Default Hertz Mille Pro 6.5 versus JL Audio C3

I am in the process of changing my sound system on a 2015 Ultra Classic. Trying to decide between Hertz or JL audio speakers for the fairing and trunk. Does anyone have an opinion on which speaker setup to get?

Why not try the forum that's dedicated to stereos and electronics a little further down the page?

Biggest difference between the two, and I've owned both (currently selling the a pair of the 6.5 Hertz Legends now on audio for sale section) - the JL didn't like getting wet and would crackle until they dried (be it rain or washing) - sound quality can be close depending on which JL's speakers you are looking at, amp you are pushing & how you set the gains and HP settings.

Hertz speakers have a great name and are a favorite of the guys with big money stereos. I currently have JL Audio C3's and love them. I don't think you would be disappointed with either. The Hertz are a lot more money where I live.

Do you have any issues with them if they get wet?

do you still have the hertz setup? If so I am interested in learning what all you have and what you are looking to get for it. Pm with details?
