Arc Audio Bx125

Hey guys! So I have a arc audio bx125 amp and I am looking for the best speakers for a 2 speaker only system. I used their low end 6.5’s but quickly smoked them. It’s on a 2001ultra. I emailed arc about the moto602’s and they say while these speakers will sound good they may not have the volume I would like? I find this odd since they are the speakers they supply in the MPAK 6 kit. So what are suggestions knowing this amp only puts out 70x2 at 4 ohms.
I am currently running CDT audio 6.5,
2 ohm speakers, and while at 125 watts they sound good, I just feel like there’s something better.

Honestly that amp is holding you back. If your wanting volume 70w isn’t going to get it done. There’s lots of info
on 2 speaker systems and all of them are going to require more than your amp is going to provide.

I kind of figured as much. I just didn’t want to start over completely. I’ve seen many people say these are great amps, but for what speakers??? Lol

So with such low numbers I’m curious what it’s good for and why people praise it so much. I mean it’s a great little amp....
