6x9' in lids

looking at adding speakers in the lids, my question is should I keep the system all biketronics or order hogtune lids and add hetrz or arc moto 6x9's I've heard good things about all of them. question 2 would be will the 4180 be sufficient to push all 8 speakers?

I agree with Gan, BT 6x9's would be best if running in parallel! I have a question for Gan, you have had both the Harley lids and the Hog Tune lids, which ones do you like better?

Hey Mike!

Both lids are high quality lids. I would have kept my Hog tunes if my grandson hadn't damaged one of em!! Lol!! I decided on replacing them with the CVO lids simply because I like the Harley emblem on the grills!! Lol... I know it's silly but I get bored really fast. But yeah all jokes aside both are high quality!! I'd buy the Hog tune lids again in a heart beat!!
One good thing about the CVO lids is you can run 5x7's 6.5's and 6x9's in there. (With adapters of course) I like that versatility! A good example is Tailwinds system with those 6.5 focals in the lids. Nice!!
