Default Hertz complete kit from VA

Well, my order came in on SATURDAY and started on Sunday. I did do only like 3 hrs daily and finished installing today. Last step today I flashed the radio and turned on and HOLY MOLY!!!!!! This thing is super loud and clear!!!!! This kit was all PNP and easy as pie, now just waiting on the GZ yellow basket to install to see which speakers I’m keeping in the Fairing.

nice setup. im planning a similar setup. i did a quick bench test with the Hertz 6.5 Neo & the GZ 6.5's. both were really loud with less than half the RMS power. the GZ's seemed warmer with more bass and are going in my street glide with Hertz Neo 6x9's in the lids & bag 8's. the Hertz 6.5's are going in my softail because they were louder and my softail doesnt have the fairing to block the wind noise.

yea that’s what it’s starting to look like, I think GZ yellow basket is gonna be the winner for the fairing but we’ll see.
