grade, but I am just careful when I wash down the Rhino.  The glove box is pretty waterproof as it is, unless your mud bogging which could cause some issues.

For speakers, I am running some 6.5" Kicker Speakers in wakeboard tower tubes mounted on the back of my cage.  I got these from Liquid Audio on ebay.  I have 2" dome tweeters monted on the cage above the driver and passengers head.

I run it from an ipod.  It works really well.  I have the gain on the amp turned all the way down and its more volume than I can ever take.  Let me know if you have any questions.

Re: UTV stereo's help

Just keeping everyone informed with what I decided on.  I got a clarion (cmd5) head unit that I hear is one of the few "true" waterproof stereo’s.  They say it can handle up to 10 gallons a minute of water flow.  I also decided to go with liquid audio "wake board tower" speakers that I hear are also very water tight.

Re: UTV stereo's help

Looks good! Are the speakers mounted to a specific bar for speakers? Looks like they mount to the Lock n ride system? Rear view? Thanks for posting pics.

Re: UTV stereo's help

They are just the Polaris lock n ride rear accessory rack with wake board tower speakers on them.  I will get some pics as soon as I get it back from the dealership
