Default recommendation time!

I have a 2006 Street Glide with a Kenwood deck with BT handlebar control module (changing to Sony MEX M71BT that I already have soon) with a set of MPX165's in the fairing powered by a BT2180. I am wanting to add lowers for now. Which speakers would be the most logical choice? I was thinking another set of the same ones I have. Will the 2180 be powerful enough to run them efficiently in parallel? I'm not opposed to changing amps if I need to but only if it will be a big diffference. Thanks for the help!

I’ve about talked myself into SV165’s in the lowers and keeping the MPX’s in the fairing and buying a 600.4. Just out of curiosity, how would the speaker setup I mentioned sound with the pn4.1000d vs the 600.4? Big difference in price between the 2 amps!

To me the difference is negligible.

Both will sound better than the 2180!
