Default Need help upgrading AMP

Current Setup 2014 Streetglide
Sony XAV-AX100
DD D4 Amp
Front Speakers- Arc 602's
Just added the Rockford Fosgate Lid kit which are 6x9 TMS69 Speakers.

I bought the original kit from Alex about a year ago. Wasn't sure i was gonna do the lid kit, but decided I wanted some more volume for the wife. Alex told me originally that the DD D4 prob wasn't gonna be enough to push all 4 speakers and he is right, I was happy with the 2 but now with the 4 its not that great. Looked and both sets of speakers are 4 ohms. What amp would you guys recommend? Thanks for the help

you might consider that arc moto 600.4 or the focal sport amp.

Don't make the same underestimation twice thus are u going to go with 4 Speaks as ur audio unicorn or is there a possibility of 6?

The ARC 600.4 is only a good play if 4 Speaks will be your max.

you can also always run your DD amp in addition to another if you find the need.

Are you running a bt355? If so, I would try tuning the LL before spending $$ on a new amp. Also those tms69's just stink for a 6x9.

They have a muffled not clean sound and wont handle any power without blowing. Even RF says to be careful when tuning their tm400 amp with those speakers.
