Ok, so the consensus is Polk 6x9's for the saddle bag lids. I want the most kick *** speakers. MY daddy always said: "Don't do a lame-o half assed job, do it right the first time" (actually I said that, my dad doesn't talk like that).
Are hertz speakers marine grade? They seem to be more high end, any comments?

What would be the most kick *** for you may not be the most kick *** for others. Everyones ears are different. Best thing man is to listen to as many as you can and pick from there IMHO. I love my rockford fosgates while other people with a similar setup running the same speakers dont.
Problem is I wanted to get them in this winter, around here people have their bikes in hibernation.
Well tell my about your setup. Have you got the bagger nation setup? I was looking at their stuff today, they have a package deal with pretty much everything I need plug and play. Only I'd like to go with 500w rather than their 300.
I was also thinking about mids in the inner fairing.

Harley Boom Audio fairing speakers, bag lids, bag speakers, amp, and I-pod control. It sounds amazing. All plug and play. I like the way the H-D lids look vs the other options. I'm sure there are other options out there that when parked will sound better to a trained ear, but for me, good enough.

Their 500W amp is the arc audio KS125.4 amp with a J&M sticker on it.

yes ,, the J&M amplifier will drive the Polk speakers just fine, as with most any other brand of speaker ,,,,, I also responded to your questions via email yesterday & we DO appreciate your business ,,,,
Pc Pain ,,,,,,
the J&M 500w amplifier IS similar to the Arc Audio 500w amp internally, but externally, the J&M amp is smaller dimensionally, making it the only amplifier of it's power rating, that will fit inside the fairing of the Harley bat-wing or roadglide fairing ,,,,,
