what kinds of options do i have if i want to upgrade my street glide to 6.5" speakers? i really dont know much about audio beyond the basic concepts of installation


1) what makes the speakers sold at J&M/Biketronics/Hogtunes/etc special? are they weatherproof? why do they cost minimum $200+ for a pair as opposed to car speakers?

2) why not use car speakers? what risks are their in installing some regular alpine/kicker/rockford fosgate/whatevers?


3) is it feasible to upgrade the speakers now, and add an amp later if i decide i need more? or would that create complications?


my issue with the stock speakers isn't volume, they're plenty loud, but alot of the music i listen to sounds awful on them, even at a standstill some artists are borderline un-listenable.
 
I'm no expert, but.....
(1) most are waterproof hassle free direct install kits and anything Harley related will be over priced
(2) only downfall would be there not waterproof
(3) yes you can, but without sufficient power there will be minimal gain to upgrading speakers
That is just my opinion
