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 feel like they're going to be good option for 8s in the bags/lids/lowers. I've got them on the same amp I had the 10s on and they can take a good bit of power. Gain is lower than the 10s but not as low as I thought it would have to be. Solid midbass and can play down to 40hz they claim. Because they're in the bags I chose to not cross them that low bc they couldn't keep up with the volume of the fairing. I think I've got them bandpass Butterworth -12db slope at 50hz and 2k @-12db

Winter mods are done. Native rush 180 kit with the half breed fender. Removed biketronics amp and hertz speaker kit and sold. Added the massive tx48 ( thanks @Tailwind for all the help and info) and EX6NCD in fairing as well as rockvilles into crash bar using headlight buckets. Kept the hertz 690s in bags. All in all went from 4 speaker 500 watt to 6 speaker 1000 watt roughly. And got the Dakota digital mlx 8014 gauages installed. I'd save alot of money if I didn't have a 5 month off season with no bike insurance 😒

I ran across some new stuff out. Euphoria has some new coax 8's and 10's with compression drivers, and a couple new amps. I also ran a cross a new 'budget' series 6.5 coax with compression driver by Quantum audio that would be worth trying.

What’s the lowdown on The Speakers, Horns, Amps and DSP Brother?
Inquiring minds want to know.

Where did you get the headlight buckets? That sounds like a great option for my CVO for 6 speaker sound.

Don't want a mad rush on them just yet! LOL, While they do sound really nice and detailed, I am unsure on the longevity of them.
