Combine that with a B2 or B52 and it would be a new system.
100% agree. im running a cerwin vega and kappas, set gains with babyboys "system", first time out i fried the hogtunes in the rear pods, so only had fairing speakers, running on front channel only, the kappas rock with that amp. if you go that route, definately go with the b54, the fade option is great to bring my rear pods up a bit, and i assume it would do the same with lowers
