Going in the batwing, using stock radio and SS PN4.520 (2 & 4-ohm capable) amp.

Biketronics 2-way 7.1" BT7P1 4-ohm $250 w/free shipping
J&M Audio 3-way 7.25" HCSK-7252GTM 2-ohm $162 w/free shipping

Power rating is near the same on both and Biketronics has lifetime warranty but I don't see anything listed for J&M. I'd like as much bass as possible (I know you can't get much out of the batwing and using polyfil) and I'm leaning toward BT7P1 but wanted opinions if anyone has experience with either or both. I've done some searching but haven't found where anyone puts these side by side for a comparison. It could be that I'm not putting in the right search names though.

 

No experience with JM's but the BT's are loud..and ya not much base either way but clear as a bell at 80...I am also running the SS amp and Sony head unit...

 

quenther,,,,,,,

what is your amplifier rating in RMS power per channel ?,,,,,,,,

 

The Soundstream 4.520 is rated at 130 watts per channel at 2 ohms, 100 watts a channel at 4 ohms.

 

 

John, what is your warranty as I can't find anything listed? That is huge and one of the main reasons I am thinking of going with the BT7P1 even though yours are much less expensive.

 

BT7.1 without question.

 

John, can you give me an answer on your warranty and why I should choose your speakers over the Biketronics?

 

You shouldn't. J&M is WAY overpriced for their quality. They are only a little better than the BOOM or Hogtunes stuff. A set of Polks and a decent amp will blow away a J&M system. And trust me when I say the Titans are a power house. Great Low end also. I wish I could get my set into my 14'. Being I can't I'm probably going to order 4 of the Titan 6.5s. If I do, I'll probably be selling my 7.1's here.

 

I understand the BT's have lifetime warranty, but is that only for original owner? Or, does the warranty roll over to the next owner?
