Default System thoughts?

Hey guys,

just wondering what your thoughts would be on a system set up with stock head to a DSI-2.

Then to a SD 2400.2 2 ohm.

Channels 1-2 to the GZCF 6.5SPL coax at about 225 per.

Channel 3 to lowers with hertz 165 spl with about 200 per

channel 4 to lids with Mmats 6x9 coax at about 200 per.

I feel like it should be a good rider bike. I do believe the amp will be about maxed. Not sure anyone’s thoughts. Also, 14 batwing

Post edited as I didn't catch the fact this was the 2ohm version 2400.
The 4ohm version would've offered more flexibility.

Bates,

that’s the type of info I’m looking for I guess. So you think I’d be better with a 4ohm? I will not be putting anything into the bags. The future ex wife and I fill them up whenever we head out. So just lids, lowers, and fairing. Maybe someday a tour pak. But not this go around.

Go look at the specs on the 4ohm version running in 2ohm. Being that all of your speakers are 4ohm, you could parallel each set down to 2ohms, run fairing on Ch1, lowers on Ch2, and lids on Ch3, and Ch4 for future tourpack. In this configuration, you'd have the ability to give every speaker 300 watts. They don't all need that much nor can the MMats handle that much but it's there if you need it.

What about a Euphoria EX4: rated at 4x200 at 4ohm and 4x400 at 2ohm. Cheaper amp and get 200w to each speaker

Will that amp fit on the stock tray?

Alright, sorry it took me a bit to respond.

bates, after looking that over that makes A lot more sense than going with the 2 ohm. Thanks for the common sense thinking sir.

also, T’s statement. Will either of these amps fit on the stock Rushmore amp tray at over 2 inches tall? I hadn’t even thought about it.

I know for certain it'll fit on a J&M amp tray. Can't tell you for certain if it'll fit the stock tray or not.
