I currently have the J&M Rokker 6.65 speakers in the front faring of my 14 SGS and a RF PBR 300x2 flashed for 2 speakers, 1 amp. It sounds great!!!

I am about to add a tour pak with speakers.

Should I buy a new 4 channel amp like the Sound Stream and run all 4 off this amp? If I do this what flash will I need to do and does the SS amp come with speaker wire to RCA adapters for front and rear? If not can I use the one off of the RF amp that I currently have and use the 2nd RF one I bought for use with the Magic box.

Or... Should I keep what I have and flash the head unit to no amp 4 speakers (would this be correct), use the Magic box I have sitting on the bench for the RF amp and front speakers and hook the rears up direct to the head unit? How would this sound?

Also, where are the rear speaker connections located on a 2014 SGS?

Thanks in advanced for answering all my dumb questions.

 

Or should I purchase a BT 4180 over the SS? If I do this what flash do I want to have?

 

Depending on the speakers your putting in the tour pak (ohm rating) if you don't care about fader (which you won't have anyway unless you flash the radio again) then you can use what you have and wire the speakers in parallel to create a 2ohm load, or 3ohm if your mixing 4 ohm and 2 ohm speakers. Or you could wire in series if your using all 2 ohm speakers and create a 4 ohm load. Either way just the 1 2 channel amp is fine. If you think you might add more speakers down the road like lowers or saddlebags you could spend the money now and go with a 4 channel and the bt4180 would be a great choice for that.

 

A 4 and a 2 ohm speaker in parallel will generate a 1.33 ohm load, not 3.

 

Yes sorry that would be correct <1.5

 

If you can swing it, get the BT amp !!

 

OP...did you ever add the speaker pods?
