I'm with you, I like the HK unit and how it operates with the finger controls. I went with Hogtunes "3 way for the Freeway" setup. Cost is $575

1. This adds an amp that you velcro to the top of your HK unit inside the fairing.
2. Replaces your 4 speakers that you have now.
3. Adds two more speakers in the lower fairing pointing up at you. (good visual at link below)
4. The new added amp drives the front 4 speakers and the HK unit will drive the rear two.

I'm very happy with this setup. I think this is the best bang for the buck (less than a dime).

The link is http://www.hogtunes.com/FLSK.html
I found the same setup at Rideshack.com for $125 less...

I don't have the Hogtunes set-up nor am I affiliated with them in any way...in fact I went with FireCap and ARC gear for my setup......BUT $449 for 6 speakers, an amp, lower fairing conversion kit and all necessary hardware is a hell of a deal

Set aside there is no sub...this system can rival many car systems.
I'm probably gonna work with this set-up but the head unit I'm using is the

Alpine IDA-X100M Marine Digital Media Receiver!

Ride safe, Mike
