Rockford Fosgate launched new Harley-Davidson audio systems that include the first aftermarket motorcycle amplifier with a built-in A2B digital interface. This allows aftermarket amplifiers to be compatible with newer Harley motorcycles.
The new Rockford systems work with select 2023.5 and newer Harley motorcycles equipped with the Skyline OS infotainment system.
The kits include the TMA 1000-watt digital amplifier, designed for direct A2B interface with Skyline OS. This integration removes the need for radio flashing. The amplifier features Bluetooth connectivity for DSP tuning and allows for system expansion.

A new cutting template with parallel ribbing assists with installation for a factory-like fit. All speakers are rated as Element Ready; built to withstand water, vibration, dirt, and dust.
