I tried mounting a smaller amp away from the boxes and it interfered with installing the outer fairing. best option if you really want fairing speakers there is to mount the amp in a saddlebag and give up some storage. I ended up forsaking the second set in the fairing due to cramped quarters. I will eventually get a set of saddlebag lid speakers if needed...
What were you using for inner fairing speakers?
I think it would be more accurate to say they didn't do much for you. Made a big difference for me. From one set of Polk MM6501 to adding a second set of MM651's in the inner was a big difference. For the OP I put my amp behind the media player I replaced the factory deck with. It's a little soundstream. Works well for me.
I have was using focals and polks.. They cancel each other out facing each other and it doesnt do much for the performance just like adding subs to a bike. If you are in a parking lot then you are good.. Much better to use that space for amps.
