Last year I updated my stereo system with a 300w Clarion amp and Polk 5-1/4" speakers after reading the article by Fried Chicken Blowout. It made a big difference in the volume and sound of the system. After seeing these adapters with the round style speakers I decided to go to the next level. Received my adapters on Friday, and installed them yesterday along with new Polk db651
6-1/2" speakers. Love the looks and the added volume with the bigger speakers is awesome!! If they can't here me coming now, their definitely deaf! These babies rock. A big shout out to Ohio Voyager for his creativity. You're making a lot of bikers very happy.

The Kickers sound great. With the Rockford Fosgate amp driving them, I can really hear it now. More depth. Still not a thumper but much better than the 5 1/4 Polks I had in there.

I am super happy with my 6.5 Db651 speakers. I painted my grills satin black though. I thought the silver grills threw off the color scheme of my Vaquero.

Speakers
Well let me start by saying sorry for all the posting today , but Just got my bike yesterday and love all the things I can do with it . I am gonna order the adapters this coming week and I wanna go with the Infinity speakers. The problem is I have searched all over and I found the M612 but can't find anywhere that sells the LED ones. Sorry if it's a dumb question can some post a link

I joined the crowd!!!
I have made the switch from the stock size speakers to Randy's adapters and Kicker LED speakers.
But I went in a little different direction as most have done. Over the last week and a half I performed he sanding and fitting of the adapters. I had ordered all the required primer/basecoat/top coat/clear coat from Color Rite so I could have the adapters and speaker grills match my skoot. Well match as well as can be with no experience with 2 stage painting at all and with rattle can! I went with Kicker speakers with the red LED lites, look real cool and adds a touch of... Added some chrome caps to cover the screws... With all the lites turned off in the shop, looks kinda neat... Gonna ride later today and tonite so I am anxious to say the least. RACNRAY

Ray u da man!
Looks great! Wish they'd of had the JL's with the green l.e.d. They only had blue :( And the Color Rite match looks seamless! I was going to p.m. you let you know that I too was working on a project using the Color Rite paint. It turned out helluva lot better than I expected!!

Looks great Ray, I'll bet they sound sweet. Yeah those pin stripes definitely take the looks up a few notches.
