I'm not real impressed with the Hogtune speaker upgrade, I don't think they sound much better than stock! Did I get a bad set??? What are others opinions of them?

I've read great things about the HOGTUNES speakers. Most post state that they didn't need to add the amplifier. I guess the improvement in sound is noticible while riding. The speakers allow you to increase the volume while mainating sound quality. I hope their right as I just bought the speakers and I am hoping I won't need the amplifier.

The speakers arrived today. I was pleasantly surprised to see 50 watt speakers. The picture on HOGTUNES web sight shows a 45 watt speaker. The removal of the fairing cover could not have been easier. I'll install the speakers tonight and put everything back together. Daytona here I come.
