Default Need some install advice

I am gonna be installing the following on a 2011 flhtk
fairing 2 hertz st35 and 2 hertz 165.1
bags 2 hertz st35 and 2 hertz 200.1 (all facing wheel)
alpine ute 62bt
and 2 fosgate t400xad 4 channel amps.
Im looking for some advice as to y connectors, power cable size and basically getting the most out of this set up for my money. Also am I missing anything in this set up that would be needed? Any help would be appreciated. I’ve put systems in cars before but usually having a 4 channel and a sub amp, the installation of two 4 channels is confusing me a bit and looking for some clarity

Just want to verify ur install. Ur doing fairing and inside the bags? No lids, lowers or your pack speakers?

Correct fairing and inside the bags only. The 6.5’ And st35 are already in the fairing and the 8’s are in the bags already I have a rf t400xad running the 6.5 and 8’s currently and the tweeters are running off the head unit. I am planning on adding two more st35’s in the bags and getting another 4 channel amp( I have them all actually just waiting to install)

That's an interesting build. I'm assuming its for parking lot stuff cause ur not gonna get a significant return on your investment rolling down the road regarding the inside the bag strategy.

As for what u have I'm thinking ur already boxed into a corner with those amps running 6 horns, 2 4 ohm 6.5s, and 4 4 ohm 8s.

U might want to rethink a few of the strategies u got going.

2 cents.

No I think I confused ya, the total speaker count will be 4 st 35’s, 2 165.1 6 1/2, and 2 200.1 8’s. Sorry for that confusion.

You have any guidance with what I have at my disposal as far as install suggestions? I like the set up as is. With the speakers in the bags I do a ton of shows and wanting to compete in some low watt sound offs possibly.
