Default Biketronics BT2180

Looking for more power than the current Arc KS125 amp I have. Have the the BT7P1 speakers and stock HU for now on my 2013 SG. Searched some threads looking for FM reception problems with the BT amp. Didn't find much. How many running the BT2180 and what can you report about it?

EXCELLENT choice... no FM issues AFAIK.
the 2 channel and 4 channel BT amps are "widely" used by our fellow members here on the forum.
Actual users will chime in here for sure today/tomorrow.
