Default Audio upgrade suggestions needed!

I upgraded my system with mm651's and Soundstream amp, I'm very happy with the setup and price with exception of the lack of radio due to the amp. My Dad is looking to replace stock speakers (4ea) and add an amp. does anyone have anyone have an opinion of good setup for 1g or under?

$1000? That's easy. Alpine pdx-f6 and 4 each infinity kappa 62.11i.

What kind of bike does he have?

If you are only running the fairing speakers, replace the Soundstream amp with the pbr300x2 and you will have your FM radio back.

I'm looking at the infinity Kappa 62.11i (4ea) and the pb3 300X2 (2ea). Do you see any problems with the pbr amps or do you just prefer the Alpines.

I have a street glide but pops has an Ultra. I am looking at replacing my amp with the pbr300X2 and considering 2 of them for his ultra.

I would go with the Infinity speakers for your dad's all around, or if he wants to spend a little extra, the Infinity for the tour pack odds pods and the Biketronics 7.1's for the fairing. No problems with the pbr amps. Very reliable and powerful.

To piggyback on the last post, is it just a case of drill a few extra holes for the Infinitys to have them fit in tour pak pods?

Default audio upgrade

Are any system upgrades plug and play? The biketronics setup looks like soldering etc. It appears that the J&M system doesn't require and mods. I have a 2013 Ultra Limited and am thinking about upgrading.
