Default 2 speaker setup

Looking for the best 2 speaker setup I can squeeze into my 2007 street glide.. as it sits right now I bought it with an aquatic av radio, boom speakers and maybe an amp? Not too sure. But the speakers are blown and sound terrible and it’s time to upgrade. I just want to do fairing speakers and I’ll be using the 6.5 adapters. I’m kind of curious as to how much space you have left in the fairing after you put those adapters in. It seems like hertz sx165 neo fits, but what else does? Also, am I able to keep my aquatic av radio or do I need to get a new one like the sound stream?

One of the best 2 speaker setups would be:
-Euphoria EX6NCD-CF
-SD 1200.4 or Cicada BDA1400 amp
-SD 400.2 amp
- ARC PSM pro DSP

All equipment fit in fairing and keep your Aquatic radio

PS. You asked for "best 2 speaker setup"..... And head over to Minnesota if you need it installed and tuned

Shock, the BDA1400 has been discontinued but there are still some available at dealers. It's being replaced by the flx1400.4 which I cannot find any information on yet.

Correct. Yeah I was hoping the FLX1400 would be out by now. I'm super interested in it.

I have the BDA 1400 and love it. Do you know what the changes are going to be and if the whole BDA line is going to the FLX?

I haven't heard but I would assume they are going to phase out the BDA line.

Here's a pic of 2 FLX700's and a FLX2500.1

Thanks... they are up and on the site now. They seem to be very close in size maybe a half inch smaller. Power numbers look close and they mounted the fan on the top instead of the end now. The interesting one is the 1400.4P with a built-in dsp. List at $999

Edit... looking further they put those angled Corners to make them fit better and also added feet that can go on top or bottom of the amp...

Nicely done...but my bda will stay put as I don't have any fitment problems
