Default HD Boom Audio?

Anyone have the new Harley Davidson Boom Audio High-Performance speakers? If you do what do you think of them? I have heard all of the rest of them hog tunes ect. No need to try to sell me anything just asking for a review of the Boom speakers.

I've gottem.

They do sound better than stock but I'm not a big audiophile. I was just looking for a little better sound than stock without breaking the bank for speakers and amp etc. So far they work fine for me.

I have no personal expirience but a buddy that works at an HD dealer told me that even with his discount he was not satisfied.

ditto for me as well. they are louder, and cleaner, and that's sufficient for me.

I got them as a Christmas present. They're ok. Better than stock, but just ok. If I had to do it again I'd go with a 6 1/2" upgrade from someone else. Want to change them out, but they were a gift from my wife. Just waiting for the right time to make my move.

Thanks for the replies. I guess I need to hear them for myself in person to see if they are worth the $150 price HD is asking for them.

That's $150 per set if I saw it correctly on HD web site. Front and back if you have them will run ya $300+

I'm looking at the same set, thought $150 was a good price compared to a lot of what Harley sells?
