boom audio
i was just wondering if any of you softail riders had the boom audio handle bar mounted speakers and what you think or thought about them. i am thinking of getting a set for my wife's heritage but not really sure. i have listened to them in the dealer but i want to hear some opinion on what they sound like on the road at speed.

I just ordered apes and may be selling them. I just got them back in February, but I don't think they will look right on my apes. Great sound, and I can here them at 80 mph on the interstate with windshield.
Let me know and good luck!

I have the boom windshield mount. If she rides a Heritage, I'd go for it instead of the handlebar mount, but that's just me. I'm sure there's better out there, but I can't complain much about mine. On the highway it could stand to be a bit louder, but I can still (very poorly) sing along with most of the songs. I love that it quick detaches with the windshield which is the main reason I went with boom. Other then that, it let me down once while I was on a trip and got caught in the pouring rain. I've been caught in the rain before, and after, and never had trouble, but I mean it was RAINING! Anyways, it came back after a few days and has been fine since.

I've got the chrome ones. There has to be better speakers out there. When new I could hear up to about 70-75. But they are on the top of apes. About 6 mo the chrome started looking bad a year now and I think I have blown a speaker. Also they drain your battery. The nice thing about them is the control for volume. I'm not sure if constant loud music is what yourgirl listenes too though lol. Maybe someone will have a better review.

I've read the windshield mount Boom system is AWESOME! I have an '06 Heritage. Even though the specs say '09 and later, I've heard it fits earlier models. Anyone know for sure?
