Evolution D5 Soundbar BoostBox

Product Description

• Interested in a simple solution that makes your D5 soundbar play twice as clean, twice as loud, play in full Stereo (L & R) instead of just one Channel (L), fix the annoying whine coming from your soundbar, continue to play music while your D5 is in reverse, and requires just 5 minutes and screw driver to install? Good, because our D5 Soundbar Boost Box® does all of that!
• Featuring aptX Bluetooth technology, and a plug n play harness with factory Evolution connectors, Boost Box is simple yet substantial enhancement to the overall audio experience on your Evolution D5. And to make your investment in the Boost Box even more attractive, it plugs directly into our D5 100Watt and 600Watt Plug n Play sound systems as well so you can enjoy music from both your Soundbar, speakers and Stealth Sub all at the same time!

Key Features:

Soundbar Audio Quality. The quality of the audio you're hearing from your soundbar is little to be desired. You may not have noticed, you might have noticed right away, but we're audio nerds, so it was the first thing we figured out when we saw our first Evolution D5. Thankfully, the poor audio quality is not the soundbar's fault, it's the touchscreen's. Enter our Soundbar Boost Box®, with aptX HD Bluetooth technology, and full Stereo sound, our Boost Box allows the soundbar to play a much cleaner, crisper sound with a little more hint of bass from the mini subwoofers on the side. Even if you're not an audio nerd, we guarantee that you will notice a significant quality difference once you plug our boost box in. Soundbar Volume. You may have noticed that if you're driving down the road 25mph in your D5 and you're playing your soundbar full tilt boogie, that you can't really hear it that well. Our Boost Box solves that, pushing the soundbar to play twice as loud as it can from the factory (it would be bad for the soundbar to play twice as loud if it still had the same poor audio quality from the screen as it would be heavily distorted, and distortion blows speakers, but with the clean audio our boost box produces, the soundbar plays twice as loud like it was meant to). High Pitch Whine Removal. Some D5 soundbars produce a very annoying, loud pitch whine. We could write a book on why that is, but in short, the noise is due to the 48volt electrical system on the cart back feeding into the touchscreen, creating a whine through the soundbar. Our Boost Box fixes that thanks it's assembly and it's aptX bluetooth technology.

Continuous Playing. Out of the factory, the soundbar will stop playing music once you put your D5 in reverse. We respect this setting as it is a nice safety reminder letter you know that you're in reverse and not in drive. However, it drives most D5 owners mad. Our Boost Box does not shut off, so you can still continue enjoying your music even in rervse.

Stereo Audio. The D5 touchscreen only produces left channel audio, so the soundbar only plays the left channel as a result. Yes, all speakers on the soundbar play, but they're not playing left and right, which can make quite the difference in the overall audio experience. Our Boost Box plays in full stereo, so now you get to enjoy a full left and right sound out of your Soundbar.<p "="">Don't believe us? Listen to this video on your D5 without our boost box and then with! VIDEO Or listen to the song "A Day In The Life" by The Beatles. First listen to the first 60 seconds on your phone, then listen to it connected to your D5, you'll notice that you cannot hear Paul's voice when he starts singing because his voice is recorded on the right channel to start the song (and the right channel does not work on the factory D5 system)<p "="">Easy Function. Once installed, turn your cart on, connect your phone to the boost box via bluetooth, start playing your music app, and control your audio all through your phone. That easy, and after you connect your phone to the box once, it will automatically connect each time you turn your D5 on!
Plug N Play 5 Minute Install. We aren't joking. It takes 5 minutes to install. Remove 2 screws. Plug the box in. Done. Marine Grade Assembly & Wiring. The most important variable when it comes to powersports products and wiring. Is the equipment and wiring running that equipment ready to handle the environment, poor weather, abuse, all without shorting out. Our Boost Box, wiring, and connections are built for the weather and outdoor elements, so no worries here.Zero Wiring Skills Required. No need how to cut, crimp, strip or solder any wiring. If you know how to read instructions and plug a connector into another connector, you're more than qualified to install the boost box. Craftsmanship. We are perfectionist, audio enthusiasts, and golf cart enthusiasts, who have always been super picky about the products and businesses we vouch for. So when we had the opportunity to make a product of our own, we made sure the design and function would meet or exceed the expectations of a fellow perfectionist. Customer Service. Enough with this outsourcing customer service, virtual assistant, crap. We designed, developed and manufacture the boost box in house, so if you have questions or concerns about the product, you get to talk to us, who understands our product inside and out. Why bypass the touchscreen audio?! If the touchscreen produced quality audio signal and also produced stereo signal instead of only playing the left channel, we would have developed our plug n play products to use the D5 screen as the head unit, however, it doesn't, and we can't justify selling you quality, dealer grade audio equipment, capable of producing insanely clean/powerful audio for you to enjoy, but instead you hear poor audio quality because of the poor audio signal coming from the screen.<p "="">When it comes to audio quality, the head unit's audio signal output is just as important if not more important than the equipment. It's like a car and an engine. If you bought a Lamborghini and the dealership told you that they put a Toyota Prius motor inside of it, do you think your Lamborghini is going to perform like a super car? No. Well the same goes for audio equipment, you can assemble a sound system with most expensive amplifier, speakers and subwoofer in the world, but if you have a poor quality head unit with poor audio signal, then your audio quality is going to sound as good as the head unit, poor.

