Default Second Amp advice.

Current setup is a BT4180.14 amp BT 7.1 pro's in the fairing, hertz SV-165's in the lowers in parallel and arc 602's in the TP. I am about to pul the trigger on a DSR1 but thought adding a second amp to power the 602's and maybe room for bag lid might be worth while. Just curious on current amp recommendations that wont over load the charging system, not trying to break the bank this time.

You trying to run in stereo or mono? Where would you put said amp ie.. Tourpak, bag, or in fairing?

Just looking to add a bit more power, the 4180 is underpowered for my set up but don't want to ditch it if I don't have to. Just trying to figure out where the app selection is right now, sound digital,sound stream etc. I'm 2-3 years since the install so **** changes quick and just looking for whats decent since im doing the dsp anyways. Leaning at running it in the TP but not set in stone.
