Hi all, I got a 2018 Streetglide and notice that the Bass frequencies out of my speakers is pretty cheesy and breaks up. So looking at folks who put actual subwoofers in their bags, that doesn't look like a direction I want to go. Any tips on getting bass sounds to, well, sound good?

You have not filled out your profile.  Are you talking about a 2018 CVO Street Glide?   They have pretty awesome OEM systems?   900 Watts.     If that's what you have then maybe you better have the system checked out?    Did you buy it new?    If so, maybe one of the channels is burnt out or maybe they have flashed the system with the wrong equalization?    I also had issues with the Speed volume adjustment and ended up just turning it off because it made the bass choppy.

Just updated profile. thanks! Yep, 2018 Streetglide. So the bass just kind of thuds, like the speaker is being overdriven, or its not big enough for the lower frequencies. BTW, I'm a musician, gigging in a band, so I know what I'd like to be hearing from them! It's going in for 1000 mile checkup soon, so I'll have them look at it. Thanks!

You'll want to run all of the settings fairly flat and remember they are not subwoofers. With that said open up your saddlebag lids and play some music at normal volumes and you'll be able to tell if the woofer portion of your rear speakers are blown or not. It is a fairly common thing unfortunately. Good luck.
