Default Audio on your Dyna? What to do?

I have some birthday money. I'm thinking of putting some audio on my Superglide. I see clamp on speakers from $30 to $300. What does it take money wise to get some speakers and amp or amplified speakers and tuner or to put into a I phone or MP3 that will work at 70mph (I ride with a sport shield) and not blow quickly. What works for you without breaking the piggy bank? I'm technology disabled so any help is appreciated

I listen to my exhaust and cagers trying to kill me.

You should post this in the Audio section. Those guys are very knowledgeable when it comes to bike audio

i hate the way audio systems look on a Dyna. It’s impossible to make it look like it belongs there. Unless you go with a fairing.

If I were gonna do it, I’d find the loudest compact Bluetooth speaker on the market and either zip tie it to the bars or loop Velcro under the dash and hold it to the tank. That way it’s not “permanent”....

my 2 cents

Please don't add objectionable noise to your superglide. Don't contribute to the annoyance problem.

add whatever you want on your bike.

I thought about it a bunch when I wanted to do something I went with full face helmet with bluetooth.
Listen to your tunes on the speakers inside the helmet.

Apple air pods work well but I use one in my right ear only. Dont want to miss a horn or car close by.

I know Shure sells cables with mics and Bluetooth but I know nothing about compatibility with Sena.

I just use the standard included cable (no Mic, nor BT) plugged into my phone. I don't always use them for audio or GPS. They are quite effective at reducing ambient noise so I always have them in while riding and mowing.

My son and I both use them. SE215 for us both and I also have a set of modified SE535 for more serious listening.
