Default Street Glide Audio Upgrade

I'm planning to upgrade fairing speakers and add an amp to my 2011 street glide. Trying to decide between J&M Rokker, Hogtunes, and HD Boom audio. Any help in making tis decision is appreciated.

Check out the focal access 165 ca1 and a1 speakers. Does that make it any easier?

I'm looking to upgrade the speakers and amp on my 2010 RG. It's not on your list but I'm pretty close to pulling the trigger on Arc Audio's MPAC 6.

Just ordered a set of the new Biketronics Titan II's. Talked to Biketronics before ordering and they told me these speakers are efficient enough to sound really good without an amp. They should be here Saturday. Will post my impressions when I get them installed.

I wouldnt waste the money on any of these brands, but if you're dead set on the 3... Boom sounds the best of the 3 from what I have heard. If you're looking for a package deal... check out Baggernation's Rockford Fosgate set ups... they blow away J&M and they cost less! I heard both of those at Bike Week last year and there really is no contest! Hogtunes has some new stuff out that I have not heard yet so I can't speak about their newer line... but their older line is a little better than stock at best. Hawg Wired has some package deals also... but they are a little expensive in my opinion. In any case... I would surely go with a 6.5" speaker up front. Good luck and be sure to post a review of whatever you decide to go with.

Im kinda in the same boat, I have a ultra. so far the most appealing for the money is the hard ride setup, Im just about to pull the trigger on this-http://www.hardrideaudio.com/hra/products/92-batwing-fairing-65-speaker-upgrade-kit.aspx unless I find a better deal by next week.
