I will tell you that the latest 5.25" HogTunes are very close to the J&M 5.25" speakers with the grill mounted tweeter/midrange, on the Harley ,,, Pez did a very good job on them ((no comparison though to the new J&M 7.25's of course)) ,,
to hear the 2db difference between them ((the J&M's are just slightly louder)) you would need them side by side, running the same track of music, or a db meter ,,, the J&M 5.25s have the grill mounted tweeter/midrange and that adds in my opinion, better mids and highs, especially on the highway ((along with good looking grills)) ,,,
and no question ,,, you need to sell what your customers want to buy ,,, but why not offer both and let the customer choose for themselves ? ,,,
just let us know when we can be of service to you ,,,,
