Teedoff65,
And everyone else please read,
I’m a new member here and I’m in the process of upgrading my rear 6x9’s. I found a pair of Pioneer Pros in the classifieds that Travelingypsye was selling and asked to buy them. Well he gave them to me, just asked for $20 bucks to cover shipping, which that was the least I could do. Being new here he even offered to ship them on his dime and when I got them I could pay him then. Lets just say I was shocked, total stranger and this guy is giving me $150 dollar speakers WOW. With that said I would like to pass along the same generosity I was given, just cover the shipping. The speakers are Hog Tunes 6x9’s that you can buy with the lids as a kit and there is nothing wrong with them. They actually don’t sound that bad and have pretty good bass. They are 200 watt, 2 ohm speakers and would work good with your setup. I just bought my bike and the amp that was already in the bike is a Rockford PBR 300x4 so your amp would make these sound even better. My amp isn’t even 2 ohm stable but they don’t sound that bad. I just want something louder to go with the front PA setup I’m going to be upgrading to at some point. Let me know if you want them.
Big THANK YOU to Travelingypsye
Thanks,
Dana
