Default What speakers to use with a pbr 300x2

Just picked up an amp to improve sound from my front fairing speakers. I currently have the boom speakers that won't handle the extra power of the amp. Do I go with Kappas 6211 or polk 6.5 marine speakers. Also if I use the Kappas is it a marine speakers and do I need speaker grills and were do I find these grills. Thanks for any input.

Call Bill at BT and get the 6.5" they will handle whatever amp you hook them up to.

Oh sorry a
2012 Street Glide. BTW I'm on a budget, I really don't want the most expensive speakers out there. So not going the $300 route. Thanks for the help

infinity's when on a budget
Stay away from the polks as they have Quality issues (melted down tweeter stalks... how do I know...).

I have a pair of Infinity 62.11i's in good shape that I took out when I went to the BT 7.1's. PM if you're interested.
