Best bang for sound system buck ??
Hello Gang,
New to the forum. I have an '06 Ultra with the stock HK system.
I desperately want to upgrade the speakers and/or amp . Does this model have an amp on it, or just a higher powered head unit ??
I really want something that I can CRANK up , with very little distortion.
Price is not really a concern, but I'd like to stay under a dime.
Thanks in advance !

You'll get a ton of opinions and there's lots to read. Two plus years ago, I was where you are now. I read, read and read more and asked lots of questions. Back then I bought a Hawg Wired system and eventually sold the bike. I just bought an EG Classic and went right back and bought the very same Hawg Wired system and got a great deal on it IMHO.
Nuff said. Pics attached... look at the comparison between the stock speaker and Hawg Wired speaker.

I did the same as Brypink:
Head unit: Pioneer DEH-P4000ub (used on ebay $60 along with XM receiver)
Pioneer GEX-P920XM XM receiver (came with head unit)
Amp: ARC Audio KS mini (PM Firecap501 for pricing)
Speakers: ARC FD5025 for the upper and KS60?? 6.5" for the lower fairing
Hand Controls: PAC module from Firecap501 ($140)

price wise, anything specifically built for a HD is over priced......good example is hawg wired. dont get me wrong, its a great product, just over priced. i went with a alpine pdx 4.100. i got it way cheaper than the 300 watt hawg wired amp and really sounds clean. I also have a alpine deck and as of right no have 2 6x9's in the bags and 5.25 infinity kappa speakers in the dash and so far so good. I might change the infinity's later on and go with alpine r series coaxials, but not sure yet. Im happy with my setup right now.
Bang for the buck, I'd go with that mini arc amp, and just pick aftermarket 5.25 speakers.
