Default Anybody ever mixed pioneer 6900s with dd vo 6x9s?

Hey all! I have a 2015 rgs and I'm looking to upgrade my audio...i am completely stock right now! I recently purchased a 600.4 arc audio amp, bt355 LL, and advanblack double 6x9 speaker lids.... im looking into purchasing mmats 601.4 and dd b3 for front (not sure what amp) and dd vo 6x9s for rear (powered from the arc amp)... question is I've heard of doubling the pioneers in the rear but not the dd... any input on direction would help a great deal... also i literally purchased the double lids today so if this is not the right setup i can cancel asap and go another route...

Don't think you can go wrong there. Both speakers are great speakers in the lid location. I'd say that's a damn good set up!! The horns on the Pioneers will cover the highs the DD's are lacking and the DD's will cover the bass that the Pioneers are lacking. Should be a match made in heaven! Let us know how it shakes out!

That is exactly what I was going to do before I decided to put 8's inside my bags with the Pioneers in my lids.

So will I need another amp for this setup? Or will the arc push everything? How should I set it up and wire it all? I'm thinking 2 amps would fit up front in the fairing if I need another one

The 4 6x9's are gonna need at least 150 watts each to sound good. The Arc will cover the 6x9's. That leaves the MMATS and the B3 horns. So yeah you need another amp to push the 6.5's and the horns. The JL 280/4 and the Rockford Fosgate TM400X2ad are two possible solutions. I'd also rethink the MMATS up front and take a look at the DD AW's with the AT28
Tweeters. Those speakers with the 4 6x9's are gonna balance out your system.

ok great... thanks!...i was planning on buying the rf 300x2 amp to push the fronts...i will look for the amps you recommended and i also like the dd aw's/at28 combination that was my second choice setup to the mmats! Will either of these amps fit in the fairing with the arc?

Both will fit with a little creativity.

Please for the love of all things created to help us track down and conquer our audio unicorn, do not buy this POS. This will put you 2 steps backward.
