Welcome to the forum first off.

Well you can add another set of 6x9's inside the bags if you are willing to to drill holes. Or you can go one step beyond and add a sub. I have done it both ways. Here is a picture of my sub to give you an ideal on space. You have a little more room going with a 6x9 if space is an issue for you. If you do a 6x9 mount it towards the rear of the bag to keep the middle open for anything you may need to carry.

Thanks!
I think I finally found the right formula. I have gotten so many compliments on the sound I have lost count. Video will never do it justice, you have to hear it in person.

No problem. But keep in mind you can't just slap a sub in and call it a day. It has to be done right or it will sound like crap.

The right 6X9 and amp combination will provide plenty of low end. Especially considering you already have 6X9's in your lids.

What Haze said! A set of Moto 692s with 200-300 watts would really compliment way you have!
