Default Audio Question

I was hoping those who have tried these before might be able to help me out, I've got a flhx and wanting to upgrade my speakers and add a amp. What would be a bigger bang for my buck.

The new hogtunes speakers and 70 watt amp along with the treeter pod or a set of the new Rokker 7.250 speakers and a J&M 250 watt amp

Thanks

You can do better than Hogtunes. I've had 'em. Wasn't impressed. They're just OK, IMO.

That's my setup. Sounds great and not terribly expensive.

Before you do either...look at the Rockford-Fosgate 4 ch. I found mines for $150.00 and Hertz Titans 6.5 inch speakers for $200.00. I think you will be happier with that setup than Hogtunes. I had Hogtunes, can't comment on J&M speakers and amp.
