Do a search for Hawg Wired, their speakers and amps are expensive but the sound is fantastic. I think this is a case of you get what you pay for. I am currently having them installed on a new 08 SG.

FKR FLHX ,,,,,

try the J&M speakers from our website,,, you will be impressed ,,,,,,,

if not, J&M will refund your $$ no questions asked ,,, pasted below from the Harley Classics page at the J&M website,,,,,









[/font]High Performance Fairing Speaker Upgrade for ’06 and later HarleyStreetGlide[/font]

HCUS-06GT



[/size][/font]













[font=arial][size=2]If you want to make the most dramatic change possible to the music quality and audio power from your fairing-mounted speakers, then replace the stock units with a set of our high-performance models.

They have been designed specifically for the 2006 and later HarleyÂŽ Electra Glide/Ultra/Street Glide fairing and feature a waterproof injection molded polycarbonate cone woofer , high-flux strength Neodymium magnet, high efficiency voice coil and a replacement grill set with mounted chrome tweeters.

Spec’d at 2 ohms impedance and 140+ watts power, you will be impressed by the significant improvement in bass response, midrange clarity, audio power and overall fidelity.

Their mounting hole pattern and spade electrical connections are exactly the same as the factory specification, making replacement a snap.

Your satisfaction is guaranteed.

when't thru this a while ago, searching on this forum is worth the time. generally there is a huge love-in for hogtunes so they must have a decent product. u will find some that went from hogtunes to j&m's and noticed an impovement, not so the other way. hawgwired with amp seems to impress the most. i ended up with j&m's and a sony mex1-gp deck and am very happy.

The JBL's are in the Bat Wing, a day late.
They sound is great, not as loud as I would like, but as luck would have it, my brother is down for a visit.
Frank can't wrench to safe a life, but he knows music and computors like nobody.
We did the install, total time of 45 minutes plus a short high speed test ride.
BTW we check all the fairing brackets that everybody being talking about. No problems here, brackets are **** made, but OK( with 8000+ km).
Tried with and without insulation. With insulation it seemed to lower the mid range a little.
Installed them with no insulation, and I am very pleased with the sound. So much better than stock.
The only improvements I could recommend would be an AMP and Bigger speakers.
Good luck with your installs.
