Default I live in Mount Prospect!

I am running Hertz 6.5" speakers in my fairing with Hertz 5.25" speakers in my lowers with a Litebox 4 channel amp. The amp is the same as the ARC 125.4 but it cost much less. It did take a little modification to fit it in the fairing though. Let me know if you want to hear!! IT ROCKS!!!

Default What to do

Running 8 sspeaker
Amp: Alpine PDX 4.100 (for sale)
Inner Fairing: Hertz Hi-Energy 6.5 speakers

Let me know what you think
Oh Yeah this is before I revamp and go with 10 speakers and a 6 channel Amp ... Swap the inner fairing speakers for 6x9's & add 6x9's to the saddlebag lids!
