Default J&m or Hog Tunes

I'm replacing stock speakers in my '12 SG. I'm thinking a it the j&m rokker 7.25" with the tweeter grills or the hog tunes 5.25" with the amp. Any opinions on which would be better?

I really like my complete Hog Tunes package I got through Dennis Kirk. I wasn't going for the loudest system I could find, just wanted to boost the volume a bit over stock so I would be loud and clear over my pipes and wind noise. It worked perfectly for that. If I were to the add the tweeter pod it would be even better, but I really like my windshield bag setup the way it is so I've held off adding it for now.

I haven't tried J&M so I can't offer any comments other than I've heard good things about them.

Hog tunes is a good value and pretty popular entry level equipment. Nothing wrong with Hog tunes. If you are looking to spend the money on J&M, do yourself a favor and look at Hawg Wired as well. I like Hawg Wired amps and speakers better than J&M.

Hawg Wired is made in the USA, high quality equipment and has great customer service. I won't use terms like "sounds better" because that is up to your ears to determine.

Good luck.

Try the Biketronics 7.1's and Rockford Fosgate pbr300x2.

Check out the audio section for opinions and figure out what you might like.

I would pass on both HT or JM.
There's better choices.

I just installed the Biketronics 7.1's. I'm happy with them. They are on sale now for $269, regularly $299.

The 7.1 is a coaxial speaker with a built in tweeter, yes.
