The SuperStar SS-656 audio-upgrade combo pairs the slim 80-watt SS-656 10-meter radio with the DRX-9010 external speaker and DRX-6560 4-pin noise-cancelling dynamic microphone. It's the SS-656 with its audio chain already sorted — the two accessories most SS-656 buyers upgrade to anyway.

The built-in speaker on any slim mobile is a compromise; the DRX-9010 wedge speaker fixes that and gives the SS-656's variable talkback something to actually work with. The DRX-6560 dynamic noise-cancelling mic replaces the stock hand mic with a chrome-grille element that stays clean on air even in a noisy cab. Together, they take the SS-656 from "capable radio" to "capable radio that sounds like one."

How much do I save with this bundle?

You save 5% versus buying the SS-656, DRX-9010, and DRX-6560 as separate items. The bundle price reflects that discount automatically.

Is the DRX-6560 a plug-and-play upgrade for the SS-656?

Where should I mount the DRX-9010 external speaker?

The DRX-9010 wedge-shape speaker ships with a heavy-duty mounting bracket. Common mounting locations include under the dash, on the transmission tunnel, on an overhead console panel, or on a headliner brace. The 10-ft detachable speaker cable plugs into the SS-656's external speaker jack on the rear panel.

Should I still add the Pro Tune and Alignment service?

Yes. Don't forget to add the Pro tune and alignment option at checkout so that your radio is professionally bench-tuned for best performance per the manufacturer's service manual. The audio-upgrade combo does not include tuning by default.
