remember, the b54 is underpowered in 4 ohm, so stick to 2 ohm speakers, if thats not your longterm goal, get a stronger amp. the b52 has good power in both 2 and 4 ohm setups. the pac sni-35 is simply a line out converter that takes your current speaker wires and adapts them to RCA jacks
I went with the B54 due to it being 4'channel so I could add the back speakers once I get the tour pack and speaker pods on. The infinity speakers I purchased are 2ohm. Does my idea make sense?

Not many 2 ohm options.
Don't get me wrong, the kappas are damn good but if / when u grow out of them ur probably gonna have to redo the amp to support the next tier of speakers.

Tailwind is on point with his reply. Granted what you've chosen will run good together, it's the next stage that will conflict with your decisions. And trust me when I tell you...There is always a next stage.

And for the money that your gonna spend on the iPod interface, I'd use that money to replace the HK head unit with a good aftermarket head unit. Then your music options will expand greatly as will the sound of your upgrade.

Makes sense, but if u want good room to grow and open up ur options to the 4 ohm world, which is HUGE, u might try and make a u-turn w the B54.

I had my mind set on keeping the system looking stock to keep people from possibly wanting to steal anything. But, I think you guys have changed my mind. I am going to send the amp back and go with the HD ready Aquatic AQ-MP-5UBT-H receiver. Completely waterproof and operates exactly like the factory radio with handlebar controls. Your phone fits inside the unit and connects wirelessly, but, also has a charging port in the cavity as well. The internal amp powers 4ea 2 ohm speakers at 75 watts each. Will most likely take care of my needs for sure. I watched a few youtube videos on it and read some reviews that were very good.
