Default Hog Tunes or Biketronics?

Looking to upgrade the audio system on my Street Glide and looking for some help to make the right decision. There is a substantial price difference and I want to make sure I get my moneys worth. So, lets hear hear folks, which one should I go with??

I'm assuming the biketronics is the better choice?

I bought a lot of different amp/speaker setups, got rid of them all and found the quality/price/sound I wanted when I ended up with the ARC Audio equipment which I love now.

I have the biketronics on my street glide and they sound good when listening to fm stations but are great with the iPod plugged in.

Merry Christmas to all!

I have the J&M's on my softail. 2 sets, one on the crash bar and one on the bars. I am adding Cycle Sounds to my new bags whenever they get here.

As far as baggers are concerned, everyone at the shop run the J&M 7.25"'s and their 250 W amp with the Hogtunes tweeter pod. This is a great system and the sound is incredible. Here are links to the J&M amp and speakers.

7.25" speakers

I am thinking I am going to sell one of my sets of the J&M handlebar speakers once I add my Cycle sounds, so if you are interested let me know. Retail is $499, I will sell them for $350.
Here you can see my speakers on the bars and crash bar.
