Got speakers need advice on rest
Hi all. Adding a Reckless fairing to my 04 Road King. Was able to trade for some Hertz HCX 690's and need to figure out what amp and HU for them. I dont need CD or FM as im only going to be using Iphone/Ipod. Will only be running the 6X9's in fairing have no intentions to upgrade or add any other audio. I have a wake board boat with multiple amps/speakers I did myself so not new to audio just on the bike. Thanks for any input.

Yeah been looking at the Kenwood KMR-D765BT even though I dont need CD it looks like a nice unit and good price. Im ok puting the amp in one of my saddlebags. Just not sure if id be better off bridging a 4 channel or using a 2 channel amp?

the nice thing about a 4 channel is you can bridge it most times to run 2 speakers, may have to turn the gains lower thats not a bad thing
Then if you add another set of speaks,you have a 4 channel amp ready to go after rewire
and a retune
So something in this list maybe

Some have been bench tested by a member here. AAWAV https://www.hdforums.com/forum/audio...ch-6-amps.html
Most seem to be true.
If you stay away from the 6 inch Wide amps I think you will be fine.
