Jacques, I picked the best speakers I could find and worked backwards from there. The 4 ohm component speakers from Hawg-Wired have external crossover(it really helps separate the midrange/treble) and a massive magnet. You will need an external amp to drive them. Look on the bright side, mount the amp on top of the radiohead like older models and your 07 can have a removable tourpak as well.

Sure, HW seems the better product for our bikes but change all the line is $$$$ !
Later, probably, I'll be interested for change the design of my bike with the removable tourpack.

Now; I look only if it's possible for a better sound with the J&M.

Thanks

By the way  Hog Wired makes 2 ohm speakers :
Hog wired BT502-40   109.95
BT502-40 Specifications
2 ohm, 25mm voice coil
40 Watts RMS, 120 Watts Peak (Rated - 40 Watts)
1" PEI dome coax-mounted tweeter
5.25" polypropylene mid-range cone
8 oz. magnet with rubber cover

If you go with thier amp upgrade you can run the 4 ohm , and their ultra premium speakers.
Don't run the 4 ohms unless you do the amp upgrade

The standard 4 ohms:
BT504-50 Specifications   109.95

4 ohm, 25mm voice coil
50 Watts RMS, 150 Watts Peak (Rated - 50 Watts)
1" PEI dome coax-mounted tweeter
5.25" polypropylene mid-range cone
8 oz. magnet with rubber cover

I am a HW dealer and need to clarify a few things.
The 2 ohm BT series speakers are not being sold at this time. Hawg-wired has some new 2 ohm units that will be released soon that have great performance over stock.


For those that have the 04-05 SEEG's you can run the 4 ohm CX series speakers without the added amp. The SEEG radio has a built in additional amp that utilizes a 4 ohm output.

Thanks for the clarification , I was going off the Hawg-Wires site info ..

I'll be waiting for the new ones as I'm running an 07 FLHX

Jim, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Just took my 05 SEEG for a nice trip today and the new HW speakers, amp and radio blew me away.
I had hoped for a big difference but it is so much better than I'd imagined. At 85 mph in heavy truck traffic with a full face on, the sound was clear as can be with all the volume I will ever need. (blew away cars around me and got quite a few  )
Incredible improvement over the original POS.
Thanks again.

ME TOO! Thanks jim for all your help and the discount too. No trouble hearing it NOW!! Had to put the the steak because im hungry. For those that dont know i was born after dinner and have been one meal behind my whole life

[Ceej]

HW - there is no substitute - SMOKIN! Got the whole component and amp setup from Jim a while back - thanks man - this rocks. I Run it with a portable XM Inno which is low on output, I have the Amp at 1/2 way and can crank the volume up to 1/2 way and the cars next to me at a stop light can't hear the pipes at idle!

[Dawgtired]

Got my amp and 4 speakers from Jim on Wednesday. Started the install Thursday and finished it this morning. What a difference! Thanks Jim, for the help, it's a great product and makes a world of difference.

Need a quick recommmendation I am getting an 08 SE ultra in two weeks and want to upgrade the sound and make the TP removable. I will keep the factory radio and probably only have the TP off about a third of the time. So for the most part I will run a 4 spkr setup. First question will the HW amp work with the factory headunit? If it doesnt will I hear much of a difference by just changing the 4 factory spkrs to the HW 2 ohm replacements? Any help is appreciated!

One of our members has a great report/pictorial on installing the Hawg Wired system on his bike. The bike is actually an '05 SEEG, but he has upgraded the radio to the Harmon Kardon unit that will be on your bike I believe.

Check out these threads..

"Hawg Wired" 150 watt in fairing amplifier kit.

New Hawg Wired component speakers.

Also check in our Vendor Discount Board as one of the members here offers discount on Hawg Wired Products.

If you have any other questions you can PM the member w/the discounts and I'm sure he'll see this thread also.

The HW amps works seamlessly with the factory radios. The 2 0hm replacements are not officially out yet althought they are listed on the HW website. If you try to order them they wll show as back orderered. The new 2 ohm speakers will be out in the next couple of weeks and are better than the stockers. (one of our members here is beta testing some for me). You can call me with any questions, I will PM my number.....

I just got an 08 CVO Ultra, and also plan to remove the TP and switch to HW amp.  I was planning on doing the removable TP and removing the rear amp this weekend, and installing the HW amp next month or so.  I was told the radio will not work once the rear amp is removed, unless I add the HW amp.  Is this true.  Could you send me your number, so I can call you and discuss the install.

Thanks
