Default Bag Speakers

Need your opinions please.

As you know, the Hogworz and Harley recommended bag speakers lids and speakers are expensive. What I would like to is what have others used as an option instead of theirs. Did you use after market and which did you go with?

Your help is appreciated.

some put speaker in the fairing lowers.

easier wiring, can be much less expensive and your ears face forward- so sound coming from the front makes more sense.

What Mike said. If you put a quailty speaker in the lowers you will not hear much from bag speakers. With that said I went with colton bag lids in vivid black and bt 6x9s speakers which I will sell to you.

How much are you selling them for and what did you think of the look? They are a bit different from the photos I saw but just asking your opinion.

I run Hogtunes lids with Pioneer TS 6902's in them. At speed I don't hear them, but I do hear my lowers. Bags sound great in the garage.