Want to upgrade your audio but don't want to sacrifice your radio?

• You may be thrilled that you can easily upgrade your D5 audio. But you might not love the idea of losing your FM Radio.
• Well, one quick solution is to download the Tune IN radio app or I Heart Radio app, both are 100% free and they allow you to listen to any FM radio station. Via the internet so you'll have zero connectivity issues!

BA PLUG N PLAY INTEGRATION

• Can't decide whether you want to just buy the boost box for now or splurge on our 600Watt Plug n Play Audio Options?
• Well thanks to our BA Plug N Play technology, our boost box, Speakers, and Stealth sub, all plug and play together. So you can quickly turn your 1 channel Soundbar system into a 5 or 6 channel system by plugging our boost box into our 600W PowerPlate, Stealth Sub and/or Speakers!

For example, if you have the boost box, and decide that you'd rather have audio throughout the entire cart instead of blowing your rear passengers ears off with your louder Soundbar, you can buy our 600W 4 Speaker Plug N Play System (D5600S) which includes the BA Powerplate, 600Watt Amp, 4 Hertz DCX 5" Speakers, and harness that will connect the PowerPlate, speakers and boost box all together!

• Another example. If you only have the Boost Box, or you have the Boost Box and 4 speaker package, and you're ready to add some real bass when jamming to your tunes, our D5 Stealth Sub® is the answer. If you only have the Boost Box, you can purchase the (D5600SS) which includes our PowerPlate, 600Watt Marine Amp, D5 Stealth Subwoofer, and plug n play harness, providing you with a marine fuse panel, killer bass, and plug n play install. However, if you already purchased the 600W 4 speaker system (D5600S) which includes everything listed above, then you can just purchase the Stealth Sub which will plug right into your PowerPlate.

Confused or have have questions regarding our BA Plug N Play Integration? We highly recommend reading our D5 Plug N Play Ordering Guide!

Touchscreen & Function Disclaimer:

• Our Soundbar Boost Box™ bypasses the touchscreen's audio output, so no audio will come from the touchscreen once the box is installed. It will still operate as a speedometer, odometer, back up camera, but to operate your sound system after the Boost Box is installed, you will connect to our Boost Box via bluetooth on your phone, and play music through your phone.
• The USB Charger will still work
• The microphone will no longer work

What Will Still Work On Touchscreen With BoostBox?

• Soundbar LED Controls
• Soundbar Master Volume
• Back up camera
• Speedometer
• Odometer
• All street legal lighting prompts (head lights, turn signals, etc)
• Everything but the radio, USB Audio, and phone microphone will remain working with BoostBox

Ordering Tips:

• Read our Ordering Advice PDF.

If you know that you want the plug n play speakers and/or Stealth Sub now, then go back one page and select either one of those systems (Or select the D5 Party On Wheels Package which includes both the speakers and stealth sub), as all three of those options include the Boost Box (You can add the XK Glow LED Package to any of those systems on the product page)

• Understand that you can add the xk glow leds, Stealth subs, and speakers down the road after installing the boost box.
• Understand that it cost less to buy the boost box with the combination of our speakers, and/or Stealth Sub and/or xk glow package versus buying those items separately later down the road.
• Understand that our plug n play speaker, stealth sub, and underglow package, are plug n play because we mount the amplifier and led controller to the PowerPlate, wire them in, and install connectors for all items. So what does this mean? It means if you buy just the speakers or just buy the stealth sub package, you can still add either audio option because the amp powers both the speakers and sub and will be wired to do so. But, if you decide to purchase the XK Glow led system first or later, it will not be plug n play as we sell the led system with the controller mounted and wired with connectors (If you found yourself in that scenario needing the amp or led controller after already having one or the other, you could ship us your PowerPlate back and we could install the necessary products!)
• As stated above though, please read our Advice Guide so you can make a full educated decision on which decision is best for you!
