The SS PN4.520 May be a budget option.

The SS PN4 is definitely more my price...hahaha. I just need a slight bump in performance to hear on the freeway. What speakers would go well with the 520?

Jake, One solid choice for budget speakers, recommended for years on here are the Infinity 62IX (newer version) or 62.11 (older version) 6.5's, efficient (2 ohms) and they sound good for the money, about $95!

Those are good but can be ran bridged on the SS.

I think the OP wants to run 4 speakers, so if you are going to run the 420 bridged, that would require parallel wiring and that is not possible with the 2 ohm Kappa's. In order to run 4 speaker, wired in parallel, you would need 4 ohm speakers. I would wire the Kappa's in stereo ( 1 speaker per channel0 which would give you approx. 130 rms at 2 ohms. Please expand on your comment Marshal...thanks!

I really am between the Kappas and Hertz, but choosing a budget amp for the build is the problem.

Decided in the Kappas, and the CV B4. Anyone running something similar?
