Subwoofer or saddlebag mid-bass: which suits your Harley?
This collection includes shallow and conventional subwoofers, powered and passive saddlebag kits, and Cicada mid-bass installation packages. Match the driver and enclosure to your saddlebag, and power it from a suitable low-pass amplifier channel unless the kit includes its own amplifier.
FAQ
Do I need a separate amplifier?
A passive subwoofer needs a suitable low-pass amplifier channel, which may be a mono amplifier, a bridgeable pair of channels or a dedicated subwoofer output, provided the impedance and power suit. A powered kit includes its own amplifier, but may still need power wiring, a signal source and remote or automatic turn-on.
Subwoofer or mid-bass?
A subwoofer adds the deepest low end, while a saddlebag mid-bass adds punch and impact in the upper bass. Many riders add mid-bass first; a subwoofer goes deepest where space allows.
Where does the subwoofer go?
Usually in a saddlebag as a kit or a purpose-built enclosure. Shallow-mount drivers suit tighter spaces. Confirm your saddlebag and mounting.
Will it fit my bike?
Kits are model specific, especially the saddlebag bundles for 2014 to 2023 and 2024 and newer bikes. Confirm your exact bike and audio package.
