Default Boom! Audio Speaker System
I see in a flyer that the local dealer sent out that HD now offers the Boom! Audio Speaker System to mount to handlebars or windshield bar. Just curious if anyone has them yet, or has any experience with them. I am wondering how they sound, and if I'd be able to hear them over the V&H Long Shots.

Currently using the iPod, but would be nice not to have to mess around with earphones.

I have not heard the booms, however I run the J&M speakers on my ride. They sound great! I should be getting my bike back from the tranny repair tomorrow (hopefully) and I can post pics. I don't run a windshield but can hear them at speed on the highway with earplugs. Without earplugs I can hear them, but the wind is louder. These mount with a bracket to the switch housing and I run apes so they are right at ear level for me. I love them! Here is a link to them. http://www.jmcorp.com/SeeProducts.asp?PF=16

Cool. I will check them out too, as I hadn't heard about them. What exhaust are you running?

Those are Ultima Up and Outs. I took them off to put on a D&D fatcat 2 into 1 a while back. The fatcat is staying on.

Dude, the J&M JMAS-2008 kick the Harley speakers *** any day of the weak. These get so sound and sound so clear that people hear me coming from a half of a block away.

The mount on the switch housings. 2 bolts for each speaker. Here is a pic. I am going to wire them internally one of these days, I just have not had time yet.
