Boom Stage 2 w/ 8 speakers

Has anyone done an 8 speaker set up on their 2014 later touring rig? Ie 2 in front fairing, 2 in lower fairing, 2 in bag lids, and two on rear tour pak? To do it in Stage two config. set up would require 4 Boom amps by my calculations. Where does the amp for the front lower fairing get mounted, and also for the rear tour pak? Do both get mounted in the bags, or one under the tour pak? Never really liked that (in the weather) set up.

Thanks.

Not to mention the high price you're gonna pay for the Boom junk.

gotta run with Gann and SB here, you dont wanna spend all that money on something that would sound crappy in the end. keep readind, askin questions, define your end goal and set your budget, we can offer suggestions on products that boom will never compare with and be much more budget friendly

Sounds great, what aftermarket companies have the hot set up these days? I had a Hawg Wired amp on my last bike if memory serves correct.

you need to contact Alex from BaggerAudioLab
he will put togeter a system for you that that no boom system will ever touch
he is a sponsor of this forum, an audio equipment supplier, installer, and most importantly...a wealth of knowledge when it comes to bike audio
the stuff he sells is top shelf...tried and tested...and you will crap when you see what you can get for the money you were thinkin bout wasting on boom
