SO...I was using CV B52 to push the fairing 6.5's (Alpine). I just bought/ordered another. Plan is to bridge amp 1 for the fairing speakers, bridge amp 2 for the 6x9's (ts6900pro).

Comments, questions,concerns, advice ?

Thanks in advance.

You cannot bridge a 2ch amp to those speakers. Your jumping the gun again.

Why did it take you to say that for me to realize that?
Of course, I can't. Doesn't make any sense.

Apparently, I breathed too deeply while painting the lids...As SBates pointed out, without pointing it out, bridging isn't going to work. Bridge 2 into 2...I don't think so.

Thanks for the reply.

Default Part 2

Ok, thought about what I meant to say on my original post. In advance, please feel free to laugh when you read it. I've been off work and the family is on vacation; I haven''t been laughed at in a while ! Thanks again, SBates08.

The amp I bought to run the 2 additional speakers (TS6900pro) I bought for the lids is too large to fit in the fairing. For sale soon (ppi 900.4). I was using a CV B52 to push the fairing (Alpine 6.5) speakers. So, I decided to just purchase another CV B52 amp to go with what I originally had. So, 1 B52 pushing the fronts, another B52 pushing the 6x9's. It appears they both will fit (I checked).

SO...any questions, comments, or suggestions? Or should it be pretty straight forward? Not withstanding my original nonsensical post, I am beleive I am capable. Just wanted to check in with those that know so much more than I do.

Thanks in advance !

What bike do you have? I've installed a PPI 900.4 in a 13 down batwing. It's tight but it fits.

Bike is a 2011 SG...

I know from reading this forum constantly, you, among a few others, are a HD stereo guru...Help me. I held it up there, tried to see how it would fit. It didn't look like it would. Came back, researched...almost all said no go...only found one post where someone said it did, couldn't find a write up or pics though.

Thanks, I appreciate any assistance you would lend.
