Default Audio system for deluxe
Hi, some suggestion and recommendations for audio system to installing on deluxe.
Shark system with amplifier is a good choice?
If you want attached some pics.

I just got some $30 chatterbox helmet speakers and velcro'd them into my helmet, then got a$50 iPod shuffle and velcro'd that onto my dash panel. I can switch the speakers from helmet to helmet as the weather changes, and can hear it quite well over the wind and engine noise. Another nice feature is that I can use all the controls on the shuffle with gloves on. I didn't want to have huge speakers hanging off my bike, and I didn't care if everyone around me can hear my music as long as I can hear it. If I decide I want to plug the speakers into a different music source like my phone or a different iPod I can just plug it in.

Beautyfull job, yzergod.
Are enough 100w? Because amplifier is smaller so is more easy to find a place...

Thank you. 100 watts is ok. I'd like more, but the beauty of that system is that you do not need a stereo, just an ipod. There is another member on the forum named Joe who has made a slick fork bag stereo set-up as well. You can see pictures of it here and his name on the forum is JRK5892. HTH!

I'm happy with my iPhone and ear-buds. My ea-buds also block the wind noise, so it's win-win.

That's a crazy price. Pity the shipping to the UK is almost as much again, and then I'd probably have to pay the same yet again in taxes and charges when it arrives in the UK. Otherwise, I'd be all over that deal.
