Amp recommendation?
Upgrading my stock speakers on my 2012 Street Glide to the Infinity Kappa 62.11I's speakers in my fairing and was going to go with a CV B52 amp but possibly looking towards (but not for certain) future expension of my system and eventually putting speakers in my lids and I know the CV B52 is limited to 2 channels. Now looking at the
or the
(both 4 channel amps)- any thoughts on either of these amps and which will better suit my needs? From what I've read the CV amp has a smaller footprint and would fit better in the fairing than the Soundstream. Thanks!

Let the guys know your budget and they might be able to point you in a better direction, but if you've heard the Kappas and like em go with em.

The Kappa 62.11i's are discontinued. You can still buy them but the newer version is the 62ix and can be found for around the same price or cheaper at some places. The B52 and Kappa is a great combo but if you are looking at possibly expanding later, a 4 channel amp @ at least 100w RMS per channel is what you'd want to look for. The B54 isn't the best choice for 4ch.

If you have any plans to expand and are "married" to the Kappas go with the PN4.1000D. It will give you better flexibility with the possible lids.

I’m piggybacking on all the great information on this thread.
i’m doing the BT line levelers, stinger amp, mmats faring Speakers, R.F. TMS 69BL14 bag lid kit.
I had a question as I’m assembling things.
My local dealer said do not power up or turn on the Boom head unit (and rest of the new system) until the Boom unit is flashed at the dealer.
i’d like to power everything up and make sure my connections are good before closing in everything.
wondering thoughts of the others who have done this same system and what you did?
thanks in advance
