Boom audio question
« on: May 03, 2013, 06:13:45 PM »

Ok. I have a 2012 FLTRXSE skunk. I took it for the first ride last Sunday, ( bought it used ) and the radio sytem sucked on the freeway. All I heard was wind noise. Would a different windshield help, or should I pony up for a new AMP and speakers? Thinking Arc KS125.4 and Focals.

I'm glad I did the arc and the Focals.    I promise you that you will never be happy with the stock stuff.  If that's what I can call it.  The upgrade is huge.  :2vrolijk_21:
