Ultraclassic stereo upgrade with a punch!
Hi all, new to the forum because I want to know a few things.
I want ant to do a massive upgrade to my 2014 Flhtk. I have lowers with the coolers. Can I put speakers in them?
Want to put put speakers in the bag lids. Do they work or waste of money?
Want to upgrade to a super loud system full of clear bass and able to just flat out F’n ROCK!
How many amps can I run? Where do I put them?
Budget isn’t really an issue, but I am doing it myself, and I don’t want to lose bag space.
What is the best investment with manufacture names and model numbers please.
Any extra notes / tips are appreciated!

Thanks Marco, I tried that and your right. There are hundreds. Was looking to see if there was one guy that did it that is beside himself with his transformation and results. I’ve seen everything from deck replacement to amp in the right side bag.
Trying to to narrow it down.
Thanks for the advice my friend!

Superoofer, I'm not an installer. Just a professional listener! The only question I can help with is lowers. I have lowers with wetheads too (2016 Limited Ultra), and Hogtunes now makes an adaptor to install a 6.5 speaker in the lowers. I'm having it done right now during the winter. Also, IMO, the search function is pretty useless. Ask away!

Welcome to the hunt for the perfect system.
As it was suggested get out and hit some areas around you to have a listen to some different systems.
For starters there are a few companies that are offering lower fairing 6.5 adapters/pods for the wetheads. There is a company that just released an 8 inch lower but NOT for the wethead as of yet.
As for wanting some killer bass, in order to achieve that goal you are going to have to give up some bag space and go with a minimum of a good 8 in each bag. There are a variety of speaker manufacturers that have products to achieve that goal. You also have to remember that you will lose some of the effective bass when you start rolling down the road.
Another alternative to putting speakers in the bags would be to go with a JL 8.8 in the speaker lids.
As for amps that is a matching game with speakers. Some amps work well with some speakers and not as well with others.
