Default Biketronics verses Hawg Wired

Its time to get rid of the cheap broken down HK radio in my Ultra. Wanting to go to a Alpine marine radio. Question is about whos controls work the best. I will want to go to 6.5" speakers and like what I see with Hawg Wired speakers but biketronic control modual seems better. Any comment?

interested in this also. I know there is a small delay in both but never have talked to someone that has used both. I have hawg wired amps and they are beyond amazing. So I would think all there products would be pretty awesome. for the prices of these kits they better be good.

BT kits retain AVC if that is a priority. Lifetime warranty and great customer service. I can't remember reading anything bad about either though. You'll be satisfied either way.

I like the HW kit better as it is all metel and well made , BT has AVC if you want that you need to use their kit , the handle bar controls work equally well with both kits

This is probably a stupid question. What is AVC?

AVC = Automatic Volume Control ( increases volume with speed )
