Thanks for replies so far.
Might try some high end 2ohm as suggested.
Has anyone got any model suggestions for +92db ??

What size are they 5.25 or 6.5?

I took the liberty of looking it up for you. Your fairing speakers are 5.25 and the lowers are 6.5. I would go with the Infinity Kappa 62.11 in the fairing and the lowers. You would also need an adapter ring for the fairing speakers. About $20 for that.

If i want to replace these with something better, do i need one ohm again ?
I thought all the 2006 to 2013 speakers were 2 ohm so an easy replacement??

Any help appreciated.

Add four (4) 2 ohm speakers (parallel). You will have your original load....
Just replace your two front and put two in your saddlebag lids. Don't worry about the cost. You can afford it.

And why would ever want to do it that way? By doing so, yes you do get it to 1ohm, but now that 1 channel has to split the power between 2 speakers instead of one. This is definitely not the way to do it. This would sound worse than what he had.
