Default Best full range 6.5 & 6x9?

Money isn’t a issue or power. I went pro audio I don’t like it. Switching back to a warm full range. All help and opinions is appreciated

All depends on what you want, how much power you have to give to the speakers, speaker location and hu.

The GZ coax 6.5's and 7x10's are probably the warmest coax in the bike scene currently.

Gz coaxial and hertz sx690 will set you right w a 1200x4. 7x10 gz are not water resistant and don't fit great as they are not designed for bikes. You will need a .5 inch spacer w the hertz

Heard a lot about the 7x10 and the issues fitmemt wise. Power is not a issue I’ll get the SD 2400.4 if I need it. They will be going in a Rushmore fairing 6.5s I have Dayton DSP Sony 7000 HU abd BT pod eliminator brackets. 6x9s will be going in factory 5x7 lids with American hard bag 6x9 adapters

Polk MM1 6x9 are a good, warm, marine, full range 6x9 if you wanting to stay away from pro audio speakers. They will not be the loudest, but they are warm for what you are looking for.

I dig the Polk MM1s myself. They have a separate crossover block that keeps them from getting too hot. I just used good velcro to stick the crossovers to the lid behind the strap. Been in countless downpours with them without a problem.

My 7x10s fit fine in my '09 with the included adapter. No problems, and with the help from Juice and Bates in the tuning department, I cant ask for any more out of them.
