2012 Road King amp and speaker help
I just purchased a 2012 Road King Classic and I have 16" ape hangers and will have quick disconnect lower fairings. What I would like to do is put in, the Cycle Sounds Speakers or just the speaker grills with my choice of speakers, into the leather saddlebags. In addition to this I want to add speakers to the front lower fairings and have it all amp'd up to run off an Ipod or Iphone and/or Sirrus.
This way I can cruise around town with just the rear if I want or I can add the lowers and hear everything cruising down the highway.
Now this seems easy to me but I have had a hell of a time finding components to do the job. I figure I need at least one amp if not two to run the speakers and have an input through RCA or something else to run my Ipod. Then I need the speaker grill kit for the rear saddle bags and then the speaker grill kit for the lower fairings. Of course all this should be all weather capable.
Grills for the saddle bags:

Now I called Hogtunes and there amps only work with a radio and their kits don't come for Road Kings because they don't have radio head units like other touring bikes with fairings.
Can someone please help me here? I don't want handle bar mounted speakers and I don't want speakers hanging off my highway bars. I decided I would like the setup I listed above. So if anyone can help me with part or model numbers and venders that would be FANTASTIC! I am sick of sitting in front of a computer looking when I could be out riding around the GA mountains instead.

If I remember correctly the amp mounts on the down tube. Probably only able to run (2) speakers though......

No I don't want any of the Boom audio stuff. I am looking for something like this:

Only not the windshield or the rear storage.
Then put speakers in the lower fairings along with the speakers from Cycle Sound:

Now I just need to know what would be a good amp to power all four speakers and run an Ipod through it.
Any suggestions on good amps for this?
