Anyone that did Soundz Audio on the newer bikes, did your bike saddlebag get freed up of an amp? I checked out Soundz last year at Sturgis and almost did their 4 speaker system. While there I forgot to ask if they just run 1 big amp in the fairing? I'm thinking they do. I'd like some of the space back lol, but also want a fit & finish that looks as close to factory as possible. Which from seeing some of their install did look good.
I'm only slightly contemplating doing 6x9's in the bags with their kit. I wonder how much more power/benefit you get out of them? Sounds like it probably is a Rockford Fosgate lid kit. Not real keen on cutting my CVO lids and deviating from factory finish. anyone else here do their 6x9's (or even someone else kit) and regret it? I absolutely don't want my lids to leak. That would pee me off and the boss as she's always cramming stuff we usually need in there lol.
I liked the carbons up front and irons in the bags. My wife actually liked it with irons all the way around best. Just shows how different ears can be. I have been talking on facebook with Sounds (Peter) and one of the HD dealerships appears to be doing installs for them still. Unsure of pricing yet or install cost. At Sturgis it was about $2k installed, which is about my personal limit I'd spend. I know another dealer close to me was doing the free install, but they are no longer an authorized dealer for some reason, so I might call them and find out why. Hoping to still get it done for $2k installed. If not, probably won't do it.
Anyone have any new info to share about them? Likes or dislikes? I'm not interested in putting together my own setup or anything similar to that. This is only about Soundz mainly. I already had a few White Trash Superstars on another (crap) HD forum give me unwanted or needed advice about how to spend my money.
Happy hump day!
load 97.......I have had SOUNDZ in 2 bikes now, a 2009 CVO RG and my current 2018 CVO RG, good friend with Peter & Maddie...great people. I went with their 1 amp powering my 6 speakers (4 - Iron 65 and 2 - Iron 57) so yes I removed the amp in the saddlebag. They did have to cut thebasket in the saddlebag lids as their magnet is HUGE compared to the Boom 2.....was hesitant also but never any issues with it leaking.
the price they tell you is an installed price, never any labor charges. I am not sure where you are located but get with Peter to see if he has dealers near you.
Do it right the first time with SOUNDZ, you won't regret it.
Stay safe!
