What Amp & Speakers to buy for 2017 Limited
I am looking at the following. Appreciate the insight from others.
2017 Limited. Listen to classic rock/soft rock/Motown
Thinking about Rockford Fosgate TM400X4AD amp ($400), Polk audio MM652s ($150 pair) front and rear, RFXHD install kit ($125) and Flash of radio ($100).
All in for $925 doing it myself less the radio flash. I have an RF authorized dealer performing the radio flash. I am not locked into anything at this point.
Amp because of size, watts per channel (100 min to 300) for each speaker (4) and internal fans to cool it down. Plus H-D install kit for mounting and direct plug into H-D harness.
Polk speakers for resistance to weather, reputation, reviews and price.
For the $'s and quality am I on the right track? Looking for clarity of sound and performance while looking at a plug & play install. I am not trying to achieve concert hall levels but definitely want upgrade from 25 watt stock speakers.
Dont get to technical as it it will just be a flyover. I get the watts per channel and ohms issues but fall off the cliff after that.
Thank you everyone for taking the time to read and reply. It is what makes this a great group of people helping each other out to avoid expensive and disappointing mistakes.

I have that amp, I really like it so far. Since you aren't running four speakers, you may just want to look into a biketronics line leveler. New they are about $80, but you can find one around here for about $50 usually. This removes the requirement to get your radio flashed, and allows your stereo to sound amazing.

OP sounds like you're on the right track and you have an amp you can grow with. Not sure I'd run the Polks in the fairing though. They sound good but you can do better. How much more could you squeeze outta your audio budget to get a better fairing speaker?
