Winter builds, hmm. I'd like to add 2 more 8's to my Dyna, and may try the new Euphoria EX8NCD's. They also have EX10NCD's out now but I can't use them in a 'featherweight' class. The built in compression drivers will be an advantage with a 6 speaker limit. I may try the new Euphoria 5 channel amp(4x200w @4ohm and 1x725w, or 4x400w and 1000w @ 2ohm). since space is severely limited in the small batwing fairing on the Dyna.

Ripped the bike apart on the weekend and I’m starting over. I tried going on the cheap for my first build and was never satisfied. Not building a competition bike just something that sounds good while touring. So I tossed the cheap Pioneer HD and bought a much better reviewed and spect one. Ditched the cheap front speakers and installed a set of Hertz . Made a aluminum amp mount for the Soundstream in the tour pack. Did some other minor stuff like threw away all the split loom for wires and will run everything in Flexo wrap. New LED lights are awaiting me on my porch so those will go in . I may still change out the amp still undecided.

Anymore as the audio game advances if someone stumbles across any good sounding audio they keep it to their self or may tell a select few.
With all the audio competition in this day it is a MUMs the work on the new found sound.

Thanks for going out trying something different. Let us know your thoughts on those Ciare speakers.

Not a whole lot of people going out and testing any different equipment lately and everyone is stuck in the Stinger/Mmats rut.

I like the 8s I had never heard of them either. Adenton suggested them so I thought I'd give them a try. Off the beaten path of 8s
