So after a few days waiting for back orders to come in I went and changed everything… ordered 3 sets of gz yb 6.5 and a set of db drive 6x9 along with 2 sd 800.4 amps… so I’m left with a couple questions… and yes I have a dsp to go along with everything already on my bench…

1. can I bridge the 4 in front to 2 channels on the amp? Along with 4 in rear to 2 channels on the second amp?

2. will the gz yb 6.5 speakers fit in the hogtunes lower pods (2015 Ultra Limited with wet heads)?

 

EVO X Amos correct?

You have 8 speakers and 8 channels available right?

All 4 ohm speakers?

If all of the above is correct, ur essentially stuck wiring them straight up to each speaker without bridging.

yes 8 speakers all 4 ohms… my concern with that is will I have enough to power all 8

 

Based on the 800.4 EVO X ur gonna get each speaker 147 watts at 14.4 volts. A lil light for the GZs but if ur already pregnant with those supplies u have to run what u brung.

Two 1200.4 2 ohm would have been a better play. U could have bridged & paralleled off of those and gotten each speaker 300+ each.

It is what it is.

i couldn’t pass up the price of the 800.4s… I’m not trying to achieve super loud just super clean

 

I totally get it brother. Run what you have and see how u like the results.

But just remember that u cannot bridge & parallel the 4 ohm amp in an attempt to puff up the watts a bit thus ur pretty much stuck with straight up traditional wiring of ur 8 speakers to 8 channels.

I have zero problem running it 8/8 especially with the dsp I just don’t want to under power them and have them sound horrible… I’ve spent way too money already chasing this dragon…

 

I wouldn't say ur technically under powering the speakers but you are gonna be leaving a lot of potential on the table.

Above 50 mph u will be kicking urself.

These are the type things you have to take into consideration when buying components for your system. Yes price becomes a factor but if the deal is not best suited for your needs, deal or not you've wasted those dollars.
