Yes. But not what you are thinking. The PBR will not push the Hertz speakers to their full potential. If you purchase the Hertz speakers . . . You are going to need a more powerful amp.

Lol . . The Hertz speakers don't have a whole lot of bass anyway. If you want bass. look at the Biketronics 7.1 PRO's or the Arc Moto 602's.

Gannicus. What would recommend as the best speakers for the PBR300x2 amp? I am upgrading a 2016 SGS system. Not looking to break the bank but need better sound. At some point I will be adding lowers and 2 more speakers.

The Kappa's (Infinity 62.11i) are the best "not looking to break the bank" speakers out there. Of course if you are looking to add speakers to the lowers you will have to change amps. Don't know if you listen to FM radio or not. But the 4 channel amp can get quite expensive if you do. If not, You have several options.

Looking for more bass than the Kappas based on your comments above. And would like to only get one amp so I can expand to the lowers later on. Any suggestions?

Take a look at the regular BT 7.1's. I had them in my front fairing powered by a PBR300x2 and they sounded really good. Much better bass than the Kappa's.
