Just 6 months later I was night riding stop to get coffee and as
I pulled off the road the speakers just stop working. I had them check
by car stereo dealer and they told me the 8w speakers would not hold up to
100w amp. I didn't know the speakers were 8w intill I opened them up.
Im just now giving my review do to me being out on the road all year.These things freaking rock literally! They get as loud as you want. My hint: crank the amplifier's volume all the way up and use the mp3 player's volume control to fine-tune it. Works perfectly. Others have said the amp gets hot: I can vouch for that. It does. Just give it room to breath or be ready to keep a light touch on it when turning off. This thing basically never drains your battery. I have left it on for a couple days and had *NO* issues with starting. I mounted these behind my windshield (as others have done) and I only had to use some thread-lock to keep them on.
As far as being waterproof: I can also vouch for that! My neighbor and I rode through a freaking thunderstorm across the entire state of Kentucky and I had these things rocking the whole time! I would have lost my mind if it wasn't for the stereo keeping my mind off the fact that I was soaked...
He was blown away when we'd stop for gas and I still had my speakers blaring.
Buy these bad boys and you will not be disappointed. :)I have Goldwing with built in sound and a 1994 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 cruiser. I like long distance rides and wanted music on the Vulcan. After listening to a $350 system on a friends bike that sounded like crap I began a search for good cycle sound. I did have a special challenge since the older bikes have barely enough charging system to keep them running. After reading a few reviews I decided to get the 100w Shark system. Delivery from this seller was excellent. The amp was a little larger that I expected so you have to find a place to put it. The electronic installation was simple and explained well. The speakers in the 100w system look cheap and to say they are chromed is a stretch. Once you find a place to mount the speakers and the amp turn it on. I found the sound a 9 out of 10. Loud and clear without much distortion at all levels. I question if the remote is water proof so I sealed it up with clear tape. IF I had a newer bike I would have bought the 250W set. When all is said and done for under $100 bucks to your door they cant be beat. IMHOWill return this radio. The sound was good but the mounting system for the receiver is horrible. The setup just doesnt work well and is not universal. Would not purshase again.I would love the system. It looks great, but have one problem. It did not come with clamps to mount the speakers. In my city (San Antonio, TX), there is no place to buy clamps. Hard to believe. When I get some clamps, I let you know how the system works.
I have found some clamps at Lowe's. I got the clamps that are used to hold pipes in buildings. They might not look like much, but they work great (I got the silver colored ones). My Shark system is installed and sounds great. I was told that people can hear my music from 5 blocks away and I don't have the volume up all the way. I recommend this Shark system and for the price, you can't beat it.
