I have a full Cycle Sounds system with 4ch amp and 4 speakers. Their customer service is awesome. You talk to the owner and his support is great Call them at (866) 427-2346. Adding an amp is very easy. Also I am not sure if those speakers will fit in the 14+ speaker pods.

Gee, you're going to get a hundred answers/suggestions on this. Here's my 2 cents. Take a look at Sounds Custom, at http://soundzcustomz.com. Pick what you want or give them a call and tell them what you're looking for. They are great folks and have the knowledge.

This, and haven't heard anything bad about them. All depends on your budget. Adding an amp is really pretty easy, and as stated above ask if they will fit in the speaker pods before you buy them.
 
I must be the only one BUT .... I installed the Boom speakers and with the flash update I did myself it sounds pretty damned good. Don't get me wrong, I don't feel as if I'm in a concert hall but I can hear it fine at any speed and it doesn't distort. Easily worth the $300.00 (installed) I paid.

Question, just got my bike out of the shop. RF amp and the 6.5 stage 1 booms. Music was playing fine til I got home. I could tell it was too much bass, and before I knew the sound cut off. No sound at all, radio or Bluetooth. Does it just need a reset? I cut the bike off and back on, still no sound

I was told when you update your radio software(1.19.9) it kills certain functions on aftermarket amps. And it removes the navigation and blue tooth options.

I haven't upgraded the software. I literally went for a ride after I picked it up, headed home. Parked in garage, left music on while I was wiping it down, and the sound just went out. No sound at all, radio or otherwise

If it were me, I'd take off the fairing to see that the amp was working and getting power. I am able to just change a couple connections and bypass my RF amp and use the HU. If you do that, you can see if the amp is somehow not working.

When you say bypass, what exactly do you mean. Not really versed in areas of electronics lol

Check your connections, it might be as simple as the speaker connections to the amp coming unseated.
On the bypass issue- instead of plugging your speakers in to the amp, plus them in to the head unit- might need to disconnect the harness from the amp (that connects to the head unit)
Did you get a manual with your amp? My arc amp has two small lights that will blink the status of the amp- all good, too much power, overheating, short in system, etc.

Turns out it was a blown fuse. The tech bumped it up from a 15 amp to a 20 amp. This fuse was under the seat up toward the gas tank. I'm assuming it the fuse for the amp
