A few motorcycle audio ?s re: my new build and soundigital

[cstmhd 10+ year member]

I am currently starting a new street glide project and I need some feedback/help . In my current setup/ride I have 4 pioneer ts-d6902 6x9's ,Kenwood XS-4S 600 watt 4 channel amplifier ,2 a/d/s 325i tweeter,2 Pyle 2.5" Bullet Tweeters and a Alpine IDA-X100M I-Pod Digital Media Receiver .

I want my new ride to sound as good if not better than my current one. I really do not want to put any speakers in the bags but I will as a last resort . The custom inner fairing can accept two tweeters and four 6.5 speaker or 4 tweeters and two 6.5 or two 6x9's and two tweeters depending on how I decide to set it up . The outer and inner will also be dynamated and one or two tiles as well .

I was looking at soundigital due to the small size of the amp which would make putting it in the fairing a piece of cake but I can't seem to find much info on it. Anyone with any input I would appreciate it .

I also was wondering what some of your thoughts were regarding focal component systems and the alpine spr series . My friend also told me to check out the Beyma line ?

Just want to hear some thoughts suggestions as the more info you get the better decisions you can make .

Thanks !!

I'd steer CLEAR away from SoundDigital.... too much smoke and reliability issues. They make great cheap compact efficient power when they do work though.

ARC, AmericanBass, and PPI all make some very tiny amps

^^is that tiny enough?^^

Thanks for the reply . That would def work size wise .I want to stay away from arc but I will look into the other two suggestions . Thanks !!

PS

My amp budget is around 600 bucks but would prefer to spend less on amp more on speakers .

Powerbass XAX series - small as hell! About the size of two cds for the largest amp of that series

Thanks guy's now some homework to do with the suggestions . The shark mini full range looks interesting .

Any expierience with the focal k2 series ? It looks like it's meant to run of a 2ohm so the powerbass amp would fit the bill.
