Default Hogtunes vs. J&M Speakers

Any opinions on which replacement speaker will work/sound the best in my '07 FLHTC with stock radio. There is only about a 20 buck difference in price but I only want to do the upgrade once. I appreciate any input.

They are both exc speakers, but Hogtunes is by far the best for cust service,and if you want to really upgrade ,add a tweeter pod.

I had both on my Streetglide. Had a problem with the Hogtunes amp and the pre-sale customer service dried up pretty quick. I will not purchase Hogtunes again, but I was very pleased with the J&M speakers.

I have never used Hogtunes, so no help there. BUT I just installed J&M 7.25 speaker package and I am very happy with it.

listened to both prior to purchase. IMO J&M sounded better. Their customer service is some of the best I've experienced...immediate within-the-half-hour responses.

I have no personal experience with the HogTunes speakers and just completed the upgrade to the J&M 7.25" speakers on my FLTR. I'm VERY satisfied with the improvement and got great customer service from Dr. V-Twin (and the ArcAudio amp folks too....but you didn't ask about an amp).

Just putting in my two cents worth I put in the Hogtunes speakers and the tweeter pod and what a difference. Quick install and quality sound!!
