Now I have Kappa speakers and RF amp. I like it much better. The J&M speakers were garbage compared to the Kappas. The J&M amp is not bad but I seem to like the RF better.
I myself would like to know what flash one gets when they follow RF's recommendation.

I just came back from having the flash done. I used the Biketronics recommended settings and got the 00_OFF. The volume was pretty low after the flash. So I stopped off at a gas station, found a shady spot out of the way and adjusted the amp. Wow, this thing sounds great now! It is more than loud enough at half volume and clear as a bell. I am completely happy with the sound now. I will never do another update though. I don't want to risk screwing it up.

Not with phone but gps street names are screwed up..This whole radio is a joke..could have been so nice..but let's get the cheapest bid to do the software for it ..because we are going to charge a premium for it.. but in Harley defense they only had 4 years to work on it.

The Official 2014 audio upgrade thread
I decided to take my fairing off to tweak some amp settings and while I was at it I downloaded the latest software patch to install. Much to my surprise, the download was done on my desktop machine that I just upgraded to WIN 10...and the Boom system wouldn't recognize it! Downloaded it again just to be sure, no change. System didn't even recognize it as a patch. Used my laptop still running WIN 8.1, no problem at all. So HD, has anyone tried WINDOWS 10 with your software patches?????? If this is a repeat I apologize, I didn't remember seeing any posts on this.

Well after spending a year away!!!, came back to ride the bike and after just a month back one of my Kappa's is blown!! I been doing some reading around this forum and it seems, at least to me, that they have a somewhat high failure rate.
Luckily I have a pair of Polk's MM651 that I have purchased a while back, will install them and see how it goes.
I'm using a RF pbr300x2 btw, had the gain set at 5 not sure why the speaker went bad.

Since the last update, about 50% of the time my Iphone doesn't connect via Bluetooth but you don't know it until you go to the phone page to make a call only to find it didn't automatically connect. Once you tell it to connect it does but just not automatically about 1/2 of the time.

So I had my speakers blow on my 2015 RGS and had them replaced under warranty. So decided to put in the Stage 2 boom speakers and amp. I know there are supposed to be better option but I was also trying to keep it under my 2 year warranty.
Well they put it in and it sounds like crap Bass and Treble adjustments don't seem to do anything and it just sounds like crap.
I found the post on how to check the bin file that is down loaded. I have 192_Off.bin
Seems like every one likes the 135_Off or the 00_Off.bin
I found a Txt file that shows all the bin files.
192_Off HU 121712 rev1d +3dBdyn GBDK_platinum.EQF
135_ON.bin HU 4ch active rev1e DK 041013.EQF
00_OFF.bin FLHT_EngOFF_EQ_4spkr_111412_rev1g.EQF
So what bin file is best for the setup I have? Do any of these bin files actually give you any better control of the bass and treble?
Any help would be greatly appreciated I am already at the point of having everything removed and just have the stock speakers put in.
