Small AMP for speaker lids
What are you guys running for a rear amp and where are you mounting it? Bags? I don't have a tour pak so that 's out. I have a RF 2 channel up in the front fairing for the fronts, but now that I'm getting lids for the rear I need something else to power them. Or does anyone know of a 4 channel that will fit in the fairing?

Buy the new Rockfard Fosgate PBR300x4. Let us know where you found the cheapest price. 75w is more than enought to run any speaker you throw at it. As long as it's 4ohms. It will fit on top of your stereo. Hide the wires going to your speaker lids.
Scratch all the above and just use your 2 channel amp to run all four speakers.

Find out what ohm speakers your amp can handle. If it 2ohm you'll have to find 6x9's that are two ohm. If they're 4ohm then find a 4ohm 6x9.
Well you have a two channel amp. One channel for left speaker and one channel for right. Now if you add two more speakers, all you have to do is wire the positives and negatives together. You will end up with a front and rear left side, and a front and rear right side. Make sence? Just double check what ohm your amp can handle, and what ohm speakers you have. They all have to match. Worse case scenario is that your two channel amp would run hot and shut off for cooling purposes. If that happens you know you need to sell the two channel amp and get a four channel.
Your only trying to push speakers not sub woofers... hope this helps.
