Boom audio amp/speaker issues
Back in June, I installed the Boom Audio cruiseramp and speakers (p/n 76320-08). After about 400 miles of riding, I noticed the speakers started popping and fading in and out. Sounded like the amp was failing or overheating. So in an attempt to save my new audio system I shut it down for the day. Tried it the following day, same issue as soon as I turned it on.
Anybody experienced or heard of this audio system being a waste of $$$ ?

Had a chance this weekend to look at my Boom Audio system. All wiring checked out fine. I did figure out that it now takes about 3 minutes of operating the audio system to make it start popping and cracking. The popping and cracking comes from both speakers. I would say the amp is toast !!!!

boom amp
i have a 2014 street glide in which i added the boom audio speakers and amp also had to have the radio flashed. it worked great the first week,plenty of power and great sound. the first week the right hand speaker blew,two weeks later radio was working fine and i decided to turn off the radio power before i put the bike away. this morning i woke up to go for a ride and i have no sound. the stereo powers up i-pod is charged,mute button is off, all fuses are good ,stereo shows song playing, no sound, my guess is the amp is fried, any ideas of what else to check, how do you check the amp?, all connections are good, has anyone had problems with the new 2014 amp?
