you can put a dead body in the fairing of a road glide!
as for the price of the amp kit ,,,and special brackets ,,, yes, it was a challenge getting all the stuff to fit in the fairing properly, with the new amp ,,,,, thankfully we figured out how to do it ,,,,,
Also, I went back and reviewed all of the raw materials costs tonight and have decided that even though some costs are still unknown at this stage, we will sell the 36 complete amp kits at Bike Week for $499.99 less 10%, ($449.99) PLUS installation ,,, and installation cost will depend upon what else we are installing at the same time ,,,, we will know all of that by the time we get there ,,,,
as for where these amps are made ,,, and I will be totally honest here, the amp itself is made in the same factory in China that makes the Arc Audio Mini amp, so obviously the designs are similar ,,,
the wiring harness and SS brackets, hardware etc, at least for now, are made in Tucson AZ USA ,,,, but I might move some of this to Mexico later this year as volume builds and we need to reduce costs further to compete ,,,,,
same old drill ,,, we need to make a profit to stay in business ,, but we have to sell the stuff at competitive prices ,,, and that often means that we cannot make everything in the USA, no matter how much I would like to ,,,,

I love my J&M speakers and you would probably have to pry them out of my dead fingers. Almost 500 might be tough to swallow, but if it is anything as good as my 7.25s I guess I would shell out the cash. Hopefully when they are released to us all the price will be a little lower. I just wish the release date was sooner cant wait any longer. I am worse than my seven year old.
What is the Elf? The Arc Audio amp J&M is based on is the KS 125.2 Mini...
Does the Elf have the same Rated Output as the KS 125.2 & who makes it?
Looks to me like J&M is making the Arc KS 125.2 Plug & Play with our bikes and to do that is going to cost about $120 (bike week price) for the added stuff to make P&P...
The P&P additions do add some value to the J&M (AA) amp ($329 Arc Audio list)...whether it's worth $120 extra at Daytona (more after) is an individual's choice.
