Default Upgraded head hunit

OK, So I decided on this, Sony MEX-XB100BT along with the BT1005X radio install kit.

While I am waiting on delivery, What would you guy's recommend for 4 speakers (batwing and tour pac) and possibly an amp? I don't want to get crazy here but I def want it to sound nice. Maybe 4 of the Infinity Kappa 52.11I and a CV B54 amp? I'm guessing this will be better than stock. BTW, I will have a real nice stock HK head unit for sale soon!

Great decision on the HU! (I'm a Sony Guy) lol Anyway your best Budget set up is going to be the Soudstream 1000D amp. With the infinity 62.11i speakers in the fairing and the Kicker KSC674 speakers in the pods. I always recommend the SS 1000D because no matter what speakers you buy 4 ohm or 2 ohm this amp will push em. Gives you a lot of room for expandability. You will only have to buy an amp once.

When upgrading your speakers you always want to upgrade to 6.5 speakers or larger with a powerful amp. The 5.25 speakers won't make the cut. You can also pre-order the Biketronics 7.1's for a great price right now with the forum discount. Excellent speakers for your Ultra!!!

OK, thanks ... The Kickers for the rear are on my shopping list. Which SS amp ? The PN4 1000D ?
The BT 7.1's Are 199 ? I tried the HDForums as a coupon code but the price didn't change. Thanks for the help !

Just call Bill at Biketronics for the speakers. He will take good care of you!! One of my favorite guys to do business with Lol!! Yes the soundstream PN4.1000D is the amp you want.
