One Amp or two?

One Amp or two?
I’m adding sound to my 2017 Road King Special. I’m thinking about Rockford Fosgate 6.5”s in fairing lowers; the 6x9 Rockford Fosgate saddlebag lid kit; one 8” woofer in each saddlebag OR two 8” woofers in one saddlebag. All controlled by an NVX BlueTooth handlebar controller.
Will one 600Watt Diamond Micro 4v2 be enough to power all six speakers with the 6.5”s and 6x9s on one channel and the 8”s on the second channel, or will I need a second amp for the 8” woofers and run the 6.5”s and 6x9s off separate channels on the first amp?
Thanks for your help!

6x9 saddlebag speakers = Rockford Fosgate TMS69BL14
8” woofers = Hertz SV200L
Audio Source = iPhone via Bluetooth controller (NVX XUBT4 or similar)
Amp = 1 x Diamond Micro4V2 or 2 x Diamond Micro2v2 orsomething else if there are suggestions?
I’m thinking maybe just put in the 6.5”s and 6x9s with a Diamond Micro4V2 amp, then if I find it’s not enough for me I can add two 8” woofers to one saddlebag using the American Hard Bag Aggressor 880 kit maybe running off the same amp. Then if that isn’t enough, pop in another amp for the 8”s. If for some reason that doesn’t make me happy, I can always add another set of 8”s to the othe saddlebag.
I’m not looking for perking lot bragging rights though. My goal is to hear my music loud and clear at 80mph on the highway.

does this sound like a reasonable progression?
