2 speaker and amp recommendation
Looking to offer a little guidance for a co-workers audio system upgrade. 2013 street glide, already has aftermarket head unit. Looking to upgrade the 2 factory speakers to 6.5 inch and an amp. Don't care about FM reception / $500ish budget

I just did a pair of MMAT 601cx's and a NVX VADM2 amp in a friends bike. Thats my 2 cents.
Speakers - $250
Speaker adapters - $20
Amp - $180
RCA cables - $10
Amp install kit - $20

I always forget about the NVX amps and I had one. They run a bit hot but are a good budget amp.

The JL 280/4 bridged would be my first choice, but doesnt fit this budget.

OP, mmats pa601cx's and a JL MX280/4 is one of favorite budget setups.

You can also look at the Ground Zero 6.5" Coax GZCF 6.5SPL ($300) speakers and the NVX VADM4 400W ($180) . SounDigital EVOX 400.4 - 4Ω ($220) or SounDigital EVOX2 400.4 - 4Ω ($250) amp is another amp possibility. Mix and match any of these and be within or just over your budget.

Do you know if that amp would work well with the MMATs 601cx in a 2020RGS without flashing the radio?

Flash
Do I need a flash even with just an amp with the two front speakers?
I'm running a Rockford Fosgate Amp(a mediocre amp, but came about it free, so I'll give it a try). Considering the MMATS, either the LS65cx (which should fit without a mod) or the PA601.cx (which will only fit with a little mod with a heat gun).
