Very good balance on this install for sure!!!

And agree w the DSP! I know it sounds like overkill for some folks but just not sure I would install a pro audio speaker without one. They are mission specific speakers thus must be managed accordingly.

Well done!!!

I agree. I didn't understand it until I started using one but to me it's the line between sounding ok and sounding good

I don't have a pro audio system but the DSP made my coaxial system sound much better. Was able to get better vocals out of them that I don't think would have happened just adjusting the frequency on the amp.

I'm guessing there is a Midbass amp in the mix as well?

Dragging this back to the top, I'm sure I'm behind the curve as usual, but progress is being made.
Faital 6rs140s are in the mail, thanks to Checkmate. Saddlebag guards are coming as well.
After a few tips from Mr. T, and a few swear words I pulled two 4 awg wires through the frame today. Looked at placement for my distribution blocks. Found a nice spot for my new tiny fuse block. I only get a couple hours a day to work so progress isn't as fast as I'd like.

Not a huge upgrade relatively speaking ...But New Amp (Stinger), adding a set of Lowers, and 4 new speakers. They are replacing my Biketronics 2180 and 7.

New build done but unfortunately didn’t make Daytona. One good thing about all this quarantine stuff is I got plenty of time to finish up a few small things and get this thing dialed in perfect.

Bike has a fat 21, top shop rear end, and DB pods molded to the fairing and DB lowers. Four 8 inch coax up front, 6.5 in the lids, four tweeters and two 10 inch subs, three batteries, five amps, and the best part is as hard as this thing hits I can still ride it 100mph on the high way! Paint was done by Beyond Sublime.
