I'm currently installing a set of mm651 in my fairing and plan to order a pbr300x2 here in a week or two. This seems to be a common setup and most people seem to be pretty happy with the results. I also plan to get speaker lids for the rear bags, probably the hog tunes lids that hold a set of 6x9's. I have a 2013 SG so my touring pack is not always on the bike and that's why I prefer the bag lids to speaker pods on the touring pack. What is the best setup for running a amp to the rear speakers also? Is there a better choice of a amp that will power all four speakers or am I better off running two pbr300x2, one for the fronts and one for the rears? With that said will two pbr300 amps fit in the front fairing of my batwing? It would be nice to not have to use the rear bags for a amp and wiring which would be a pain when removing the hard bag.

 

No love for sounstream pn520.4?

 

That's my plan.... everyone seems to rave about the ss. Except for the loss of radio...I don't listen anyway. .. too many commercials.

 

yeah the SS is still my amp of choice, although it (and most other class D amps) poses issues with FM reception.

 

OP: Yes, you can fit 2 pbr300x2 in your fairing. You will need the Hogtunes 2nd amp adaptor. I would go that route if you listen to FM radio.

 

It bangs. The price for what you get is unreal too.

 

Do all amps interfear with fm reception? That's not something ive ever exirianced with cars.

 

Only "class D" amps interfere with radio reception. The Soundstream amp will just about totally block FM, AM, and WB. The pbr's are radio friendly.

 

Hmmm? What about a class d amp causes problems? Sorry I'm just not educated on this issue. Are they any other amps I should concider?

 

Power supply emits frequencies that interfere with FM/WB. These amps were never intended to be mounted right on top of a head unit. Most of the time they are under a seat or in the trunk of a car. The pbr's will not interfere with radio.
