Default Any major drawbacks of the Boom Audio?

Aside from the price... and the fact that I could probably get a better system at 1/3 the price, are there any major drawbacks to HD's Boom Audio? I like listening to my tunes, but passenger says they can't hear them so it just bugs. One buddy really likes his, another says the Boom sux. Haven't been able to hear it in person yet. Thought I'd throw the question out to you...

Got all boom audio on my CVO I like it a lot but that's coming over from a 09 FLHX with just a pair of j&m 7.25's lol. FWIW ANYTHING is an upgrade over stock those things suck. Good luck no matter what you choose!

If you can get a better system at 1/3 the price go for it.

Im running the Boom RG Fairing replacement speakers and the RG Amp and IMO it sounds great, Ill probably add Glove Box Speakers to my Lowers at some point but not because I need them more as something to add for a project.

Got the parts for 20% off
Boom!™ Audio Fairing Amplifier Kit - Road Glide® $ 399 - 20% = $ 319
Boom!™ Audio High Performance Boom!™ Bagger Road Glide® Fairing Speakers $ 149 - 20% = $ 119.00 total spent was $$438 and the install was plug and play

Hog Tunes kit is 439 -599
