Music on a Road King

Music on a Road King
Bought an '07 Road King...LOVE IT! But, I'm envious of baggers with fairings and their music!
I've seen what HD has with the handle bar speakers and amp...been told the quality of the tunes is crappy at road speeds/volume levels...
Love to hear your suggestions short of "buy another bike" or "put a fairing on it"
I found a windshield mount stereo at J&P cycles called a Reckless Rock Hoodz for $500

Anyone have any first or second knowledge about this stereo? I don't want it to look ghetto and take away from the great look our bike has and I don't want crappy sounding music either.
Thx!

iphone 6 plus, max memory available, rokform phone holder, sena 20s. I have access to 16,000 songs plus audiobooks stored on my iphone and fm radio. I had the handlebar remote control but its not that convenient.
My sound is outstanding, plenty loud and I'm plenty deaf. Speakers mounted in my bell half shell.
I don't want all that stuff on my road king, windshield yes, fairing no.

LG Tone Earbuds and Spotify on my phone. All the songs I could ever want, no matter what mood, great sound quality, and it blocks out some of the wind noise and valve train ticking. They will also read out a text message to you in your ear while you're riding. AND......you don't have to **** of everyone in town as you ride through with you speakers blasting.

earbuds are gonna be your best bet.
I personally dont run them but on longer rides listining to some tunes is great. I ended up throwing a sound system on the bike and im pretty happy with it.
Saddlebag speakers with some speaker pods hanging on my crash bar hooked up to a bluetooth amp that gives me control over the tunes playing from my iphone.
theres plenty of loud road kings out there, maybe not very many on this site though. Depends on much you want to spend what type of looks you want and what youre willing to compromise.
You can get some good sound, but the fairing will almost always sound better.

Mount my iPhone on handkbars with Ram, then can use navigation. Like not have wires going to my helmet, nor the clutter of speakers. But, f you must have speakers, my dealer has on display Kurycrapn and they sound pretty good.
