You can look high and low on these forums and I don't think you'd fine one single complaint about the RF PBR300x2. For the cost and what it does it's a winner. I'd recommend it in a heartbeat.
But....
It can't compare to the BT4180 I just installed. Not only does the BT4180 crank it's crystal clear at high volume. I know it's a big nut to spend but as I've read. One and done, cry once...etc.

The Biketronics crew was skeptical of me running the Pioneer TSD6902R's because they're only rated at 80RMS. They recommended their 6x9's because they're 100RMS. We'll see if they survive the pounding.
I offset the cost of the BT4180 by selling both 300x2's I was running.

Jealous of all you guys with the 4180 and the 7.1's.. Looking at BT website I may be able to join y'all in early June.. Decided awhile back to wait and do it right the first time! Can't wait!

I was looking at the BT2180 but even at cost + 10%, it's 2 bills more than the PBR300x2 I just picked up. My PBR birth sheet shows a pretty healthy 119w/2@4ohms. That should drive my Focal components well enough. If I was looking at a 4ch amp, the BT4180 would be at the top...

The BT amps are no doubt top quality, but the price tag is just too much for a motorcycle application. I'm running the PPI version of the Soundstream 520 amp, no way I could ever need more volume and clarity. I didn't lose any of my FM stations, and the best part was the price, http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...er-i520.4.html
I paid $600. I sold both my PBR's for $100 a piece. I know there was an initial investment on those PBR's but that's water under the bridge.
I'm not familiar with the PPI but this 4180 cranks and it's crystal clear. The BT7.1's in my fairing sound even better than they did before with the PBR300x2.
Also with Biketronics it's a lifetime warranty.
How many watts per channel does that PPI push?
