ok guys I need some help. I have a 2011 Harley road glide with alpine ILx f309 radio. (2) 6.5 hertz sv show mids in the front fairing. I also have (2) 1 inch dome tweeters by fosgate. I have 2 beyma 10s for the bags and 2 more 1 inch dome tweeters for the bags....I have class bd 1 channel 750 watt Rockford fosgate amp and a 400 watt fosgate 2 channel for highs...here is my issue. ,for the front im good with the sv 6.5 as mids and the 1 inch tweeter but in the back I dont think it will sound good with the beyma 10 inch midbass in my bags firing at the wheel and just a 1 inch tweeter. I really want another set of midrange in the back with the 2 10s instead of 2 10s with 2 tweeters.what do you guys suggest...I did buy lids but if I put speakers there the 10s will distort the sound of any speakers in the lids and blocking them off with dynamat looks bad...is there a good 6.5 sealed back speaker? .what can I use to get good back end sound. I have no budget set I just want it to sound right with no distortion so money is no issue

Why not put a compression driver in the lids.

Agree with Frenchie and Tailwind as the 10 will make a regular speaker sound bad and the other will not let the 10 play to the best of it's ability.

Play down to 500hz. They’re freaking loud with little power too.

Now I cannot speak to absolute authority on this, only what I know from reading etc because I’ve always used a different type. But I think the typical male voice is like 85-150hz and female is up to like 250. So they won’t have strong vocals according to generic thinking but I believe you’ll still pick up vocal.

Im sure several of these guys have enough experience to answer this though with first hand knowledge.
