Is there a good 4 channel amp that will fit in a batwing Fairing? Also, what do you like for speaker lids and speakers?

 

there is a dedicated audio forum for in depth knowledge base

a good basic amp is the rockford fosgate PBR 300x4- about $160 on amazon

you can look at the manual online for wiring instructions- pretty straight forward

There are many amps to choose from, pick one. As far as lids go, Hogtunes make good ones, I've been happy with mine. Like amps, there's many 6x9's out there so pick one. I'm running Pioneer TS 6902's and like them well enough. Most current amps are 2 or 4 ohm compatible, so get 2 ohm units as they will be louder than 4 ohm ones.

 

Can i follow up with simple upgrades to fairing and trunk speakers, (specific suggestions please) with that rockford amp. This stuff gets past me quick. Thanks Mike and John

 

Yes, you can. Generally, people go with 6.5 fairing speakers and speaker adapters. I don't have tour pack speakers, but it's my understanding some 6.5's will work in the pods. Speaker choice is as much about budget as anything else. Just be sure to match speaker impedance to the amps output.

 

I went with the Harley saddle bag lids and Boom Audio Speakers. Sound and look great. As far as an amp, I've never needed one. The stock unit was plenty loud enough for me and now that I've got an Aquatic AV head unit that puts out 288 watts I can hear even better. I also have the Boom Audio speakers in the fairing.

 

Visit the audio section of the forum. Don't waste money on Boom!, J&M, or any of that crap. The guys in the audio section can get you extremely better sound on a much better budget.

 

I will add that I am very happy with the 6.5 infinity kappas I put in my 09 fairing ( w./ adapter rings) very efficient and good tonality

Those are a great set of speakers. I've installed a few pair for friends. I currently have the Infinity Kappa 5x7's in my fairing and 6x9's in my bag lids. Very nice setup.

 

yes there's actually many of em...6 channel too
