The hertz are coax so no crossovers. There in lies my problem though, because the tweeters are atatched to the center of the speaker. After buying a couple generic 6.5 speaker grills i had to settle on the oem grills because they were the only ones that qould fit in the recess. I wish i could get them without the hd shield in the middle then the tweets wouldnt be covered. Now it seems some sort of component speakers is my only option.
I have a jvc arsenal head unit that has 5v pre outs and bt 480 in the fairing. I have a pdx f6 for my bags but its not installed yet. I just picked up a set of top shop 3" bags, i will mount one set of 6x9s in the rear of the bags and another swt in cyclesound lids. I figure i can keep about half my bag space if i do it that way. I have to decide between the hertz hi energy or the polk mm 691 still.

Ok here is what I came up with for the SPZ cossovers.
I took the top covers off and placed them on top of the head unit. These suckers are huge and there is two of them. But I test fit the outer fairing and it just barely clears the end of the x-overs, WHEW! I tried ever concievable way to place these in there but this is the only way I can stuff them in there.
Keep in mind, I still have the other 2 Polk x-overs you see dangling there that I also have to zip tie up some way.

If I did it all again, I would go with the highest end Hertz or HAT co-ax speaker I could find than to have to deal with these huge bricks called x-overs!

BigGlevis, what are the dimensions of the polk audio xovers? I may swap the hertz in my lowers for these to solve my speaker grill dilemna. Not only do they look good, but being marine i wouldn worry about them being exposed. By the way, can u play the head unit in the closed position if u had to ride with a splash guard installed?

I'm not sure, I have not measured the Polk x-overs and I can't find specs for them anywhere.
But I did find a picture that shows the size compared to the speaker. They are really not that big.

And yes, the head unit plays in the closed position.

Here is the Polk x-over picture.
