Polk DB652 6.5 speakers vs Biketronics Titan II 6.5 speakers
I have a friend that has some Polk DB652 6.5 speakers new in the box and a like new pair of Biketronics Titan II 6.5 speakers for sale. I want them for the front fairing on a 2012 Ultra. The price doesn't matter to me. I just want to know if there is a glaring difference between them or if they would perform about the same and maybe why. My guess is the Titans would be better. And no, no, no I don't want to hear that they are all junk and the XYZ brand is the only kind to use. Let's just concentrate between these two choices. THANKS a lot.

The Polks are rated at 4ohms ,2 ohms would be better for a Harley head unit. Can't find the rating for the Titans though they are specifically made to work in Harley fairings , 2012 my need the cone kit to fit 6.5's. The Titans also retail for over 3 times what the Polks do , based on that they would seem to be the better speakers in this comparison.

I have the Polks in my fairing and Tour Pak with a small Focal amp and they are plenty loud and clear enough for my needs. I've had them for 3 years now without issue. I cannot comment on the Titans.

It is the Focal 4.350 as I could buy it locally. Many popular brands aren't readily available up North of the border. I have it mounted using velcro to the inner fairing under the glove box of my Road Glide. Even when I think I have my radio turned down, everyone comments they hear me coming; I have no complaints with the Focal and Polks.
