Pulled the trigger on the Cicada DSP150.4D amp and CH65.4 speakers for my 2019 Street Glide set-up. Install should be next week once parts are in. Only $220 more than the Evox 400.2, GZ, HKI DSP set-up. Hopefully it will be worth the money!

I’ll post results when it’s all finished

 

Congrats! Are you running stock system now?

 

Completely stock, bought late summer and put off new system until this year. My old ride I had some Polk MM651’s and a RF PBR 300x2 in. Big difference with that one, expect better with this.

i installed last one, not too bad. Paying for install this time due to time constraints.

 

I think you will be happy, I am happy with My CH65, they are warmer than I thought they would be and are loud and clear!

 

I agree with Kenbow. Just installed the ch65 horns in the fairing , the cx65 in tour pack pods along with the dsp150 amp, speakers all in 2 ohm.The system is everything cicada said it would be. Definitely happy..

 

Where'd you buy this set up?? I just went to the cicada website and it appears to be down.

 

I bought mine 2 weeks ago. Their site went down Friday. Their phone is 14808878699. Ask for Forrest or Larry.

 

Why did you go this route vs something different? Is that amp going to be powerful enough to drive those speakers? American Hardbag sells those speakers and I looked in to them and the CX65 are 500 watt RMS and the CH are 200 watt speakers.

do you intend on breaking the horns in the CX to their own channel and the mid bass driver on a second?

 

I bought the system after talking with Larry of cicada. Going 2 ohm doesnt require as much power from the amp.The amp was made to power the speakers in his line up. I like the built in dsp. It allows for adjustments on each speaker. I will not be be adding more power or breaking them down and seperating the horns and the mid bass,dsp allows me to tune them individually or like I did, I grouped the fairing speakers together, and then the coaxs together. So in the dsp I just made adjustments to each group. I am by no means a expert on dsps, but talking with Larry, he got me in the right direction on settings, then I just fine tuned for the music that I listen to.. My bike is a daily driver, so for me the amount of sound coming out is exceptional. The coaxs add warmth and the horns are precise and loud. I a running a kenwood single din hd radio. One thing with the cx65s with my 2008 ultra, I had to use the metra adapters and grind off a small lip on the inside of the outer fairing for them to clearance ok. Dont know if that is true with the newer bikes ,but with my bike that was required. I had always used biketronics adapters before, but they push the chs back to far. I would call and talk to Larry, he designed the whole thing and has more insight than anyone I have talked with, even walked a novice thru the set up. That is why I decided to go with them.If I have a question , I get to talk with the owner...

 

Don’t get caught up in watts, look to the speakers efficiency. Some of the manufacturers overstate their specs and everyone hears something different from the same speakers.
