well that's $400 for 2 of them, sold in pairs

they are 100 watts each

you don't need to run power to them, speaker output from radio > amp harness > speaker and viola! you have 100 watts to your speaker

I'm an audio newb and based on the info I had thought it would be a simple install. I believe that they are sold in pairs. Just looking for options to drive my front fairing speakers. You indicate they are a bad idea curious why? Poor value for the cost?

There is a post in the vendor classifieds from Rockford asking for people to try this amp out for them.

For me it's a bad idea. 61 watts at 4 ohm. Throw in the 400 bucks and there is just no value here. This is "Sharper Image" type crap so if ur into that stuff, it might be right for u.

I would not fall for it boys!

If all u want are ur a fairing speaker upgrade, get a well vetted amp and the best speakers possible that ur ears and wallet can afford.

For the $400 I upgraded my stock system the first time on my 14 with 2 sets of speakers an amp and line out converters
That set up didn't sound half bad and loud
