I would Like to upgrade my rear speaker pods for a stock radio on a 2004 Ultra Classic. I currently have the J&M 5 1/2 inch they sold a few years ago and now I see them advertise a newer set with mid and tweeter but what I really need is more bass. Any ideas?

The new J&M 7.25" speakers will give you more bass over the 5.25" speakers you have now. J&M does have a newer upgradede rear speaker as well that they just released recently.

J&M is also working on a new amp to be released in the first quarter of 2010 that is designed to work with their new 7.25" speakers which should sound really good!

Not just yet. J&M's release date is tentatively December 1 for the Road Glide 7.25" speakers.

We don't advise running these speakers with any amp other than what J&M will be releasing in a couple months. While the Biketronics amps are great performers, neither of them is compatible with the specs of the J&M speakers.
