Need help on my EIGHT or TEN speaker set up!
My plan is for an ALL 8ohm speaker system...2015 FLHTCUL Ultra Classic Low with non Boom/stock system - replace 5.25” fairings with 6.5” coax or three ways, add 6.5” woofers to vented lower fairings, upgrade Tour Pack with 6.5” two or three ways, and replace stock saddlebag lids with either a single OR dual 6x9 set up.
My needs are 1) speaker brand/model suggestions based on the above info, 2) subsequent speaker wiring options, based on 3) amp requirements - looking for the safest, most cost effective yet best sounding options available considering my particular bike and whatever space I have behind that fairing.for amps.
I appreciate your skilled and knowledgeable input - I know there are a good bunch of very audio tech savvy guys on here.

actually no, that did not help at all.
so let me clarify, I am looking to run a pro audio system. I am not looking to run components.
my post asks how to run the wiring/connect all the speakers, and I would like to know what amplifiers would be appropriate to do so.
thanks

Have you considered a Boom! Audio system?

Need Clarification. Your first sentence indicates you want a system with 8 ohm speakers. Your next two sentence's indicate you want to go with coaxial 3 way speakers? Basically 3 different set up's you can go with on a bike. Coaxial, Component or Pro Audio. Coaxial s and Components can be ran together. Pro Audio is a pretty much stand alone system due to the high SPL. The coax and comps can't keep up. 8 ohm speakers are normally associated with a Pro Audio system, Hope this helps.

Need specs on those speakers to provide a good suggestion for an app and wiring. List what make and model speaker for each location. Will help get you the beat answers

Boom Audio is good stuff, but J & M is awesome too! I think there's a forum member that's a vendor who can chime in to help. His name is Jack or John if I remember correctly. I would also put as many subs as possible on the bike in parallel bridged configuration. It'll sound awesome crusing around.
