Question sound system

Guess I probably should've asked before I bought them but a little late now... I just put a set of speakers and amp on my Nomad ..BossMC400 ..they sound good to me they have been on less than 24 hours so I cant really judge to much about them all of the reviews I read sounded good so I jumped on them for around 60$ has anybody heard or have they had any problems out of these speakers?

That's a cheap system that most motorcycle riders jump at for their handlebars. Not sure how loud your bike is but if the exhaust is loud it will get drowned out pretty fast.

When you look at a stereo, amp, and speakers look at the RMS for each item. That is the power that the items will play at continually. The peak is what the items are capable of reaching supposedly.

I have owned this system for about a year and a half. For the money I paid for it it is well worth it. One word of advice. I use an MP3 connected to mine that has equalizer settings. You want to experiment with those settings to get the most you can out of the speakers. I use mine on my 2004 Nomad with v&h pipes and I can still hear it at 80 mph.

Make sure you get up on the highway so that you can see what it sounds like up there.
