DCS/SX Direct Connect |
03/22/2008 |
Don't usually like being the first reviewer for anything, especially anything electrical on my Harley - I have often felt like the HD Beta tester for '07 FLHT parts, not always with favorable results...... That was NOT the case with the Hawg Wired Direct Connect Amp and Speakers!
I received the amp and speaker package in less than 48 hours through a local dealer, busted home and pulled the front fairing off. The amp installed neat and clean on top of the CB and XM modules. The plug and play inter-connect cables fit like a dream (the connectors are a little bulky, but HW did their best to design the loom lengths to fit in the gaps without extra wire getting in the way - Take an extra couple minutes when you are working on this portion of your install - a couple extra wire ties strategically located can save you a major headache down the road. Speakers also went in without a hitch. BOTTOM LINE: INSTALL TIME WAS UNDER 1/2 hour, excluding wipe-down and wiring / cable check time on all the other components inside the fairing. SYSTEM SOUNDS GREAT! This is the perfect compromise between the "Full-Boat" HW system and the factory Ultra Classic 4-speaker system. Run your fader control to 3/4 front speakers, and let the factory radio drive the two little 2-ohms in the rear pods. It's STEREO, not Surround Sound!
CERTAINLY A WORTHWHILE PURCHASE!!
P.S. - The guys at HW were also awesome when I called and was putting them through the 3rd-degree prior to making the purchase - They'll give it to you straight, and they clearly believe in their product = WITH JUSTIFICATION!

Thanks for the great system. I ordered the amp and speakers. They shipped fast. They installed fast. They sound bad ass. Everything was as decribed, quality, installation, and sound.
With respect to my audio bros,

HSA470 Harley To Sony Radio Install Kit |
01/29/2008 |
Hello fellow riders. I have been wanting a stereo for my FLHT for a while, but couldn't decide to go factory or aftermarket. I have been looking at all my choices and decided to go with this HSA bundle with a Sony deck and JL Audio speakers. I was amazed at the quality of the Hawg Wired kit. It was a breeze to install. The fitment of the cradle & the bezel was perfect. I had an issue with an extra ground, but the guys in tech walked me through the whole thing. The hand controls on the handle bars work great. Overall I'm very happy. From one biker to another, if you want a stereo that's fool proof, this is for you. I took a chance and I'm glad I did. This is a great package!!!!!
Ride on and rock!

SX508-60 SX Series 5.25 8 Ohm Component Speakers |
01/21/2008 |
I purchased two sets of speakers for my 2005 Harley Davidson FLHTCUI and WOW! They have the best sound quality I have heard on any motorcycle sound system. I purchased the SX508-60 (front) and BT508-40 (rear). They were an easy install and like I said the best sound ever. I am still thinking of putting an amplifier on the bike to make it sound even better.
Thanks for offering such great products and I will give your name to all of my fellow HOG members and anyone that comments about how good they sound.

I had my doubts, but your product kicks ass. The sound is as loud and as clear as I had hoped it to be.
Quiet Riot's "Bang you Head" never sounded so good at 70 mph.

Hey guys, thanks again for the great amp and speakers. An unbelievable difference. I still like to listen to the pipes but I listen to the stereo a lot more than I used to. It is especially cool when parked with a bunch of buddies bs'n or sharing a cold one and listening to some tunes. It doesn't take long before they are asking questions about what I have done to the stereo to make it sound that way. I have a 30G iPod plugged into it with about 3,000 songs downloaded. A portable Juke Box or a great afternoon or evening cruise with a lady friend. Whatever the situation calls for.
Also enjoyed the pictures you posted of my 05 Roadglide on your website. Thanks again for everything. A very worthwhile upgrade.

CX504-70 CX Series 4 Ohm Component Speakers |
09/29/2007 |
I recently installed the two channel expandable Amp and four Component Speakers on my '04 FLHTCSE. My experience was a class act from top to bottom. During my install, I accidentally cut off a molded plug on the Amp input cable (airhead mistake). I contacted Mike at Hawg Wired. He sent me a replacement ASAP free of charge. Oh, and did I mention that the overall improvement in sound, quanity and quality, is better than I expected, and that's saying a lot. It reminded me of my early experince with Car Stereo System installs... I was scrambling for my old benchmark CD's, the ones that always sound really good on a clean, high powered system.
Needless to say, I would highly recommend the experience, especially if your an old discriminating audiophile like myself.

Customer service is outstanding!!! I purchased a PSC1502 amp and a pair of CX504-70 in April 2007. Installed them and in May 2007 I started having some issues. I contacted Mike @ Hawg Wired and explained what was happening with my sound system. Mike sent me another PSC1502 to make sure that the amp was not the issuse. Mike even offered up after hour phone #'s in case help was needed working on the system. After doing some trouble shooting the issuse was with my Radio on my 2007 street glide. Now the new radio has been installed. The ORIGNAL amp was not the issue. Hawg Wired never hounded me on the status of the replacement amp. Oh yea I had the replacement amp for 9 weeks. Now that everything is working I sent back the placement that they sent me and never had to install it. Not only are the products of Hawg Wired are awesome but the entire staff are AWESOME!!!!! THANK YOU !!!.

Just looking at these speakers tells you they are high quality, but if you insist, listen to them and crank up the volume and you'll know right away you made the right choice.

I thought it would be hard to install. 1 and 1/2 hours later I can almost not hear my pipes. My wife is so pleased she can now hear what she couldn't hear before. Thanks, it's well worth the money.
