No love for the soundigital 800.4? Not sure on the size comparison but specs say 200x4. It is at 2ohm though

Just kidding bro! I was basically saying when they come up with a 6 channel amp rated at 200 watts per channel @ 4 ohms with the same footprint as the focal amp. I'm all in!!
I presently run two JL 600/6 amps. That's it. My JL's are only 75 watts per channel though. To get 200 watts I have to bridge em. But technically I can only bridge 3 speakers. Lol!!

Gann...are both those 600/6's in your fairing? Would two FDPs fit in an 09 FLHTCU?

I'm thinking about PA601s in the lower pods, PRV 6MR500-NDYs in upper fairing, and not sure about the pak pods. I have stock 5.25 pak pods and havent researched if I can enlarge the hole to accommodate PA601s, or just go with BT747s.

Eventually I'm thinking SBD CCK lids...down the road a bit.

Are you happy with the sound being such a small enclosure? What grills did you go with after shimming them out 1/2"?

Poly fill a bit? ...or maybe there is already, havent opened mine yet.

What else are you running?

Just got the replacement amp from Pacific Stereo. Simple RMA process from them so I’m going to endorse them as a great source so far. I originally got the Amp with a 25% off coupon code so the price was right too! Nothing from the Focal tech guy so far but I’ll start the diagnosis and new amp install Saturday morning. Should have a report by late afternoon... thinking about doing an install “lessons learned” with pictures and a list of the stuff I actually used out of all the supplies I bought ( ha ha)...
