what kinda recommendation you looking for sir? If it will work and sound good..

If you're referring to the MM651 in the lowers then yes it will work and yes it will sound great. Just make sure when you adjust your gains on your amp you do so with only the fairing speakers first, then do just the lowers

me personally, I'd stick with the MM651 speakers top and bottom with that particular amp.

I'll tell you where these 7.1" speakers will really shine and that's with the Alpine amp that GlacierPearl is running. 4x150 @ 4 ohms. Problem is the amp is not small enough to fit inside the fairing.

The biketronics amp is small enough. Im running the BT2180 for the fairing and lowers. Titan II 7.1 up top and 6.5 in lowers. In parallel all 4 speakers are getting about 125watts. The BT4180 will fit also and thats 180 watts x4 RMS at 4ohm.

UltraNutZ,
I'm going to buy the SS 520d that you and several others have talked about.

I started the tear down on Sunday and hope to have then entire Ultra Transformation done in 3 weeks.

I currently have Hogtunes system with speakers in the lowers and big ultra amp. I'm wanting to pitch the system due to speakers fading on left side and cutting out, I believe it's the amp.
I am looking at the Biketronics BT2180 amp with four speaker package to replace the hogtunes speakers in the fairing and the lowers. I wanted to get some insight that this is a good package to replace or should I get something else or possibly a different package. I currently already have the tweeter pod on on inner fairing as well.

Thanks,
