It amazes me when folks say this. To be able to hear your audio at highway cruising speeds you need an absolute minimum of 100 watts per speaker (preferably more) to accomplish this. Boom doesn't come close. Consequently, those 100watts per speaker will have folks hearing you across town.

I'm running the Boom Audio in my 2011 Street Glide (fairing and saddle bag speakers) with an Aquatic AV head unit (288 watts) and have no problems hearing it at interstate speed.
I'm just running the head unit, no amp connected.

True. lol

Besides, the volume **** controls whether people can hear it across town or not. lol
