You could use marine speakers though.

actually... any car audio speaker with a rubber surround and a poly or synthetic material for the cone would work just fine. there isn't much difference between marine and car audio these days when it comes to speakers... maybe a little more sealing on the back side. but where they're sitting in your bike... you'll be fine.

BUT... I did notice that your speakers are 2ohm... I'm thinking THAT is the reason they're so loud. check the resistance of the stock HD ones...

most Car Audio are 4ohm... some cases 8ohm (which is what home audio is) when running a lower ohm... (if I remember right... it's been 7 years since I sold and installed this shit) the speakers are gonna be louder or suck more power at the same volume...

for example take a car audio speaker that's 4ohm... hook it up in your house. it'll be louder at the same volume setting than an 8ohm home audio speaker.


looks good though.

Nice.

I got a blackberry for music and stuff on the road, music is nice when your riding. I rode a Street Glide last year and didnt like the stock speakers either. But I knew it could be remedied with aftermarket, like every other problem HD's have
