OK Gurus..2013 Roadie, 4 speakers..need recomendations on speakers and amp that wont break the bank, but sound decent, more volume. want to keep the HK head unit..

hey scooter.. need to find out of the customer listens to FM.. If not and he/she's not worried about possibly losing some FM reception, then SS PN4.520D mounted on the inside left of the fairing. 2 pair of Polk MM651 (try to find some that are not in a batch that starts with AA).. that setup will blow your mind..

But if FM is an issue, then I think I'd go the route of (2) RF PBR300x2 and 2 pair of Polks..

Hey Ultranutz,

So if it says "Polk Audio AA2651-A MM651 6.5-Inch Coax Speaker" i'm guessing these are the ones i need to stay away from?

These are the speakers you DO want. Don't get the UM version
