YES, and if I have to run the 6x9's in the one, that will help me push more power to the 602's in the front, I think.

I'm still not sure what u got going brother. Ur talking about 6x9s but ur telling one guy ur not running 10 speakers but then say ur running 10 speakers.

Let's try and simplify this.

2 ARC 602s fairing
2 ARC 602s lowers
Etc.......

Ok, Let's try this. I had J&M Rokkers Kit on my RGS. It was:
1. Amp in the Faring
4 Sets of J&M speakers
2 in the fairing
2 in the lower fairing
2 in the tour pak
2 in the lids

I took my bike to a local audio dealer to switch it out the J&M with the Arc MAK 12 system. He thought it would sound better if he kept the J&M system as is and install the Arc 600.4 inside the bags to run 4 JL 690xt 6x9's. Well after I got my bike and rode it for a couple of days two the the 6x9's blew. So I talked with the Arc Audio guys and they informed me that it was wired wrong , Plus He connected it to the sub out on the HU. So I pulled all the J&M stuff ( amp, speakers, and wires). I then put in the follows equipment.
2 Arc 602's in the fairing
2 Arc 602's in the lower fairing
2 JL C2 690xt 6x9's in the lids
2 JL C2 650 6.5 in the tour pak.
1 Arc 600.4 amp in the fairing

I still have the other set of JL C2 690xt 6x9's inside the bags, but they are not connected to anything. I wanted to find a way to run them as well, but I was told the Arc could only run a total of 8 speakers wired in parallel . I also was told that I would need a second amp, but I was looking for options. Thanks

I'm not sure how much as long as it will power the speakers to their potential. I am not looking to spend much more just be able to hear it at 70+ . I want to put it in the tour-pak. I think I have enough in the bags already. Please remember that I have a aftermarket Sony avx-av100 HU. THX

you need a second amp at least as capable as the ARC Moto 600..4 that you have. Adding a second is a good choice or the Soundigital Evo800.4 or 1200.4 would also be good choices. Adding DSP will also help greatly in getting the most for your investment. All the amps that i've mentioned can be mounted in the tourpack with no issues and the charging system can also handle them without a problem. Having used both brands of amps, i'd suggest the SD especially if you get a dsp unit.

Frenchie,
why are you such an assh@ttt? You know nothing about me. Did you know that certain companies have rules that prohibit online sales through forums in order to protect their dealer' and dealer network? When someone asks for your opinon about me, i would suggest that you tell the the truth, that you don't know much.
I suggested the amps that i did because i have experience insatalling and tuning them, along with many others. Instead of sparking your crap with others that have a different opinion than your own, maybe you might try to post up relevant info in threads with the idea of either trying to help someone to make their system sound better or your relevant experience with products on the market, if you have any.

I'm 100% a outside party and do not know anyone here, but from what I read above, I have no problem with someone giving their opinion even if that someone is a dealer. I didn't see any mention to pushing a person to contact you personally for a sale. I welcome dealers to give their opinion on products and A LOT of other people on this site do. To me, I believe a dealer most likely would have a little more experience on a product or line of products other than most casual users that have limited exposure to multiple products.
