NVX VADM2 is probably a better all around deal.

Thanks for the info.So i assume with the bt355 line leveler i would not have to have gts infotainment system re flashed?The audio place that specializes in Bike installs were i live recommends the Rockford TMS65 speakers i checked them out and are expensive for what they are i am sure they recommend them because they are drop in replacements and after checking reviews do not sound that great for the money.I think might go with the focal Focal FD-2.350 amp and Focal ISC165 6-1/2" 2-way Speaker had good experience with Focal and the sound it produces.One question with the focal speakers would i have to modify the speaker pods for them to fit the Focal ISC165 6-1/2" 2-way Speaker has a Shallow mounting depth.Thanks in advance

I will tell you that the focal isc 's that I heard sounded good up until they blew. Not one but both blew after a month or so. I personally didn't install them or tuned them but I did replace them in my buddy's bike. Both woofer excursions separated at the base probably do to trying to push the low end too much. He was running them off a sony HU and stinger amp. My advice to you is if running them just don't try to push them to hard. They are a mid level speaker and need to be treated as so.

You recommend mmats 601cx Which is a lot cheaper than Focal ISC .Does the speaker pod have to be modified to to fit 6.5 speakers?Last bike i did was 2011 didnt have to deal with speaker pods.Had Arc audio amp and infinity kappas and they were really loud but very bright.

Yes sir. Those mmats are about the best bang for the buck right now for a 6.5 coax speaker as I stated before along with the vadm4 amp. Save yourself some $$ and still have a solid setup. Im not sure what mods are needed to get them in the pods as I have bt brackets.

You are welcome brother. No regular on this forum would steer you in the wrong direction as I guarantee you that they look at almost every thread about wanting help or guidance needed whether they post on it or not.

One more question would it be better to have boom infotainment flashed or just use the BK line leveler?

The Biketronics Line Leveler will be fine without a flash.
