We are NOT a custom chrome dealer.

We recommend what we feel is the best bang for the buck and what has the highest quality for the dollar. That's all. Nothing more, nothing less. If we wouldn't put it in our own bikes, we would NEVER recommend it to our customers. Plain and simple. It isn't always about the money. Those on the forum that know us have figured that out by now.

I'm done with this Shawn, I've bought from you before but to state Hawg Wired is inferior to all the other systems you sell is bullshit, do a search on this and the other forums you post on and you will see nothing but positive comments on Hawg Wired, for now on you are right and I want to publicly say you are the end all be all of Harley knowledge, if you say it then it is Gospel, I will forget my 33 years of riding and testing products, you are all knowing

Okay guys, stop with the pissing match, the bottom line is this is a subjective subject and everybody's going to have their own and differing opinions plain and simple. That doesn't make anybody right or wrong, it just is what it is. I've never heard the Hawg Wired system but have heard rave reviews about them. Personally I didn't consider it because I just didn't want to dump more money than necessary for a nice, loud, quality system, and I don't regret my purchase.

You are right. I don't want to go back and forth and start a war. I was just posting my experience and I admit, it did get out of hand for no reason. I think we are done here. No real reason to keep this going. Let's sit back and laugh about this now. Life is way too short to argue.

Thanks!

Shawn

Apparently,................you misread my post. I thought that in previous Hawg Wired threads, that one thing that always came up was the lifetime warranty. Perhaps I was wrong.

Is there a difference in the warranties between the two ??

If so, this could be a deal breaker for those interested.

The more info, the better for everyone.

The J & M speakers come with a lifetime warranty as well. I'm not sure about the amp, but I am sure about the speakers.

Am I missing something here? I can get the J&M speakers and amp for $559.00 and the Hawg wired for $579.00 for my 2010 SG how is that so much more expensive?

I think there is a lot of good speaker and amp combos out there......pick one and go with it.
I was ready to order J&M speakers, until I was at the HD. A guy pulled up and I asked him what speakers he was running....He said J&M.

That was enough to make me look in a different direction.

One thing I do know...... Stock speakers are junk.

Grandpa had a better radio in the barn, and that was AM.
