You never seem to offfer any useful information here why is that?
"Pimping your boy?" I forgot more about audio that you know. lol. Your right his ears may not like it? This is stuff we do everyday. I know what works and what doesn't. That is just a fact. Again, a 4 speaker set up can be done crossed @80 that will sound better than 90% of most peoples bikes. But what do I know.

Last time I checked Hertz and Beyma are about expensive as it gets. I’ve had all the Hertz stuff and a couple Beyma speakers to boot. Good gear. But I don’t expect to purchase very much of that stuff with $1000 bucks. My Hertz Millie 6x9’s alone were $400 bucks. Throw $300 bucks at a SD amp and budget is damn near gone with two Items. Now if you can get that stuff at dealer cost it’s a different story but but I doubt many of us here can get it at those prices.

I wish the members who own shops or sale gear outside the forum were identified here somehow. It seems a lot of times they recommend the gear they sale regardless of the end users need/request. I'm not saying everyone who sells stuff does this, but several do. What's worse is other members don't know they are retailers, and that what’s being suggested is on their shelf. The forums dirty little secret, I guess.

Correct, they could sound good with the right complementing components to the whole picture. But adding even a inexpensive dsp (DSR1 @ 250.00) adds another bite out of his budget.
