I have it. I like the amp, wiring and the bag lid kit. I went with different speakers though so I have no input there.

I have them, the amp and install kit is excellent, and the speakers are VERY loud and decently clear. However, they are a little bright and a touch harsh in my opinion. They do well at higher volume and and can be easily heard at 80. I sealed my pods and added some polyfill which improved the tone to my ears.honestly it depends on your ears and what you kind of music you listen to, I’m a touch of an audiophile and listen mostly to classic hard rock and metal.

I have an RF amp and speakers on the rears, other brands up front. In my opinion the amp sounds great, it just isn't powerful enough to drive the front and rear stage. One or the other, but not both. Keep in mind that is just my experience with the TM400x4ad and the RF marine 6x9s. I am going to try some Polk 6x9s soon. Since they are 2.7 ohms I might get more sound out of the 100+ watts going to the lids.

The opinion seems to be around here if you want somewhat better than stock RF is good. If you want LOTS better than stock you should probably look elsewhere. Also the RF amps seem to get hot real quick.

I really like my RF system. Though I used Hertz speakers in the rear instead of the RF speakers that came in the kit.
I'm totally satisfied.
The key is tuning it all in.

I installed the Fosgate system in my 2016 SGS and was very happy with it, I am actually considering installing a similar RF system in my 2016 RG Ultra CVO. This time using the TM400X ad amp and 2 sets of the TMS65 speakers. I am not looking for the show quality soundz that allot of are looking for, I just want to be able to hear it at highway speeds..
