    Default New Spyder Owner

    Got a 2016 RT limited. Rear speakers silent. I found help in the forum that I will try in the morning. Now knowing that the rear audio control only works with earphones, where is the earphone plug receptacle?

    After years of two wheel riding, I am adjusting to three. This site is most helpful.

    Not true with the head phone comment...no sir.

    Try the audio control for speaker fade...front versus back and make sure there is some set to the rear. If that doesn't work, try popping of the speaker box and seeing if it's a simple plug not connected to either side. Being a 2016, it has to be the fade control...it's too new

    We have a 14 rt
    No audio outlet.
    I use a Bluetooth setup with fm output.
    My smartphone connects to bluetooth via Bluetooth. Then my radio connects to device by fm.

    Play all music off phone.

    If i wanted i could use earphone off phone or Bluetooth device.

    Rear control volume only works if you have deluxe entertainment package with cb & intercom


    I love R&R put another dime in the jukebox baby!

    Default Welcome.....



    I found on mine (2016 RT-S) that the rear speakers have a lower volume then the front until you get moving. Then the auto volume increases the output to the rear.
