I will probably Get smashed but I will ask anyway
I have a BT2180 Amp & BT 355 etc - which I understand is rated at 180W RMS per channel
Speaker options I am considering include - JL Audio C5-650x 6.5" Coaxial Speakers (C5650X) - rated 75W RMS and Focal EC 165 K 6.5″ 2-WAY COAXIAL rated 80W RMS
Will the BT 2180 destroy the speakers?
If so I assume I need to find a 2 way alternative with a higher rated continuous power ?
Hertz Mille Pro MPK165P.3 6.5" Component Split Speakers - rated 120W RMS or Focal ES 165 KX2 K2 Power Series 6-3/4" rated 120W RMS
Install is for a 2018 Street Glide - Fairing only
Be kind please.

It's better to have too much than not enough. You don't want to run your amp at full capacity all the time (hard on the amp and causes speakers to distort and get muddy real quick)
Short answer: no your BT 2180 will not destroy speakers, AS LONG as it is tuned properly.
Now there will be some guy's who can chime in that will have experience with that amp and can give you some more info.

Ahh shix, I was wondering that after I posted. Though I remembered no adjustments on them. Give Biketronics a call
