    Been lookin at some speaker upgrades for the future. Doing homework now.
    Got a buddy with the J&M 7 1/4 speaker upgrade and a amp.
    Then J&M comes out with the Rokker 7 1/4 speakers. They claim to be the best.

    So there is J&M, ARC audio,Bazooka , Polk audio Hawg Wired, BikeTronics, and more.
    And who makes the speakers for Kuryakyn and are they any good.


    Who has the best sounding speaker that you can use with or without a Amp.
    Andybody done a study on this.
    Know it had to be a big topic at Daytona

    And I was lookin at the speaker kits to go in the hard lowers like the 2011 SE has

    There is your answer, put a headset in your full face helmet, turn up the volume and blow out your ears. :D I turn the rear speaks off and crank up the front speakers, don't like em blaring in my ears though. :D

    There yea go, how much??? If like other J&M products I find them to be over priced.
    Have you heard those speakers on the CVO street glide that are mounted in the lower pods. Wicked!
