Default Road King Sound System
I currently ride a Street Glide with the Rockford Fosgate amp and 2 speaker system and it is awesome. But am considering going to a CVO Road King. I would need to add speakers to the bags to continue with a sound system. My question is how is the sound quality, can you hear bag speakers at highway speed if they are the only speakers I am using? Thanks in advance.

I couldn’t hear the bags at all at speed on My Road King, and that was with a nice amp and 6x9’s in the bags. You’ll need to get lowers, and/ or maybe some pods.

Speaker lids? 8" coax, or 8" mid/horn?
