Default Need FLHTCU Amp Recommendations

I have a 2012 FLHTCU with the tour pack removed. Last year I bought the Boom fairing replacement speakers and lower fairing speaker kit. I now know there are better speakers available, but I've already bought the BOOM and would prefer to use them. I need an amp that will work with these speakers. I had originally planned to buy the Bazooka MC-HD-AMK 4-Channel amp, but it seems to be either unavailable or a lot more expensive now. I planned to use it because it was basically plug & play.

Clearly, I’m not a true audiophile. I just need something to push a little more volume from the 4 Boom speakers. I’m looking for something low to mid-range in price and not too complicated to wire in. I’m getting ready to do a handlebar swap and now would be a good time to install the speakers and amp. I appreciate any suggestions about possible amp options.

Here you go!

Keep the gains low and you'll be fine.

This one also looks to be nice for those speakers:
