Speaker upgrade

I already got rid of my stock speakers last year March and went with a set of HogTunes 902.2/REV speakers and NCA-70.2 REV Series Amp. It was definitely an improvement. I'm now replacing my HK head unit with a Sony DSX-S310BTX and am now rethinking the Hogtunes.

If I dug deeper into my wallet, what would be the best upgrades from the HogTunes speakers? I think they are still 5 1/2".

Are the foam inserts or baffles mandatory to getting great sound from your fairing speakers?

Used that set up for about a year, then decided I needed a little more. I pulled the Hogtunes amp and speakers and bought this:

Rockford Fosgate pbr 300 x 2 amp = Ebay for about $140 shipped
Biketronics Titan II 7.1 fairing speakers = about $250 shipped (lifetime warranty)
The 7.1's come with adapter rings and fit perfectly.

I still have the stock HK head unit. I'm a newbie, but still only took about 2-3 hrs installation time.

I am extremely happy with this set up for less than $400, probably close to what I paid for the Hogtunes.

AM-FM are crystal clear and I'm amazed at how this system rocks!
