Dwhite ,,,
I can understand some of your apprehension, but when you see the engineering and thought that has gone into both products, and the resulting performance,, it may be easier to understand ,,,,
the J&M 7.25" speaker kit is NOT just a pair of speakers, it is an entire speaker kit, including professionally molded adapter rings, custom made grills with mounted tweeter and midrange, top quality attachment hardware ,,,, even specially die-cut pre-gummed acoustic foam pads for the inside of your fairing ,,,,
the J&M 250w amplifier kit is not just an amplifier thrown into a box for sale ,,,, the J&M kit includes custom made SS mounting brackets, top quality hardware and a custom made plug-n-play wiring harness ,,,, most of which is currently all made by hand at our shop in Tucson ,,,,,
those who have previously purchased our speaker kit, know that they are worth the money ,,,, so will the folks that purchase our amp kit later this month ,,,,

The specs on the new JM Amp look like the specs on the Elf Audio amp I have as well as the ARC & The Wet Sounds. Not pointing this out to be a dick..just stating what I see. I have 2 - 6.5" 4 ohm Speakers on my SG now - that is 70w RMS x 2 on the amp - The Elf Audio Speakers I have are 90w RMS each - so Im not tweeking them out. I am happy with my purchase and I am sure people who buy or will buy Johns products, the ARC, etc will be happy too.

Hey, Thanks for all the quick replies.... I like the Hogpod add on but I'm afraid it will take away from custom paint work I have on the inner fairing... I am also looking into aftermarket radio's with retractable GPS screens... I'm just not sure how will these will fair if they get wet.
Great Board! Glad I joined.

Stereo upgrade
Just finished mine up Replaced everything. Alpine 9883 IPod HU, ARC 125.2 Mini amp, HERTZ 165 HCX 6.5" Speakers and 6.5" adapters, Hogtunes Tweeter pod and the Hawgwired retro kit. Plug and play and va va va voooooooooom when it comes to sound.
Get a hold of FIRECAP501 (501 must be the Levi jeans he wears) He will make sure your system ROCK! For a 2 speaker system and 2 tweeters this blows most 4 and 6 speaker set ups out of the water. Firecap501 and I put this little mother together and all I can say is HOLY %$#@!
At 80+ aftermarket pipes in a pack of 10 or more bikes its like sitting in your living room listening to your home BOSE system. My non bagger brothers love it because now 4 bikes back they finally have music too. In fact I get music requests all the time now.
FIRECAP501 enjoyed working with you on this project and I know a few brothers saving pennies now for their conversion.
Also for the weather/water proofing I went with the biketronics RG cover and just happened to have single sided sticky 1/2" rubber tape and put about 5 laps around the face piece and it seals it up perfectly (no water worries here).
Subdoc1
2009 Street Glide Dark Blue Pearl
Detachable tour pack with Spoiler light
Saddle bag spoiler lights
Alpine 9883 I pod HU (Ipod in R saddle bag)
Hawgwired Conversion kit (Awesome)
ARC 125.2 Mini Amp (Clean sound)
HERTZ 6.5" HE Speakers (Only way to go)
Hogtunes Tweeter Pod (Nice add on and sounds good too)
Chromed out
Rush Pipes
Multiple seat variations

Plus 1000! Give Firecap a PM. He's not married to a particular product but he will give you sound advice based upon what you want and your budget. He stands behind what he sells. I am very happy with my system but If and when I want more I will be calling him again!
