Help deciding between two stereo systems
I completely understanding going with the Hertz or something similar in the fairing. What about Diamond Audio in the fairing? Are these also quality speakers? I just looked at the Pioneer 6900pros. I don't know if they would work well in my Lids with the way the tweeter sits up super high

Do a little research.

I agree with T. No problems with fitment in traditional lids. Also don't know of anyone running Diamond speakers. They have some nice amps but the speakers are suspect. I'd stick with the tried and true Hertz speakers.
Like I said we Installed a full diamond setup in a bike about 4 months ago. The guy loved it. I was very impressed with the speakers sound production, as well as the fact that they are so light weight. But I am hesitant to give a full weight recommendation since they haven't really stood the test of time.

Thanks for the advice about the fit on the Pioneer Pros. I like them but didn't know about the fit. I have the traditional CVO style speaker Lids with metal mesh grills. Definitely going to be checking into the Hertz lineup for the front fairing.
Feel free to hit me up if you have any questions about hertz speakers or such my friend. We are a dealer and do mostly hertz setups on bikes frequently.

Those speakers have not been vetted by anyone I know on this forum and I pretty much know every regular on here. It's cool that one guy liked em. But I can name you 10 guys as we speak who love the Hog tunes speakers. Doesn't mean they are good to go and we would recommend purchasing Hog tune speakers. Stick to the tried and true coach!!

Lol I wasn't recommending them. I was just simply giving the input I had to give on the requested brand my friend. I personally was impressed with the sound but I would still use hertz any day if the week. Just trying to give the OP all the info I had on what he asked about. I will say though don't be too afraid of new stuff....you never know when the next awesome thing is around the corner lol. This audio game changes so much and so fast if you aren't paying attention you might get left behind haha.
