The sound quality "to me" is not impressive. He played some songs that I never heard and cranked it. It was just ear bleeding loud to me. All you heard was the mid to high notes. The Boom II Sitting still sounds better to me. I'm going to go to the Audio guys meet-n-greet here by in June. I'm going to listen to some systems and get some ideas. Some of the other things... I didn't know until the install was done. You lose FM almost completely, because of the Sounds AMP in the fairing. (I still do use FM here/there). They won't honor your warranty if you use the Speed Control Volume.. I LOVE the Speed Control Volume. They say, if you are parked at a light and are jamming tunes, then take off quick and the SCV ramps the volume up, you will blow the speakers. Also, they claim there system is tuned for an iPhone streaming Amazon Prime Music, because they say that is the highest quality equipment and music service. Well maybe that's true, but I use an Android and Pandora. I'm not changing phones or music sources simply for a system in my bike. I don't know... I just was not impressed, and now I have a very sour taste in my mouth over all this. Maybe over the year of debating I set my expectation way to high. . If that system was $1500... I wouldn't be questioning it. But not at what i paid.

I am keeping the updated Boom Box GTS. But the Soundz dealer was nice enough to offer me a refund and swap the systems back out. Had I waited till spring, I don't think they would have. Bummed..!!

They quoted me something like $3200 after they did the demo and I was high steppin like Hershel Walker up out of that place!
