Why the Rockford hate? My bike sounds great at all volumes and speeds and have had zero issues at all. Just wondering. Not looking to argue. Just curious why. Is the the amp? The speakers? What would be a better speaker option for an SG fairing? Tx

So if u like the RF, run with it brother. They have some respectable stuff and some garbage too, as w all audio companies. But just know that there is a ton of stuff that smokes it and also stuff that won't touch it.
It ain't personal either!!!! Just audio.

I don't think there is a bunch of hate brother. I think in general these discussions are a bit about our brothers & sisters (including myself) not knowing what it out there and how good our systems can really get with the same speaker holes being utilized. Leaning forward is never a bad thing. RF is an average Joe kit setup imho. If u went from Boom to RF u would absolutely be light years ahead and very pleased w your purchase. Up to the point where u hear a different setup that cost less and completely smokes the RF stuff. Hell I liked the J&M stuff when I dumped the Boom. Then I heard other shix and realized that there is some really damn awesome stuff out there for far cheaper. The J&M came out of the sled in record time as I'm an audio enthusiast and always have been, aka my audio unicorn hunt is perpetual.
