Good lids will run you around 600 bucks alone with paint.
You can get GREAT bass with the "right" 6X9's inside your bags. With your budget if you want loud and bass I'd get:
Fairing - Arc Audio Moto 602 - 300.00
Bags - Infinity 693.9i 150.00 (these are discontinued and hard to find, so you might have to call around they are worth it).
Amp - PN4.1000D 150.00
Amp bracket - Get it from J&M 150.00
Magic box - 69.00 (too many folks having issues with their flash)
Amp wiring kit - 20.00
Polyfill, extra wires, etc. - 30.00
Around 900.00 bucks and this will hit HARD.
If you wanted more fidelity, clarity, but slightly not as loud I'd get
Hertz HCX speakers 300.00
Diamond Audio Micro 4 - 350.00
instead of the Arc's and PN4.1000D amp set up.
For installation drill a 3 inch hole in the back of your pods as they will vibrate otherwise and distort from the added bass, and lightly put some polyfill in there. If you were closer to FL I would've installed it you to hear it!
+1 HAZE NAILED IT AS ALWAYS! Another option on the 6x9's for the non-budget conscience are the Moto 692's Expensive but worth every penny especially for guys like yourself who want BASS! I have not given a review on these speakers yet as I just installed them on my bike a couple days ago. But I'll throw this out there for anyone who wants a quality speaker in the lids and doesn't mind the price. THESE ARE THE BEST SPEAKERS I'VE EVER HAD IN MY LIDS AND I'VE HAD EM ALL!
