I wouldnt get too excited about Hog Tune speakers. I installed all 4 in my Ultra and was very disappointed with the bass response. I'd look into this a bit further before you spend your money

I had hogtunes in my 07 street glide and they were ok. I have an 09 ultra now and I went to best buy and picked up a set of infinity 52.9i and they sound just as good as the hog tunes did for a little less money. I paid around $109 for the hogtunes and got the infinity's for $77, I really wouldn't turn around for the difference in them.

Did you have the HogTunes amp installed as well?

I currently have J&Ms and I am adding the HogTunes amp and rear speakers to my King Tourpac. I can hear my stereo pretty god now even at 75-80mph and the amp will just be a bonus.

+1 on hogtunes. if nothing else, you can crank up tunes at speed and not distort as bad as stock speakers. would like to try the amp but will have to wait til my company gets their head out of their ***. (gm)
