Not the FLHXSE2...that amp is different from an EG or UC

What is different about the J&M amp for the SESG2?
Do you have any details?

Not exactly, but I heard that one was not coming out until the middle-end of April and is specifically for the SESG2. He said he was able to order that one already. That would be nice, but what are the odds of it coming out early?

Thanks ... maybe I'll give them a call as I'm interested in what could be different for SESG2.

Looks like this would be a very tight install - the amp is 10.5" long (looks like a re-badged Arc/Elf/Wetsounds 125.4) and getting that between the stock fairing brackets would be a challenge  . I'll probably wait for the Rockford amp as the form factor is easier to mount - it is more like mounting an Arc 125.2 (which I've done).

Also - not sure the benefit of getting the 4ch JM amp as it is 70w/ch at 4ohm load. So unless you can find quality 2ohm speakers (hard to do), or are installing ( 8 ) 4ohm speakers (2 speakers per channel wired in parallel) the output of the JM amp is 280w total. The benefit of the JM amp is that it CAN drive a 2ohm load (Rockford amp is limited to 4ohm) so it has the possibility of unique installs. One that comes to mind is for the rear channels - wiring 2 speakers in the lowers in parallel with 2 speakers in the rear pods. The RF amp could only do that if the speakers were 8ohm instead of the more common 4ohm (mobile speakers).

Anyway ... rambled on long enough. I'll give them a call and see if I can find out what is unique for SESG2. I wish they would sell the lower brackets for moving the modules separately - I bet they would sell a TON of them.

Agreed...

please post what you find out....Like I said..I'm not 100% on the info.

Isn't this new amp designed to work with the 7.25" speakers? I thought those were 2 ohm?

Ahhh ... good point.

I overlooked it as I was only interested in the amp .... have other speakers in mind.
Thanks for the clarification.

Let us know how the amp install goes.  I've seen the installation instructions for the amp and they include using a rotary tool to cut-off a couple of metal tabs used for securing harness connections to the vertical fairing brackets, and cutting off material at the bottoms of the plastic retaining cups that secure the speedo and tach to the inner fairing, probably to make more room for the amp. 

Good luck with your project.
