The new J & M speakers (fronts and rears) were delivered on Sat afternoon, installed this morning followed by a test ride this afternoon. They perform as I thought they would based on the reviews. They basically blow the stock system away. This is exactly what I was hoping for. Super easy install. Great packaging and instructions. No need for an amp. MHO.

Like I said before, some people want that audiophile perfection and will spend thousands on amps, speakers, woofers, tweeters and flux capacitors so they can generate 80,000 jigawatts for their Johnson Rod extentions. This upgrade is not that. It is however, IMHO, a serious improvement at a fair price and the install is so easy a caveman could do it.
If you have never had your outer fairing off before, I'd suggest going to the Biketronics Sticky at the top of the touring forum and go through the pictorial fairing removal instructions. Last but not least, make sure to protect surfaces for fairing removal, like socks on the passing lamps, towel on the front fender, etc. Good Luck!

Yes it is a HUGE improvement. But I still think it's important for eveyone to understand that this is still just a $349 four speaker modification that instantly makes the crappy stock system a WHOLE lot better.

Used the J & M Grills. Thought about using the stock grill but decided I liked the J & M look better. From what I see, the only way to use the stock screens would be to simply place them on top of JM grill / adapter assembly before installing onto the fairing.
If you go back to Post No. 60 on this thread you can get some better info from Janusc. Good Luck

John over at J&M said that they are releasing an amp specifically for the new speakers in the first quarter of 2010. My advice to everyone is to wait because most of the amps out there are not compatible with 2 ohm speakers or have too much power and will damage and/or blow out the speakers.
In the meantime until J&M releases they own amp, enjoy your speakers. We are not that far away from the first quarter of 2010.
Dr. V-Twin carries the entire J&M line of products and we will be stocking their new amp as soon as it is released. Stay tuned...
Thanks!
