Me thinks a few of you are missing the point. Of course the comparison is not fair, the stage one was such a disappointment it needed to be upgraded. At $3095 Canadian to install a boom stage 2 upgrade that I’ve never heard side by side (that’s 1 additional amp taking up space in the back and 4 new speakers), it never stood a chance anyway. Neither did the $2400 Canadian + labour JMAudio system that required me to ship my radio to Arizona and lay the bike up for a month. Could be be no side by side there either.
I’m just saying that while the other systems surely would sound better too, the comparison I actually experienced was so vast that this opportunity was too good to pass up and in the end if an actual comparison of all the 600 watt systems could be done the wild boar system could very well be the best choice of all 3 systems at any price... and if not, I certainly know for sure it is definitely an upgrade from what I had.
