Just wondering what a used set of Kappa 62ix speakers is worth.

I have midrange hearing loss. If there's background noise I have a hard time hearing people, so vocals while playing tunes on the bike are difficult to make out. I know a few years ago Hogtunes used to advertise their speakers as having an improved midrange to overcome background noise. I was thinking about giving them a try

Someone just listed a set of Kappa 62.11i speakers for $125. I'll give that a shot

Interesting considering they were discontinued in 2018 I believe. Surprised you found a listing. Possible new old stock? Never mind, just found it, "not available" discontinued.

Good thing those aren't the ones I'm selling, lol.

Thanks for the feedback, ride safe.

Looks like they sell for about 170 new, so I think your price might be a good starting point.

Shipped, I think so. I'll list them on FleaBay also.

Thanks, Jim

Can't hear them clearly anyway (mid range hearing loss). Hogtunes are supposed to be optimized for midrange clarity? At least that's what they used to say. If it ends up same thing or worse, so be it

Have no experience with losing hearing in certain freq ranges, but I do have some hearing loss in general in one ear.

There are better speakers than hogtunes.

There's also another company that states that their stuff is the best you can get for your Harley Davidson motorcycle and we all know that's a lie too. I have never, and I repeat NEVER, heard anyone bragging about being able to hear their Hogtunes while riding. Good luck on your search.
