Default A couple stereo questions.

2015 street glide special stock. I have a question why is it that when I listen to music over my Bluetooth from my iPhone 7 that it is about half volume as compared to the radio.

I want to just upgrade my speakers. What would be the best ones to get and do I need to have the dealer flash the stereo to do this?

Thanks.

Set the volume all the way up on your phone after you connect , my Samsung g8 defaults to about half volume after it disconnects , need to find a way/setting to over ride that ...

Radio or iPod via USB port will sound way better than iPhone 7 via Bluetooth or USB - I used all and my old iPod destroys the iPhone in terms of loudness and quality of sound. I honestly have no idea why though!

Do you have any issues with your s8 and the infotainment center? I can't get mine to play through USB. When I plug it in it looks for local music and I can't get Google Play Music to stream through it. Also with Bluetooth it will play Google Play Music streaming but won't show any artists name or track titles unless I download the album first.
