Default amp suggestions

ok guys age old question here. I am looking for a good quality amp that will preferably fit in the fairing on a 2011 ultra. I am looking for something around 200-300 watts. I have been running a PBR300X2 but it has fried to right hand side speakers of some nice Polk audios and some cycle sounds and is now messing up on the right side only. Needless to say I am done with it. I have read some posts and looked at some of the suggestions but thought I would try it this way. Thanks for any help.

the catch is most amps will cause some FM level of FM reception. Not sure if that is important to you.

For a 2 channel amp, I'm a big fan of the Cerwin B2. I like it more than the PBR.

I have the same amp & Polk set up, I fried my right side speaker as well, I have installed a set of Titan 7.1's from Biketronics and am very happy, Polk had some issues with their speakers. Try calling Biketronics (sponsor here) they also do amps as well. Good people.

Does the B2 affect FM reception?

It's a class D amp, so it's likely to cause interference with FM.
