Man no lie there, I started looking into those speakers, they are nice, don't know that I want to sink that much into my bike stereo though.....
I hear ya ... I saw the polished copper rings on the tweets and the polished copper dust-caps on the woofers of the HAT Legatias and it was a done deal (it matched the copper in the Autumn Haze SESG2). That was my first intro to HAT speakers - just because of the copper and it matching the paint on the bike (lol)!
Glad I found them ... terrific company ... fantastic speakers.
You can still get amazing sound without going that high $$$ in speakers. Hertz HSK's, JL Audio C5's, HAT Unity's - all are sweet sounding. I'd say the HAT Clarus line but they are $550/set retail. And while they compete with speakers in the $750 - $1K range they are still over five bills ... so that creeps into the "too much to spend on a set of speakers" category for most folks. Not that they can't afford it or anything - just that they don't see the need to do it. Also - the Clarus line from HAT are VERY heavy speakers, so putting them in the fairing isn't ideal. I'd probably go with the either the Hertz HSK's or JL C5's over the Hat Clarus for a fairing mount.
The HAT Unity's are $350 retail (I think) and offer just slightly less sound quality than the HSK's and C5's. You may want to audition a set of those as well. If you can audition all of them then you'll be able to make the best decision on what set sounds the best to your ears. Mike (mjb765) put the Unity tweeters in the stock SESG2/3 tweeter housing so they will instal w/o compromising the look of the bike. SammyJ put a set of JL C5 tweets in the stock tweeter housing as well - might want to shoot them a PM on install tips should you want to go that route (after-market tweets mounted in stock SESG2/3 tweeter housing).
Let me know if I can help - mod on!
