Is adding a dsp worth it?

All the speakers you have need to be band passed (other than the horns). The have a specific place (set of Fz's where they like to play. If your head unit can not provide that, then yes you need a DSP.

I believe I set that when I first did the fairing speakers and head unit but I will check again. The components are on dedicated crossovers that came with them.

Passive crossovers take away some of the watts you are sending those speakers. So yes a dsp would help and allow you to control the cross over points. The 10's in you bags should be band passed.

i have 2 amps under the faring, the nano and the evo 800, the evo2000 and the dsp are in the tp. there is room that i could mount them in the bags, but i've tried so much stuff through the course that the tp was the easiest to start with.the 2000 is a beast and sounds great, but not what everyone needs, i'm trying to hear some low end while riding at speed and i've found that that requires power.
i am researching the new MMats PA1010 speakers which should take less power to work out well, i've blown one pair up, but i think it was from too much power, when cash allows, i'm gonna get another set and try powering them with the 300 watts they are rated for, i should be able to get that out of a much smaller amp, bridged, either the MD4110 or SDEvo 800, we'll see when i get some more cash, got the amps, but need to get new speakers.
