Default Anyone running an after market amp on the 14+?

Hello, I'm trying to ad the amp and new speakers I was running on my 07 and it sounds like ****. I have tried it with and with out the sound streams magic black box everyone was bragging about. I did put some polyfil in the pods. Is there a chance I put to much in? Any help appreciated, I spent to much to give up now.lol

If you are running one and speakers and wouldn't mind telling us what your running and how you like it? And if you had to change anything to make it work correctly? Thanks, Todd

I have a pbr300x2 and kappas speakers in my 14sgs. I had the dealer flash the radio, set the amp x-over to high pass and gain at about 75%. Sounds good.

What model Mike are you running. I believe that directly impacts what works and doesn't. Also might help with what flash to recommend

yes, should be lightly packed, in fact packed is too much...
I see people here wedge it in and that's not how it works...

I installed the Hogtunes NCA 450 – RM 200 W four channel amplifier and the Hogtunes model 362F – RM 6 1/2 inch front speakers on my bike. While the sound is a big improvement, I think I need to go by the dealer and get the flash for the radio as recommended above. I know this, my wife says the sound is a big improvement over the factory system.
