Talking Ipod speakers for RKC

Has anybody used either of these systems? 3 inch Cycle Sounds Motorcycle Sound System or the Kuryakyn Sound of Chrome. I'm trying to decide on which one. A couple of questions before I start looking seriously. Quality of sound, how loud and do either one of these charge a ipod? Just want to play a ipod, no radio. Any help or opinions would be great!

Thanks

was considering the cycle sounds system last year before I sold my road king. saw it at hal's hd at the 105th the year before, it sounded good and I believe there was a kit to keep your ipod charged. Have since bought a SG and use ipod instead of radio most of the time. Ipod will play at least for 20hrs without a charge, I just charge it overnite in the wall wearever I'm staying or use 12v port installed on bike..

RUMBLE ROAD is the best!
Smaller speakers can'h handle the bass load.
Sure, smaller ones hide better & look cleaner, but if they crap out on you, why bother?

Hands down rumble roads sounds the best as they're a bigger speaker, i've installed all of the metioned items (kuryakyn, rumble road and cycle sounds), and i like the kuryakyns best as far as looks and sound.....just my $.02
