Default Adding amp to SG

I have upgraded the speakers in my SG with hogtunes but want more punch from them. Has anyone added an amp for just the front speakers and if so, was a a nice improvement. I know the HK headunit is rated at 20 watts/channel but from past car audio experience that usually means 1/2 that in real life. I was hoping to aadd a power amp for some more volume and cleaner sound.

Ive done several upgrades to my past vehicles and the best improvement was always adding an amp so Im thinking it would work on the bike too.

Thanks

Contact Pez@Hogtunes, he sells a plug & play fairing mount amp for approx $200. Worth it for sure.

I sent Pez an e-mail, and received an answer. The amp for the 4 speaker set-up will work. Around 200 dollars.
