Easy: 125.2 and Hertz 6.5's. I have the 125.2 with different 6.5's and it's outstanding. HW's amp is about 1/2 the power and the speakers are 5.25's.
Not saying the HW isn't excellent; but, the 125.2 is at least as good sound quality with more power; and, ditto the speaker comparison--never heard anyone say anything but excellent things about the Hertz.
FWIW, the 125.2 is now shown on Arc's website at $279 list.

From what I understand, the J&M amp is the same as the Arc amp. I'd choose the Hertz speakers over the J&M's without hesitation. J&M's aren't bad, but at least to my ear, the Hertz are much better.
Definetly the ARC set up. Have Hawgwired now, good system but I changed the speakers to J&M, much more sound. Have a friend who I actually recommended the ARC to, he blows me away...

Have you guys seen this new BX 125.2 Mini by Arc?
Supposed to provide better bass.
Check it out.

Also, the Hertz 6.5" speakers.....are these the same Hertz that Biketronics is labeling Hertz Titan XL?
If so, Biketronics is putting a Lifetime Warranty on their label, as opposed to Hertz putting a 1 yr. Warranty on their packaging.
However, the Hertz from Biketronics are being listed as 3ohm speakers...Hertz lists them as 4ohm.
WTH???
