Default upgrade time

My current setup is Kenwood x998, WDX6moto in the fairing, Mmats 601.4 in lowers and kappa's in the TP pods. All powered by a SSpn4.1000d. I would like to get my FM back and upgrade at the same time. I have a set of Mmats 601.cx in hand and looking to build around what I have. Can I run 6 speakers off of one amp? 700.00 to spend plus what I can get for my used equipment.

I had an SS amp too and replaced with the stinger spx 700 and got radio reception back. Its a highly recommended amp here, so consider that as an option.

That is on my radar but will it power 3 pairs?

That question I can’t answer. Hopefully someone with more fm experience can answer that.

Not exactly scientific but my wife has the NVX VADM4 under her fairing and she was listening to FM radio today. We even put a stubby antenna on it too so it must not degrade it much if at all.
