The $1300 question
I'm looking to upgrade the system on my 2010 RG. I've noticed a lot of people on this forum like Biketronics so I priced out a system using all of their components. For roughly $1300 (top of my budget) I can get their four channel amp, 7.1" fairing speakers and their 6x9 speakers for my saddlebag lids. Any thoughts? Can I get more bang for my buck or same bang for less buck? I'll be picking out an aftermarket head unit that will be a separate discussion/budget. I only want opinions on the amp and speakers. Thanks in advance for any responses.

The BT 6x9's are $450, any recommendations?

The Pioneer 6900 PRO speakers have been getting a lot of love here recently. I have a set in my chopped TP and Biketronics 6x9's in my lids. I am entertaining the idea of removing the BT speakers for a second set of the Pioneers. The Pioneer speakers can be had for about $125ish which leaves you plenty of $$ for a new head unit.

Exactly - Could do major damage with a $1300 budget. Biketronics is a great place to start.

If you'd only been a couple weeks earlier I could've hooked you up with a smokin deal. Everything is gone now but the 7.1's.

Comparable is an understatement. I've had both. While the BT's are really nice speakers. Pioneer went next level with the Pro's.
I would personally recommend a hertz setup if that is your budget range. I have built full front and back setups in that range with a head unit swap and I have never heard a complaint. If I can help please let me know.
