I'm guessing any difference would be heard sitting still only in the form of a little more bass?

Exceeds expectations. Mic on ipad couldn't handle the volume which is why you hear that high pitch scratching sound. More bass and crystal clear in person. Probably will sound even better with a higher quality song file.

Sounds sweet.

For that coin, I'm excited that your expectations where "surpassed."

Bet it sounds AWESOME in person!

Hey , I have a 2013 cvo 110 anniversary road glide, I have terrible static In most areas, I'm in , in NYC or elsewhere with fm stations, when I tested the radio in the show room in NJ I thought it was awesome , since then it has been all downhill, cd, and iPod plays great, I do have a internal antenna but don't know if that is the issue, I did put a set. Of sumax 8 mm ignition wires, and led turn signals in front , had to get a load equalizer , for lights ,can anyone give me some help with this , I personally thing there something wrong with the radio, I plugged in the factory wires again to see if there was a difference, but didn't see that, and I don't think the LEDs would have something to do with it, and also sometimes I can't change the station from the hand control or by pressing button next to station , but then all of a sudden it works , so it s driving me nuts I need some advice, by the way , I took it back to Harley took off fairing to see if antenna was intact , and it was, so there telling me its the internal antenna, can't be cause it worked fine when I first checked it out in the showroom

have you verified that you have the latest firmware/software installed on the radio?

http://www.harley-davidson.com/en_US...io-system.html

in fairing antennas are the worst for reception, period. The question is whether or not it's a 12v powered antenna and if so, has someone checked to see if the fuse for it is blown.
