The MB Quart Universal Overhead Audio System is a robust and versatile audio solution designed for off-road vehicles like UTVs. It integrates high-quality audio components into a durable, compact enclosure, making it suitable for challenging environments.

Function Description:

This system provides an all-in-one audio experience, delivering sound through multiple speakers and offering various input options. It's designed to be mounted overhead, typically on a vehicle's roll bar, to maximize sound dispersion and minimize space intrusion. The integrated dome light enhances utility by providing illumination inside the vehicle.

Important Technical Specifications:

The system features four 6.5-inch coaxial speakers. These speakers are constructed with a composite midrange for deep and accurate midbass, complemented by 0.75-inch titanium dome tweeters for crystal-clear high frequencies. The enclosure is made from High Impact HDPE Composite, ensuring durability and an ultra-compact design that takes up minimal space.

The system is available in three models, each designed to fit different roll bar dimensions:

MBQOH-33-1: Fits roll bar measurements between 37.25 inches and 58.25 inches.
MBQOH-41-1: Fits roll bar measurements between 44.25 inches and 61.25 inches.
MBQOH-46-1: Fits roll bar measurements between 49.25 inches and 66.25 inches.

Wiring:

The system requires a straightforward electrical connection:

Red wire: Connects to a constant +12 Volt source.
Orange wire: Connects to a switched +12 Volt source (accessory).
Black wire: Connects to chassis ground.
Blue wire: Connects to an optional amplifier REM (remote) trigger.

Usage Features:

The MB Quart Universal Overhead Audio System offers several user-friendly features:

Integrated Touch Controlled Dome Light: An LED dome light provides necessary illumination inside your UTV, controlled by a touch interface.
Bluetooth Connectivity: The system supports Bluetooth for wireless audio streaming from compatible devices, indicated by a "BLUETOOTH" display on the unit.
FM Radio: The system includes an FM radio tuner, allowing access to local radio stations, with frequency display (e.g., "FM RADIO FR1107.5").
Universal Fitment: The adjustable bracket system allows for installation on a wide range of roll cages with varying inside roll bar dimensions.

Installation Features:

Installation is designed to be flexible and secure:

Bracket Installation: The system uses either short or long brackets that attach to the back of the sound bar with 5/16-inch bolts and lock washers. These bolts should be left loose initially to allow for bracket movement during installation.
Adjustable Brackets: The brackets can slide to accommodate different roll cage widths. Once the proper width is established, the bolts should be retightened to a torque specification of 40-45 inch/lbs.
Clamp Option: The system includes various clamps to fit different roll bar profiles:
- A - 1.5" Diameter
- B - 1.75" Diameter
- C - 2" Diameter
- D - Profile Tube These clamps attach to the flat bracket with a 5/16-inch bolt, lock washer, and nut, securing the sound bar to the vehicle's ROPS (Roll-Over Protection Structure).

Maintenance Features:

While specific maintenance features are not detailed, the robust construction with High Impact HDPE Composite suggests a design intended for durability and resistance to environmental factors common in UTV use. The system is designed and engineered in the USA by Maxxsonics, indicating a focus on quality and performance.
